04.08.2025 07:40 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Hey everyone! Queers for Palestine, Trans Kids Deserve Better, The Dyke Project, London Trans Pride, Fag Revolt and RS21 Are calling the entire queer and trans community to join us outside the vile Wes Streeting's constituency office. We are responding to the Palestinian Youth Movement's call for a 'Siege on Labour' on Monday: When: Monday 4th August at 6 PM Where: 12a Highview Parade, Ilford, IG4 5EP (15 minute walk from Gants Hill central line station) ? Why: Wes Streeting and the vicious 'Labour Party' are accomplices in the zionist-made famine in Gaza. Streeting is also responsible for the deaths of many trans kids past and future. We are taking unified action across the country on Monday with these demands: 1. A full two-way arms embargo on Israel 2. An end to British RAF surveillance flights over Gaza 3. For the British government to use all UN and sanctions levers to force Israel to allow aid into Gaza 4. For David Lammy to resign as foreign minister after lying to the public about arms sales to Israel This government is dripping in the blood of our trans siblings and of the Palestinian people. We must act together to force Labour to meet these demands.

It's like someone saying their belief is eugenics it goes against equality act therefore can't be or shouldn't be included in a protected belief.
I think my issue was trying to get together with straight girls when I wasn't fooling anyone that I was a guy.

saying 'they have spoken out against transphobia in the past!' doesn't mean anything bcos we keep getting burned.
we keep getting sacrificed.

It must be an establishment love him (or are mates) with him and so his works get promoted because there's loads of struggling queer authors who are much better writers.

So weird, huh?
According to my partner there's a big poster in the breast screening place saying breast cancer can affect everyone (though obviously is people running on estrogen are more susceptible).

It's just being used as an excuse to be violent against anyone who doesn't look enough like a woman (both cis & trans).
If โchanging your sexโ were impossible, they wouldnโt need to ban it.
