NYT Mangles Fact Check Of GOP Debate

The New York Times (NYT) somehow managed to mangle multiple attempts to “fact check” of the Republican debate.

When businessman Vivek Ramaswamy claimed that “transgenderism, especially in kids, is a mental health disorder,” the Times rated his claim “false,” arguing that “being transgender is not a mental health disorder.”

“Many transgender people experience gender dysphoria, or psychological distress as a result of the incongruence between their sex and their gender identity,” the “fact check” continues. “Gender dysphoria is a diagnosis in the psychiatric Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders and can be given to children, adolescents or adults.”
