Clinical Psychologist Jordan Peterson and a celebrated modern intellectual chides the American Psychology Association (APA) for its trans guidelines that are dangerous and immoral.

One begs to ask, can we still trust psychologists if they no longer hold on to science but ideology?
“We have crossed the line from ideological possession to active malevolence—and we are multiplying our sin by attributing our appalling actions to ‘compassion.'” Heaven helps us. Indeed, he said.
