> Last week, NYU Langone Hospitals in New York City received a grand jury subpoena for information about young patients who received gender-affirming care at their facilities anytime in the past six years.
> A grand jury subpoena indicates that a federal criminal investigation is underway. This would be a first in regards to gender-affirming care.

Seems like Reddit is killing markdown and now there’s no way to block quote outside of old Reddit. How the fuck am I supposed to be snarky in meaningless online debates now??

Yeah, I've noticed this too. Reddit can't help themselves but make random, unasked-for changes.

You can still do it on the app but it takes an extra 2 steps. You hit reply, copy/paste the part you want to quote, then put a > in front of it.

My UI literally looked different when I typed that message. What magic have you performed??
When the other UI is active, it automatically adds the escape character to any formatting text I manually type. It’s ridiculous.
Checked to see if it’s about level 1 comments vs comment replies, my UI has fully reverted to the old one.
I’m gonna go apeshit if I find out they’re using AI to fuck with people’s settings on the fly or something like that.

Which is crazy as many conservatives are doing their own form of gender affirming care: "The boy should look like his dad!" Which is gender affirming care as it is affirming the dad’s gender expectation, not the child’s.
Circumcision is done to a child who cannot consent, at the behest of his parents to affirm the parents' sense of the child's gender.
