PhD Biologist Challenges SPLC to Debate After It Accused Him of ‘Peddling Pseudoscience’ Against Transgender Orthodoxy

Ph.D. biologist Colin Wright is challenging the Southern Poverty Law Center to a public debate after the SPLC released a report claiming that Wright was pushing "psuedoscience" in opposing experimental transgender medical interventions, euphemistically referred to as "gender-affirming care."
FIRST ON THE DAILY SIGNAL—Ph.D. biologist Colin Wright is publicly inviting the Southern Poverty Law Center to debate him on the subject of what the SPLC calls “anti-LGBTQ+ pseudoscience,” specifically on the transgender issue.
The SPLC released a 41,000-word report claiming that “the controversy over trans health care is manufactured to reinforce both white supremacy and the political goals of the Christian Right.” The report claims to reveal “anti-LGBTQ+ pseudoscience,” but it does not seriously address the concerns of critics of the transgender movement.
The report mentions Wright, a Manhattan Institute fellow, as part of the movement pushing “pseudoscience.”
“It’s almost not really worth responding to,” Wright tells “The Daily Signal Podcast” of the SPLC report. “It is such a poor, poorly put together document, riddled with typos.”
