No, I’m still on X but this sounds like the sort of false claim that NZ’s CEO drag queen β€œMiss Representations First” would make.

BREAKING: PATHA has filed an urgent injunction in the high court seeking to prevent the puberty blocker ban from coming into force, as part of an urgent judicial review we are seeking to overturn the ban entirely.

I would say there is quite a bit of overlap since in her video podcast that goes along with the article, Penny Marie starts by saying there might be a paedophile ring here before talking about Ardern and Robertson and the Rainbow Wellbeing Fund. So this is all QAnon/Pizzagate adjacent.

Indeed. In part two, I'll be covering how MLMs often target women and issues around self-esteem and intentionally weaponise the emotion of shame, both to recruit and keep people in, and to silence people when they quit, just like other destructive cult groups do.

I think it was likely meant to be a reference to CSAM, an acronym for child sexual abuse material.

The Cass Review - Intro The biggest review into healthcare for transgender youth

Why are the anti-vaxxers all anti-trans now? The anti-vax coalition was adrift for a moment after Covid measures were dropped but now it’s galvanised around genitals.

Indeed. πŸ«‚ Franklin D. Roosevelt said β€˜I ask you to judge me by the enemies I have made’. I get it since I’ve had anti-vax and anti-trans Wolf packs put me on blast - those two groups overlap a lot of course. www.webworm.co/p/screamingh...
