4. "There are lists of 'gender affirming' doctors, who all approach patient care differently, being shared on government platforms."
The use of the word "platforms" here is slightly confusing, because it feels like it's suggesting Australian governments are running public #Mastodon instances or something (are they? I hadn't heard). Actually, though, I think this is referring to, at least, the "#GenderIncongruence" page [1] on the #AustralianGovernment's HEALTHDIRECT service, which is mentioned by Cross shortly afterwards.
The page says this: "You can find a list of gender-affirming clinicians at TransHub [2] and AusPATH [3]."
This part of the article seems like another version of the narrative also favoured by the ABC's #MediaWatch [4], to the effect that "it's wrong for government to cite or consult external experts in any way". I personally have only ever seen journalists try that one when attacking trans people — and, I expect, other marginalised groups — because in any context other than discrediting authorities who defend marginalised people, it would be correctly recognised as blatantly absurd.
