Making a List, Checking it Twice...
Evan Urquhart, founder of Assigned Media, has recently published the “Trans Data Library,” a list of people and organizations she considers to be dissidents to trans orthodoxy. This database, which went live on Wednesday morning, has now been featured in the popular LGBTQ+ news source, The Advocate.
Evan is a woman who claims the identity of a “transman,” and together with two men who claim to be “transwomen,” she started a fundraiser in order to create a propaganda campaign to silence reasonable dissent. They raised over $12,500 with a goal of $20,000 to support their project which provides detailed bios of all those they consider to be disrupting the trans narrative.
Keeping blacklists has historically been a popular tactic to target people and entities that are seen by the established power to be disruptive. The purpose of blacklisting is to tarnish reputation, create a feeling of isolation in those listed, create a feeling of suspicion in those who might seek out the listed as credible sources, and to prevent those targeted from doing their work effectively. Blacklists are retaliatory in nature and are an attempt to regain control over the parts of the narrative that have been effectively challenged by heretical truth-tellers.
When is a List Not a List?
Although the Trans Data Library contains alphabetical lists of both individuals and organizations who present testimony, research, and resources that challenge the false assumptions behind the theory and practices of gender identity as a medical notion and legal category, Urquhart claims that she has not created a list.
The gaslighting here is quite audacious. Urquhart asks the question, “How dumb do you think ppl are?” Well, we are not dumb enough to not know a list when we see one.
Trans Lies Matter
Urquhart has curated Assigned Media and the Trans Data Library using carefully crafted manipulative language. She uses hyperbole, ad hominem, and outright slander both to discredit and to avoid addressing the substance of the arguments presented by her opposition.
The about section of the Trans Data Library states:
“Bogus experts with no credentials present themselves as credible medical authorities. Activists engaged in a campaign to harm the trans community present themselves as merely concerned citizens or parents. New groups pop up all the time, purporting to be grassroots, and turn out to have the same funders, the same leadership, as groups which were previously exposed as far-right astroturfing efforts.” -TDL
Her list includes many credible authorities, such as child psychiatrist and author of, Lost in Trans Nation: A Child Psychiatrist’s Guide Out of the Madness, Miriam Grossman, therapists such as Stephanie Winn, or Sasha Ayad & Stella O’Malley of the Society for Evidence Based Gender Medicine, and physician Lisa Littman. It also includes researchers like Jennifer Bilek of the 11th Hour Blog, who has done incredible work to expose the billionaire financiers behind the trans agenda. Also featured are detransitioners like Prisha Mosley and Chloe Cole whose personal stories of medical harm directly refute the “affirmation only” policies pushed by the gender doctors. The organizations listed such as parent advocacy group Partners for Ethical or women’s sports advocacy group, Independent Council on Women’s Sports, are hardly far right.
While Urquhart would like us to believe that “The trans community is small, just by a percentage of the population. We are not wealthy. We are very marginalized. Very much struggling to survive.” This statement disguises the global scope, wealth, power, and control of the transgender ideology agenda which is being pushed by the United Nations into all its 198 member states, and is being globally driven into federal policy, public education, and whose propaganda is running 24/7 on all news, entertainment, and social media.
Former trans-rights activist and LGBT non-profit whistleblower K. Yang defines the “trans agenda” as, “Collusion between supranational governing bodies, nation states, and the private sector in tandem with corporations, media, academia, foundations and non-profit organizations to actualize legal and social change in the name of “trans” & “LGBT rights” that undermine & terminate: sex-based protections for females, child-safeguarding, and the binary of sex –male and female– as measurable categories.”
Out Leadership, the world's premier global platform used by business to drive equality and currently counts 98 of the world's most powerful companies as its members, values the total global LGBTQ+ market to be $5.2 trillion. This figure hardly represents a marginalized community struggling to survive. While Urquhart would like us to believe that the transgender movement represents the organic uprising of a marginalized class fighting for its rights, in reality, this is a highly financed globalist agenda engineered to manufacture social consent. (And to be repetitive, for more on this follow the work of Jennifer Bilek at 11th Hour Blog.)
While those who consider themselves to be part of the transgender community spin a victimization narrative and one in which they act like they are “fighting the system,” in reality they are walking arm-in-arm with government, NGO, and corporate interests. The logos listed below represent only a few of the corporate organizations and NGOs driving transgenderism into the public sphere.
Just a few short years ago, young people gathered together to Occupy Wall Street as the 99% who were fighting big baking and the 1%. Today’s trans movement represents a complete reversal. Uquhart’s “small percentage of the population” has joined with the global elite 1%.
Uquhart’s list serves a system-supportive propaganda function to silence and discredit dissent. While I am tempted to be flattered to be featured alongside so many individuals and organizations whose work I deeply respect, whose knowledge and research I rely on for my own writing, and whose courage and integrity I continue to be inspired by, I must stop myself in order to call out the sinister implications of what happens when list-makers are applauded for their lists.
We should all look to our history at other totalitarian agendas and practices and what became of the individuals on their lists. It is deeply concerning when lists start being collated and disseminated that are used to target and discredit. The biggest tactic of the entire trans agenda is to silence dissent. Authors on this list such as Abigail Shrier have had their books pulled off of Target’s shelves, organizations such as Partners for Ethical Care have had their private speaking venues shut down, activists such as myself and others have been drowned out with noise and attacked in public for attempting to hold public press conferences about this issue. This list is just one more silencing tactic.
But their best-used tactic precisely reveals to us that the absolute best thing we can do to is to continue to speak out, be loud, tell the truth, and shine a light on the lies being sold to our kids and our communities. Thank you to everyone mentioned in the list (and all those speaking out who were not listed) for continuing to do the courageous work of speaking the truth in the face of powerful opposition. Courage calls to courage.
If you look into Evan Urquhart's background you'll find she has despised women since she's been a child, which she boasts about in one of her Slate articles. She uses her job at Slate to promulgate lies - as she did in the instance of of the Wii Spa implying that the whole incident was a hoax. See Below: For a very shortened version of her articles.

Outward, A Lesbian Dilemma: All My Heroes Are Men Who Hated Women
By Evan Urquhart, Dec 15, 2014
When I was a young girl, my heroes were all men who hated women. This was before I was a butch (a bookish nerd, my style back then could best be described as slovenly androgynous), and before I knew I was gay, though not before I realized I was different. I never felt I was a boy—I’m not transgender—but, for whatever reason, the personalities I modeled my young self after were male ones. Intellectual man’s man types, to be specific. Larger-than-life dudebros, like Ernest Hemingway or Christopher Hitchens. I imagined myself growing up to be an overbearing, ruthless lawyer like Jack McCoy, aka Sam Waterston’s character on Law & Order, or an angry writer denouncing idiocy wherever I found it (and finding it everywhere) like Kurt Vonnegut. Because the superiority of male people over female ones was all but unquestioned in Western culture through the mid-20th century, this meant they also tended to be the men who considered femininity to be roughly synonymous with weakness and stupidity.
To some extent, this would be true for anyone who took famous men as role models. But my fondness for sexists went far beyond mere coincidence. The sorts of guys I idolized were those least likely to be sensitive to their own sexist impulses, because what I liked best about them was that they weren’t “sensitive” to anything. Competitive, casually self-assured men. Men who were certain they were superior to everyone else and held to the superiority of men over women as an unconsidered corollary. Men who considered their loudmouthed obnoxiousness to be an asset or, at worst, a minor character flaw. That’s the sort of person my young self-imagined growing into, until I realized I was actually a woman—which meant assuming that kind of personality would present a problem.
When I say I realized this, I don’t mean to imply I had a sudden, startling revelation about my femaleness. I’d always understood I was a she, and I never wanted to be otherwise. And yet somehow I was convinced that the disparaging things my male heroes said about women didn’t apply to me, not because they were untrue about females generally, but because I must not be the sort of female they were talking about. Being a strange kid helped—I had the overdeveloped intellect and underdeveloped social skills that precocious children of all genders seem to share. Since I was comfortable with being different, the masculine aspects of my personality were one more oddity among many. These oddities allowed me to nod comfortably along with sections of a novel where the author paused a moment to explain that women were like such-and-so, and then got back to the important parts, which had men in them.
For instance: “The women all had big minds, because they were big animals, but they did not use them much for this reason: unusual ideas could make enemies, and the women, if they were going to achieve any sort of comfort and safety, needed all the friends they could get.” That’s from Breakfast of Champions, by Kurt Vonnegut, which I read in sixth grade, along with Jailbird and The Sirens of Titan. I thought Kurt Vonnegut was the greatest, that I’d grow up to be just like him, and that he was totally right about women (who seemed to be way dumber than my buddy Kurt and I were).

Violence Over an Alleged Transphobic Hoax Shows the Danger of Underestimating Anti-Trans Hate
Police reportedly suspect the viral L.A. Wi Spa video is fake—but it still got two people stabbed.. By Evan Urquhart, July 09, 20214:12 PM
A locker room at an upscale spa. The sort of locker room trans women have every right to be in.
On July 3, an anti-transgender protest outside a Los Angeles spa resulted in two stabbings—all over a social media post that police are now treating as a hoax. Back on June 24, a user called cubanangel posted a video on Instagram showing her and at least two other women confronting a staff member at Wi Spa on Wilshire Boulevard in Koreatown about having seen “a man with a penis” in the women’s changing area. “I’m recording this because I’m gonna make a big deal. I’m gonna take this very worldwide,” she explains, kicking off four minutes berating the staff member over the queer-friendly spa’s nondiscrimination policy.
Soon after the video began to go viral in transphobic corners of the internet, members of the trans community began to raise questions about it—chief among them why the video cuts out as the woman marches downstairs to confront this person she’s allegedly seen, conveniently ending before the trans woman she’s so angry about is shown. The woman also repeatedly mentions children being exposed to a penis, while no children appear on the video and the group don’t appear to have any children with them. These early doubts have been bolstered by reporting from the Los Angeles Blade that police suspect a hoax after failing to find witnesses who saw a trans woman at the spa, and that Wi Spa claims none of their trans clients had scheduled appointments that day.
. Perhaps this is why outrage over the possibility that a trans woman may have changed her clothes in the appropriate facilities grew and grew, culminating in the protest outside Wi Spa, which included a contingent of violent extremists from the far right. The two stabbing victims were attacked by an anti-trans protester: One was a counterprotester; the other apparently a “friendly stab” incident where a fellow protester was hit by mistake.
Anti-trans activism is often thought of as a sideshow or a distraction, but these events show the real dangers of an increasingly extremist anti-trans backlash.
Update, Aug. 2, 2021: On July 30, Los Angeles Magazine reported that five women, including the one who initially posted the Wi Spa video, have filed police reports alleging to have witnessed “male genitals” exposed in the women’s section of the spa on June 23. This does not contradict previous reporting by the Los Angeles Blade that LAPD sources suspected the incident to have been a hoax.
I was looking for a repository of clever and respectable arguments from diligent researchers on this issue. So I would like to say, thank you for compiling one Evan Urquhart!
I felt like I had read everything and now I have been provided with an indexed library. This will look VERY interesting on the internet archive in 20 years!
And further Evan, just keep speaking, the world is peaking!
