That’s how it’s done! McGovern said “We need to stop the virus of trans ideology” and Bozo says she “called trans people a virus.” Calling an ideology a virus is not calling the people infected by it a virus, just as calling Covid a virus is not calling the people infected by it a virus. The ideology is the virus, and it’s very very harmful to people, especially their brains and their critical faculties.

Willoughby has finally blocked me. I was surprised he hadn’t done it long ago; I’ve been a vocal non-admirer for a long time.
