Transphobia in sports cannot be meaningfully separated from white supremacy in sports. They use the same racist excuses against trans people, and the same transphobic excuses against black people (see: all the black athletes that get banned for not being feminine (read: white) enough). And the transphobes even have their own transgender pseudoscience they use as justification, much like their race science of last century.

Sorta related, what’s with the UK and so many shitty sensationalist right-wing tabloids? Like, fox news is probably our most insane mainstream fake news outlet, why do they have so many?
