I'm ngl it kinda kills me that the thing that is killing Hank Green and making him go through mass cancellation is him saying that he sometimes uses AI for research.
Like not the horrible video on hrt, no of course not. Loudly and proudly declaring "we don't hire transfems here at scishow"? Nobody gives a shit!
But say "i used Claude as a search engine for academic articles" and every creator on youtube takes turns shitting you as you go into fucking witness protection.
There is a connection here with that post I saw the other day about how being performatively anti-AI can be a way to loudly declare one's commitment to "good values" without actually having to care about uplifting any marginalized communities
Damn, they announced they don't hire trans women? Was it in the video they took down?
In the video that was eventually taken down, after they finish the transfem hrt section, they segue into the transmasc hrt section by saying "and now for the part our writing team actually has experience with"
Definitely not great, but it's more of a "we haven't hired any trans women" than a "we don't" or "we won't"
Still iffy and concerning, but not the outright discrimination I thought it'd be
