What exactly do you mean by "scientific position"? The term seems, to me, an absurdity.
> Doesn't make it okay.
Putting aside any actual wrongdoing, attacking those with privilege is infinitely better than attacking those without: the former have the resources to defend themselves; the latter do not.

In the same way your stance on climate change is a scientific position regardless if your stance is correct or not. > the former have the resources to defend themselves; the latter do not. It's still an evil to unjustly attack someone even if to different degrees.

Can you please just give the definition of "scientific position" that you are using? Do you mean an assertion regarding reality? Because I think everyone agrees on the reality. The question of what the words "sex" and "gender" constitute is not a question of reality: it is a question of social and legal constructs. > It's still an evil to unjustly attack someone even if to different degrees. Yep.
