Cis Staight Ally: I'm so livid Transgender: OH, why's that? Staight Ally: Because of Talarico and Acton Transgender: Ah, I see. So what is it they did to make you so incredibly livid? Transgender: They might eventually come after gay marriage and women's rights Transgender: 🫤

Trans+ people and allies have one power left to hold transphobic politicians to account: their vote Yet, apparently, Trans+ people are now the real problem - “lunatics” who should surrender their vote, trust the politicians targeting them, and live with the consequences Cool

Will Stancil@whstancil.bsky.social · yesterday

It’s like clockwork: three months before a critical election, people start up with the “don’t for Dems! Teach them a lesson by NOT voting” lunacy.

More than a festival. More than a day out. Black On The Square puts Black culture and creativity centre stage in the heart of the capital.

No, I don’t live in Texas I’m a Londoner. I live in London I’ve watched firsthand what happens when people convince themselves and others they must vote for the marginally less transphobic candidate/party It leads to state mandated country wide segregation, forced outing, conversion therapy abuse

Allison Gill@muellershewrote.com · 2d ago

I think about we could get Talarico to evolve his thinking like we got Obama to evolve to accept marriage equality. I don’t think that about Ken Paxton. And it’s one or the other. Do you live in Texas?

Here’s the link to the @greenparty.org.uk statement I strongly believe that, in her previous statements, @leftiestats.bsky.social has misled people about the reasons for her suspension However, something is amiss with this party statement

CW/TW: Violence, abuse, sexual abuse transphobia Two cis women have been convicted of torturing, raping, and murdering Sam Nordquist, a Black Trans man who was just looking for love Another five cis predators have also been charged with their complicity in his death

Two women get life in prison for brutally torturing transgender man to death

Sam Nordquist’s family confronted Precious Arzuaga and Jennifer “Brooklyn” Quijano before they were sentenced without the possibility of parole.

I'm inclined to agree with Kat on this matter There are good reasons to question Eleanor's allegation that she has been suspended because she's a Trans woman Todays @greenparty.org.uk, while not perfect - misogyny/transmisogyny is still an issue - is a very different party from five years ago

Kat Bristow@kathrynbristow.uk · 6d ago

I don't think that Stats for Lefties was suspended for being trans. I say this as someone that was suspended by the same Green Party body as Eleanora, in my case it was for being trans back in 2021 when the party was in a very different place than it is today. www.opendemocracy.net/en/trans-uk-...

Jaysus, the things these journos have to say just to hang on to their job Yeah, sure, Peter, that "cosy" conference during which multiple women were physically attacked by vilolent Reform members while gleeful Reform leadership laughed

Peter Walker@peterwalker99.bsky.social · 7d ago

Thinking back on the Reform UK conference, one of the big impressions it left was *cosiness*. This sounds odd given the rhetoric, but it reminded me of some Tory conferences and Labour under Corbyn, where it was often a comfort blanket for members, with no beliefs or failures really challenged.

A human can only survive 2-7 days without clean water, whereas we can survive in perpetuity without datacenters. Choose wisely.

No Trans+ person, no matter who they are, their gender, their background, or what they happen to be doing, have anywhere near the privilege or support that white cishet men like Farage and his mates enjoy when they're caught being corrupt and doing crime

Lee Hurley@hleehurley.com · 7d ago

I can say, with 100% confidence that, although the papers have covered Farage being caught in that sting, the coverage across the board has been less intense than a trans person just existing in the sphere of a transphobe.

It’s entirely by design that Burnham’s Labour - supported by Sex Matters, LBA Alliance, the British media, the courts, and others - are ensuring that it's almost impossible for Trans+ people to access any kind of Trans Healthcare This isn’t an unintended consequence It's their desired outcome

Misogyny is rife in the British media, and @thecanaryuk.bsky.social has shown that it is no exception If they think attacking and libeling women from @feministgreens.bsky.social is acceptable, they’ve made their position very clear 1.

3 statements, no action. Thousands of trans people across Wales voted Plaid because they were promised a better, happier future for trans people in Wales. Plaid have been keen to continue this rhetoric - but rhetoric alone will not help the people suffering because of NHS Wales decisions.

First Minister John Swinney and the rest of the SNP have made a choice: To continue to protect the conversion therapy abuse practitioners - and their advocates - rather than their victims who each and every day are harmed by them

Scottish Greens@scottishgreens.org · 2w ago

A ban on conversion practices has been promised again and again by the Scottish Government, but this week the SNP have delayed it again. Far too many people have endured the fear, shame and trauma of these dehumanising practices. We need a ban now.

First Minister Swinney (SNP) and PM Burnham (Labour) have a serious reality problem They seem to have completely missed the huge extent to which Queer voters helped destroy Starmer’s political career

ECT Scotland@endconversiontherapy.scot · 2w ago

Today the @snp.org made Scotland the only UK nation without a bill to ban conversion practices. This is not good enough. If they won't stand up for our rights, we'll do it without them.

Exactly, Martina, you transphobic crank. You have no way of knowing whether there are Trans women playing in the WNBA, because: - Women's bodies vary enormously - There are cis women who are bigger and stronger than many Trans women - Trans women are women - All of this is perfectly normal

Martina Navratilova Believes WNBA May Be Hiding Secret Trans Player. Maybe Also Retire from Posting?

​There are, in fact, no trans women in the WNBA — and Republicans have already made it quite difficult for one to even qualify.
