I understand that maybe individual creators can't change the system, but then the system is not fit for purpose.
Normalising terrible things is, itself, a terrible thing.

A while ago I stopped listening to a podcast because one of the adverts they ran was for a podcast by a "psychic". I didn't care that the advert came from their network. I didn't care that they probably didn't have much agency in the advert. I unsubscribed and emailed them why.

If we get rid of it we won't get a replacement for generations.
To reform it we need significant political power.
As it exists it is a mouthpiece for right-wing propaganda with a claim it's balanced.
I don't know how we move to a better answer.
Labour is to the right of Anne Widdecombe and Nigel Farage.

Like, I'm an old, old tran and I have happily had all sorts of conversations about terminology and trends both within & without the community but "person I don't know talking about their rape" seems like a thread that should be treated with, at the very least, respect and kindness, not blundering in

That, and Nazis are bullies & cowards and even the state apparatus isn't enough to protect them from what will happen soon enough.
For Women Scotland, the hate group made up of deeply twisted individuals who once wrote a bizarre sexualised poem about me as a child and posted it to their twitter account, are accusing Equality Network of "grooming" because they print fun LGBTQ+ stickers.
The Times is boosting their hate message.
I think I saw the inspiration for that nonsense and thought "this is something I would like to have a conversation about but this is not the time or place" and then didn't post.
Why do some people not have that voice or choose not to listen to it?
JK Rowling tweeting got a boycott of M&S, stretching facts to the breaking point, and making the world a worse place for absolutely everyone.
The employee asked the girl and her mother if they needed help shopping. Thatβs it. Thatβs all. The misinformation, the insinuations (because the facts are inconveniently benign) are EXACTLY what was done to lesbians in the 80s. This is the product of hate and fear, not reality.
