>Without scientific evidence, fringe political figures are increasingly blaming the existence of transgender people on environmental pollution.
>Robert Kennedy Jr. claimed on a podcast last month that "chemical exposures" were contributing to children experiencing "sexual dysphoria."
>Kennedy, an environmental activist, fretted about studies of "endocrine disruptors" including a pesticide, atrazine, that a scientist showed could make frogs grow reproductive organs of the opposing sex.
>"If it’s doing that to frogs, there’s a lot of other evidence that it's doing it to human beings as well,” Kennedy told media personality Jordan Peterson in an interview YouTube later removed from its website.
>The Kennedy campaign told Axios he misspoke when he said "sexual dysphoria." He meant "gender dysphoria," a medical term used to describe discomfort with differences between someone's sex assigned at birth and gender identity.
That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard.
And yet...
/pol/ will defend this complete fucking lunatic.
