I think they are saying this dude is so cuck that he is raising his wife and non-existent brothers child.
Biology is complicated. Never forget when you try to make an argument based on it.
𝘣𝘜𝘵 𝘪𝘛'𝘚 𝘉𝘢𝘚𝘪𝘊 𝘉𝘪𝘖𝘭𝘖𝘨𝘠! is always said about how trans people can't be trans.
I mean, 2+2 is just basic math but quantum physics is a little more complicated than basic math. Biology tends to get more complicated when you pass Grade 2.
The issue with that comparison is that math is constructed from pure logic based on axioms, whereas the real world just is and our mental models can always only approximate reality.
So basic math still applies at any higher level, whereas basic biology is contextualized by the exceptions and limitations pointed out by advanced biology.
