I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base donโ€™t even know thatโ€™s what it stands for.

Hey a thing I really donโ€™t want to get lost here is that while Tylenol doesnโ€™t cause autism, ITโ€™S FINE TO BE AUTISTIC. Letโ€™s not grant them the premise that autism should be eradicated in our way to correct the science, okay? Okay.

Gonna just say, if it's this easy to protest against the monolith that is Disney. Then there is no excuse for people to be clinging to Harry Potter. Like, if the needle can be moved against Disney, people can make it move against JK Rowling. Stop the flow of money into her accounts,

Kenya transgender rights victory hailed as African first QNews LGBTIQA+ News

it's so nice to see what a functioning judiciary looks like

"A transgender woman in the East African nation of Kenya has won a landmark court victory in which the judge not only found in her favour, but ordered the government to pass a Transgender Protection Rights Act."

Very well written summary of the history of the situation in the UK.
Trans people you don't need to read it, but it might come in very handy if you need to explain things to family or friends out there in cis world.

The Lemkin Institute for the Prevention of Genocide has gone a step further than its previous Red Flag alert, by releasing a statement calling for the rescinding of the EHRC's accreditation for violating the Paris Principles.

SO MUCH transphobia is sexual harassment.

Absolutely fucking constant public speculation and comment about our genital anatomy, ability to achieve orgasm, sexual proclivities, reproductive potentialโ€ฆ itโ€™s all sexual harassment.

Weโ€™re hearing that EHRCโ€™s updated Code is now with the Minister for Equalities.

Now, more than ever, itโ€™s critical to write to your MP to get them to pressure her for a debate & vote in Parliament, not for this Code to become statutory automatically.

Please do write; template letter linked below ๐Ÿ™

you can really see the misogyny operating as a key lever of transphobia when you realize that both trans women and trans men are considered by transphobes to be women (lying) and women (deluded), respectively

The last time I was at a studio with a layoff, a meeting was derailed because the director asked, with increasing irritation, which engineer was supposed to design a feature that underpinned the whole game. That engineer had been laid off 2 days prior, and no one else knew how to do it.

Labour conference attendees must declare sex listed on their passport The 2025 Labour Party conference will reportedly require passport gender checks for entry, an application form suggests.

This is performative cruelty at its most stupid.
1 - Lots of trans people have their lived gender identity on their passport
2 - Why? What's the point? What about attending a political conference relies on your birth genitals?

Joanne poured 70k into the Supreme Court Case which stripped trans people of basic rights then gloated about it. She is now working on doing even more damage. She has also started attacking ND people and ace folk.

Anyone involved with this project deserves to be shamed for their 'neutrality'.

If the Tories were treating trans people the way Labour is currently doing (and to be clear, Labour are treating trans people worse than the Tories ever did) the people STILL standing up for Labour would be up in arms.

hi, cis folks!

the GOP put the all-ages trans medicaid ban back in the budget, despite it being struck. they did it to force dems to challenge it on the floor.

if you've been paying attention, you know dems need to hear you want them to actually stand up to the GOP. contact info at reps.fyi ๐Ÿงต

What is the public consultation about?

On 16th April, the UK Supreme Court ruled that the terms โ€œsexโ€, โ€œmanโ€ and โ€œwomanโ€ in the Equality Act refer to โ€œbiological sexโ€ only, and do not extend to trans people with Gender Recognition Certificates (GRCs).

The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) are now updating the sections of the statutory Code of Practice for Services, Public Functions and Associations affected by the ruling. As part of this process, they are seeking public feedback on the changes they have made.

Do I need to take part in the consultation?

Ideally, we want plenty of people and organisations to respond to the consultation, to clearly and powerfully raise our concerns about how this will impact the trans and non-binary, LGBTQ+, disabled, cisgender and other communities.

However, working through the public consultation will take time and mental/emotional energy, and some people may prefer to focus their energies elsewhere.

To help with this, weโ€™ve advised on how you can respond if you have only 10 minutes; if you have 15 minutes; or if you have 30 minutes or more.
