    Wild that he blames “gender ideology” for this. “Gender ideology” didn’t make him hate himself for being an effeminate gay man. A culture of homophobia and toxic masculinity did. He thought transitioning would help him escape the toxicity of that culture and it didn’t and that’s a tragedy. But he was pressured to be something he’s not, not by “gender ideology,” because that seeks to affirm the rights of individuals to be whomever they want, but by the overbearing traditionalists who wrecked his mental health trying to make him fit into a neat gender confirming role.

      Let’s make sure we don’t just automatically believe this is real, until it is verified in some way. It would be very easy to entirely fake this, and Fox has a history of running plenty of unverified everything.
