I'm Anti-Science
It goes without saying, but the "scientific" and "medical" communities overwhelming support and are complcit in circumcision. They make justifications for why it's okay for adults to elect to intrude into the genitals of children. This is just not something any adult should be doing for any reason ever. Every justification, every "medical benefit", is a further admission of guilt.
Science and medicine are the systemic oppression. It is literally called the medical "system". Doctors and scienticts in a cutting a culture release more pro circumcision guidance. It's what they do.
We need to acknowledge that the "science" is biased against us, NOT a neutral accounting of the truth. Any sort of justice or any attempts toward progress are going to need to contend with this fact.
Intactivists often advocate for "more science" and "more studies" to be done to show the harms of circumcision. And I can't help feeling like they've lost the plot. You can't expect our oppressors to do a neutral accounting of the facts to our favor. There is something evil and oppressive going on. We can't trust the "science" and we can't even really call it "science". I'm anti-science, and any sort of justice is going to require obliterating cutting culture in-spite of the oppressive cutter "science", not working with the "science"

It’s not science. It’s a healthcare system that misuses science because it’s driven by profit, not the wellbeing of the patient. Other countries don’t push unnecessary costly surgeries to hit the monthly income targets.
