Amazon doesn’t allow “Smile” to go to hate groups and of course the religious fanatics are hopping mad.
Amazon has barred the book "Irreversible Damage: The Transgender Craze Seducing Our Daughters" from their Smile program, the funds were going to go to the Family Research Council (FRC),
The Family Research Council has spent decades saying that LGBTQ people are pedophiles. Why was Amazon giving them cash in the first place?LGBTQ NationBy Alex BollingerJune 23, 2020Amazon just kicked an anti-LGBTQ hate group out of its charity program, and Christian conservatives are decrying the corporation’s “bias against conservatives.”Amazon runs a program, AmazonSmile, that donates money to charities customers can pick from a list of approved organizations.Until earlier this month, customers could choose to have Amazon give a portion of their purchases to the Family Research Council (FRC), an organization dedicated to opposing LGBTQ rights.But the Washington Times‘s Kay C. James reports that FRC has been removed from the list of charities customers can choose, complaining that all hate groups are banned from AmazonSmile.[…]Two years ago, Amazon booted the Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) – another anti-LGBTQ hate group – from AmazonSmile.
The ADF is the legal organization that has filed a law suit against the towns and the Connecticut Interscholastic Athletic Conference (CIAC) for allowing trans athletes.
Look how the conservative Wall Street Journal (Is owned by Rupert Murdoch who owns Fox) covers the story.
The company won’t allow a publisher’s ads for my skeptical book.The Wall Street JournalBy Abigail ShrierJune 22, 2020If you write a book celebrating troubled teenage girls suddenly coming out as “transgender” in friend groups, pursuing a regimen of cross-sex hormones and surgeries—Amazon will happily promote it. But if you write a book that points out the risks of this gender journey, Amazon wants nothing to do with you.In fact, the book has nothing to do with sexual orientation. Building on the work of Brown University public health researcher, Lisa Littman, “Irreversible Damage” argues that transgender identification among teen girls has become a social contagion. Girls who might have encouraged each other in bulimia, anorexia or cutting are today deciding they have “gender dysphoria,” pushing for hormones and surgeries—and easily obtaining them.
Okay lets stop there for a bit.
“Building on the work of Brown University public health researcher” if you don’t know about Lisa Littman you can read my blog article here and here. But basically her research was flawed by the way she did her research on trans children transitioning, instead of interviewing the children she interviewed the parents and she found the parents on a conservative website. She gave the title of the transitioning of trans children the fancy name “Rapid Onset Gender Dysphoria” or ROGD.
The Christian CBN wrote,
The author previously told CBN News that she does hear from parents on this serious issue of young females who suddenly want a new gender identity, but that some don't acknowledge it enough."I do hear from parents, but to be honest, I don't hear from enough to some extent," she said. "I don't think Democrats particularly are awake to the issue."
A commenter on WSJ said it best…
Conservative author with no medical qualifications writes book dismissing gender dysphoria. Conservative commenters with no medical qualifications jump on the bandwagon with feigned outrage. Lather, rinse, repeat...
