Hey #edusky: what have I said for years about not putting images of children on your websites or socials ?

This is why

what we’ve seen from the right is the most insane case of cancel culture i’ve ever witnessed. the left has never even done close to a fraction of a fraction of what they want to do now

I'm sorry can we just go back to the part where he just gave the cops 400 pages of proof of his ongoing stalking and harassment campaign? And was somehow surprised when they charged him????

Bloody hell

4/ Supporters of the hate group in the public gallery continued to mock the victim when she was asked whether she was homophobic (per Linehan). She firmly replied “no”, and referenced her own sexual orientation.

THE NEWS AGENTS is a podcast featuring multiple well-known British journalists and produced by Global Media and Entertainment, one of the biggest media companies in Europe.

The power figures of mainstream cis UK society are now saying that incitement against trans women isn't incitement.

Some of us remember how she treated Nadine White www.theguardian.com/media/2021/j...

The Taliban has said it is “ready and willing” to work with Nigel Farage. Just think about that

Read the thread!

it's actually a health concern for me if they have hogwarts

Why did the Telegraph ask for a comment from a pop-up anti-trans troll account set up only 4 months ago by an obsessive ‘gender critical’ transphobic GP???

Could it be that they’re trying to push trans-hostile propaganda and don’t care about balance, bias, or facts??? 🤔

Text post screenshot. A transgender M&S manager addresses recent articles about them. They recount an interaction in the lingerie section where they offered help to a woman and teen. The customer declined, and the manager, who isn't a bra fitter, proceeded to put away returns. Weeks later, a complaint was filed citing the manager's "deep booming masculine voice" and "masculine facial features." The manager clarifies they never offered bra fitting advice and that their colleagues are supportive. The manager's boss dismissed the complaint, affirming their support. The manager expresses distress over the complaint's personal attacks.

A screenshot of a text post from a trans woman detailing her positive experiences working at M&S after undergoing Facial Feminisation Surgery. She describes receiving support from colleagues and management, including gifts and messages, after the surgery. The post addresses a newspaper article that insinuated M&S was not supportive, clarifying that the company has been overwhelmingly supportive. The author emphasizes that M&S allows any colleague to train as a bra fitter and any customer to book an appointment, regardless of gender identity. She also clarifies that the lingerie department and walkway to menswear are not "women only" spaces and that she does not enter occupied fitting rooms. The author concludes by stating that M&S respects her as a trans woman and a valued colleague, and that the real issue is tabloid newspapers twisting stories for profit.

Information relating to the M&S complaint, reportedly from the trans woman whom the complaint was about. Almost everything claimed in recent articles is extremely inaccurate. 1/

I mean, I'd go a step further: Noem is violating the law, and claiming an Article II exception.

A long thread on why the concessions in and around the UCPIP Bill (ie the disability benefits cuts) are illusory, disingenuous and potentially makes things worse 🧵

There are 5 big myths to bust -fifth is the most difficult to untangle, but the most significant in my view, so please do bear with 🙂

We will be at parliament today reporting on the mass lobbying day.

And we will try to keep you updated on the events as they unfold.

Wanting people to not support a corporate shill sexual abuser who pushes Islamophobic rhetoric against a fellow candidate isn't a "purity test". You shouldn't support a corporate shill sexual abuser who pushes Islamophobic rhetoric against a fellow candidate, that's just something you shouldn't do.

So, does “biological sex” mean:

A) hormone levels? (If so, trans women = women)
B) chromosomes? (If so, what about intersex people?)
C) Genitals? (If so, trans men with bottom surgery = men)

One thing that *isn’t* “biological”, is a birth certificate (that’s “certificated sex”!)

🤷🏼‍♀️

Martine Croxall must be suspended from the BBC. She won't though. Unfortunately transphobia is now protected and normalised in the UK. The sad reality is a trans person can lose their job just for being trans while a transphobe is protected at work for being transphobic.

Imagine what would have happened if a newsreader corrected “women’s rights group sex matters” to “trans segregation campaigners”.

Admittedly, I *do* suspect a song about Richard Dawkins written today would have very different things to say, but… that’s down to Dawkins…

Forget asking if Stephen Fry is back to being a national treasure (tm) now he finally fell on the right side of the JKR debacle.

MB’s back catalogue has aged well, and is always the best kind of progressive.

If you consider this thought horrific and far beyond the pale, if this thought causes outrage:

Congratulations. That is exactly the point.

If you don’t believe that “Genocide” is the right word for what is happening in Gaza with around 50,000 dead, consider this:

By this ratio (38 captives to 50K dead), a “proportional” response to Greta and 11 crewmates being kidnapped would be 16000 Israeli citizens.

ICE has only existed since 2003. A Bush-era creation, it is a militarized federal secret police that has been imbued with the Supreme Court with the unconstitutional power to ignore the fourth amendment.

Abolishing it and salting the earth where it grew is the moderate stance.

There's so much in this. The bizarre revisionist account of JK Rowling as foundational to contemporary feminism, the pompous dressing down of a 32 year old woman like she's a misbehaving kid, the fact that it's in noted feminist journal The Sun. Like a delicious platter of reasons Bindel is a joke.

Based on the reviewed evidence included in this report, it is our expert opinion that policies to prevent access to and use of GAHT for treatment of GD in pediatric patients cannot be justified based on the quantity or quality of medical science findings or concerns about potential regret in the future, and that high-quality guidelines are available to guide qualified providers in treating pediatric patients who meet diagnostic criteria.

One of the conclusions of

A much more comprehensive review than Cass and coming to the exact opposite conclusion ti Streeting.

Why is asking for accessibility always positioned as scolding?

Why do y’all hate disabled people so fucking much that a simple ask to be included disgusts you to the level that you literally attack us and high five over it?
