RoccamOccam writes: U.S. Vice President JD Vance joined Bluesky with the post "Hello, Bluesky, I've been told this app has become the place to go for common sense political discussion and analysis. So I'm thrilled to be here to engage with all of you." His post included a screenshot from the United States Supreme Court Decision that upheld Tennessee's law barring "gender-affirming" treatments on minors.
He then wrote "To that end, I found Justice Thomas's concurrence on medical care for transgender youth quite illuminating. He argues that many of our so-called 'experts' have used bad arguments and substandard science to push experimental therapies on our youth. I might add that many of those scientists are receiving substantial resources from big pharma to push these medicines on kids. What do you think?".
He was banned 11 minutes later.

I think that adding, "many of those scientists are receiving substantial resources from big pharma to push these medicines on kids," crossed far enough over the line to get him banned.

Filthy slander is not an "invitation to debate."

No one is stopping you from offering "proof" that the doctors prescribing what are mostly unpatented _generic_ medications are acting out of allegiance to some specific person or company in the pharmaceutical industry rather than endeavoring to solve the problem their patient presents them with. Go right ahead. Knock yourself out.
