HHS Study Links Radical Gender Ideology To Left-Wing Authoritarianism, Support For Political Violence
- A Department of Health and Human Services study found that individuals endorsing radical gender ideology are more likely to hold left-wing authoritarian beliefs and justify political violence.
- The study surveyed 1,208 U.S. adults and identified significant correlations between support for gender-affirming clinical positions and justification for six hypothetical acts of political violence, controlling for political identity and age.
- Researchers stated the study does not establish causality between gender ideology beliefs and authoritarianism or violence, nor did it measure whether respondents had committed or intended to commit violent acts but only their justification for such acts.
- The Human Rights Campaign criticized the study as politically motivated or biased, condemning political violence and emphasizing that transgender people deserve dignity and are human beings rather than an ideology.
