Eva Kurilova is a Canadian writer and thoughtful critic of today’s gender ideology.

In this episode, she explores how the word “queer” is often misunderstood as a sexual orientation, when in fact it represents a broader ideological identity—one rooted in opposition to normativity and permanence in grievance. We dig into how this framework has helped justify the medicalization of vulnerable children, particularly through gender-affirming care, even as countries like the UK, the United States, and Sweden move toward far more cautious, evidence-based policies.

We also highlight Canada’s silence—and how our media and institutions have largely abandoned this conversation, leaving the public unaware that the global conversation has already moved on.

If you’re worried about the erosion of biological reality, the medicalization of children, and the consequences of turning identity into ideology, this conversation is essential listening.
