a new political office who’s sole purpose is to determine if trans people should have rights or not.

We already have that smh: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minister_for_Women_and_Equalities

A Council of Europe report[6][7] in September 2021 criticised the Minister for Equalities, stating that rhetoric from the minister is in contradiction with international human rights standards and has contributed to a sharp increase in transphobic crimes since 2015.

They’re basically reassuring her that they’re still transphobic enough for her to support after she went against them to endorse the Communist Party of Britain because one of their candidates put out a really transphobic statement for their election (but then CPB disavowed their member’s statement in a really limp wristed way to try and maintain the facade that they’re still the social centrists in between the former party RFB and CPGB-ML so she took back her endorsement)

We’re at new new labour now smh

Knowing how transphobic Streeting is the “simplification” of the process will probably be banning it all together

Also how labour is literally getting policy advice from JK Rowling: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/labour-jk-rowling-rachel-reeves-labour-party-douglas-ross-b2567853.html

iirc from growing up in a church school and all the Bible study bits I did growing up, there’s a bit in the bible where jesus says that if someone tries to kidnap and enslave someone they should pay a fine to the parents in addition to the punishment they’d receive from the law which some people twist around into trying to imply that jesus was saying kidnapping and enslaving people is ok as long as you pay a fine to the parents.

once you’ve set up an account try clicking through the link to the chat i sent you again

Have you made a matrix account?

There’s a blahaj matrix chat, lemme just find the link to it

In future I’d advise using the term cis woman instead of biological woman because biological woman has a history of being used as a transphobic term by TERFs to delegitimise trans people, especially in the UK.

I think micro plastics in our anything will probably be an issue

They have very simple demands, they’re not giving some pie in the sky stuff like “have Joe Biden tried for war crimes and abolish capitalism” or something; the protests all have demands along the lines that their university boycott Israeli companies and cut ties with weapons manufacturers aiding the genocide. To claim otherwise is completely infantalising to the protestors who are risking their university positions and physical health to protest despite the police crackdowns.

Here’s a link to the list of demands of the student protest in new York, for instance

And here’s a picture of the list of the demands of the columbia faculty protest:

Unfortunately here in the UK there isn’t a leftwing paper that’s pro trans

There’s Novara Media but it’s not really one of the big boys compared to the others. They did a decent video of Judith Butler being interviewed by the lady from that “I’m literally a communist you idiot!” Piers Morgan clip about three weeks ago titled “Anti-trans ideology threatens all of our freedoms”

Notably all of the british press that pushed this story and have been constantly trying to undermine trans people, are completely ignoring this. this country sucks :(

Harry Styles maybe?

Yeah, in British politics transphobia is very much a bipartisan position shared with only rare exceptions by the right, the left, the far right and the far left. Shit sucks fr.

The BBC very notably has a very strong transphobic bias. For instance, on the day of Israel bombing the Iranian embassy I remember BBC radio 4 news spent more time talking about JK Rowling’s tweets about the new Scottish hate speech laws that banned discrimination against trans people and then interviewed a prominent Scottish TERF to give a puffpiece interview about her TERF org and how great JK Rowling is (notably they didn’t interview a single trans person) than they spent on the bombing of the embassy. Also a few days ago they gave a great deal of air time to the Cass Report which was basically made as a hitpiece trying to push for banning anyone under the age of 25 from transitioning (they then completely ignored all the criticism it received for it’s awful scientific method).

i’ve told you this like three months ago when you last did it but i’ll explain it again, i got a report on one of your comments, and i dismissed the comment without removing it. Ada, the instance admin, then undismissed the report because she felt i should do something about it so iirc i removed the comment and put in a temp ban, then you immediately spent the next week accusing random people of being sockpuppets of me, report spamming the comm, and replying to every single post i made, that’s when you earned a permanent ban on all of your accounts - the ban reason wasnt for transphobia, it was for being a weird internet freak over being banned from a comm you had literally never posted in before.

Yeah, it sucks fr. the governor who let this go through without vetoing it was literally a dem herself.

America is literally constructing its own Great Firewall of America rn

iirc the death sentence is just being used as a motivation for her to return all the stuff she got from corruption and if she does it’ll be downgraded to life in prison
