The Mundane Transfeminine

Lol well one thing ill say is that if the ruling was the other way around there wouldn’t be questions would there. It would have been a declaration trans people are finally segregated but anything remotely trans inclusive Must be questioned

"This quote comes from a different recent court case but is exactly as quoted" is the kind of judgement correction that simply wouldn't be a headline in any place where our media wasn't institutionally committed to furthering the demonisation and segregation of trans people from society

lain Macwhirter ® @iainmacwhir.... 2h X Note that Sandie Peggie's allegedly Islamophobic remarks - about Sharia law etc - have not led to her being cancelled, sacked or otherwise vilified (not that it hasn't been tried). This is a significant moment. Catriona Stewart @CatrionaSte... • 6h NEW: Sandie Peggie's solicitor Margaret Gribbon confirms there will be an appeal of the employment tribunal judgment in her case against NHS Fife.

Saying it out loud quite happily now

It’s too delicious

Their *daughter’s* anguish in this case.

Hate-addled white supremacist brute turns out to be an antivaxx wingnut as well.

Will wonders never cease.

Trans women aren’t men and she should not have a right to deny us equality with cisgender women, degrade us, socially exclude us, and render us at best third-class citizens, you grotesque freak.

Also, you know full well that the racism isn’t some incidental factor. Bigotry is core to who she is.

i fucking hate living in the uk.

these ppl just refuse to leave us alone.

On the News Agents, Jon does an apparently pointless monologue about the Cuban missile crisis & how Venezuela is not like that because it’s not a threat to world order. Then Emily jumps in & explains that if Maduro is arming Russia(?!?), maybe it *is* a threat to the world order 🧐

i've thought of a dozen jokes to make here but, bluntly, this is just going to be deployed in an arbitrary fashion, with few opportunities to appeal decisions or understand what motivated them. it will further disadvantage groups already being profiled and contribute to a lot of pain.

115 Democrats just voted to codify the first federal trans segregation law.

Transmedicalism is when I wanted HRT in 2003 and the cis man doctor told me that I wasn't trans because I wore jeans, was able to have intercourse with a cis woman, and didn't respond to his flirting with me

He insisted i needed therapy and refused to even put me on the path of maybe qualifying

The women who don't understand that women's rights and queer rights rise and fall in lockstep are still calling themselves "feminists", while sawing vigorously at the branch they themselves are standing on.

Daily Telegraph front page with more than half the page given to a photo of Sharron Davies under the headline "Peerage for women's champion Davies"

"women's champion"

She has refused to condemn or speak out about the sexual abuse of people in sport she actually knows.

I made a complaint about this. It won't make any difference by itself but bombarding the BBC with complaints and hassling their journos on socials might get us somewhere. www.bbc.co.uk/contact/comp...

Another way of putting this would be to say that the people the British media recognises and promotes as authorities entitled to speak on behalf of Jewish people are all very right wing cranks, and so they are basically fine with Farage because he too hates all the people that they despise.

No, he’s a fool.

That isn’t inconsistent with knowing what he’s doing in this particular case.

Another way to interpret this: The Washington Post endorses re-segregation of American society.

man, the collective grief from older trans people at the violent death of the world we briefly hoped was coming, a world in which trans children would be recognised, loved, and helped...

yeah.

JONATHAN FREEDLAND: Why Britain’s Jewish leaders are silent on Farage’s schoolyard antisemitism While the Reform UK leader and his allies smear accusers as liars, the Board, JLC and HET remain mute, fearing the wrath of a rising politician

This could be boiled down to "Guys, you're embarrassing me". That explains why it's in Jewish News and not the Guardian, but it also explains why Freedland is prepared to admit for once that the "official community's" attitude has always been political.

Meta shuts down global accounts linked to abortion advice and queer content More than 50 organisations report sites being restricted or removed, with abortion hotlines blocked and posts showing non-explicit nudity triggering warnings

Meta didn't allow anti LGBTQ slurs again because of free speech, it's because they hate LGBTQ people and want us gone.

bluesky will suspend palestinians for requesting help, trans women for defending their humanity, the spouses of ice's victims for expressing their outrage, shitposters for talking shit about their c-suite, and then onboard a fascist government engaged in naked criminality and human rights abuses.

You seem confused about hatred in general.

That one can readily predict that somebody is going to engage in despicable acts before they do so is not a factor that militates against hatred in any way. Arguably, the reverse is the case.

We hate them because they do hateful things. Pretty simple.

The US People would benefit enormously from a full Federal purge in DC and a new election to replace all seats. Supreme Court included.

Our federal government no longer serves us. It hasn’t for decades. A government that doesn’t serve the people should not stand. It’s a clear argument.

In that they’re both amongst the vilest pieces of shit imaginable?

It just goes to show how intellectually and morally bankrupt Blairism has always been.

It gets better.

It appears that we learn, again, it is not a good idea to put trust in Steve Hsu.

the worst part is how effective it all is

if you're the average person out there casually skimming over 50 headlines a week saying "being transgender is bad and trans people are evil" - not even reading the main body.

You're gonna start to believe it. That's just how persistence works.

This is so bad let me just run you through how other orgs described Sharron for context;

BBC = ex Olympic swimmer and campaigner
indy = ex Olympic swimmer
sky = ex Olympic swimmer
telegraph = campaigning for biological men to be excluded from women's sport.

only the guardian have done this.
