The Trump regime's HHS and Office of Population Affairs have released another anti-trans report claiming that trans people are violent, authoritarian, anti-democratic, and extremist. This is a massive escalation in state propaganda and nothing but a pretense for horrors to come.

New Research on Gender Ideology and Left-Wing Authoritarianism
Where the Clinic Meets the Movement: Does Gender Ideology Arm Left-Wing Authoritarian Psychology? is a report by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services examining the psychology behind strong support for radical gender ideology and left-wing authoritarianism.

Does anyone else just...get angry all over again about this? I've had a nice weekend, chilled out with friends, played games, then I remember Mary Ann Fucking Stephenson is where she is and that this was approved by the "equalities" Minister despite objections from two key human rights committees.

Completely untenable to have someone who talks about a minority group like this in charge of anything, let alone being the final say in matters of equality and human rights

All the adults working on the wizard bigot show made an active decision to endorse a vile campaign of hate. We do not in any way have to reward them for that, let alone sympathize with their plight. Which they CHOSE.

what you will hear actors, writers and directors etc bleat is -- when you translate it from self-pity word salad -- "I don't want you to make me feel bad about the active decision I made." nah. they knew better and did it anyway. no part of that is on us

I remember this. It was shocking to see such an overt expression of eugenics. She claimed it was just a philosophical question, not a suggestion. 🙄 Important to note how long the UK campaign to revoke trans human rights has been running, and how infiltration of institutions has been key to it. 😟

I knew Gia Milinovich was a ‘gender critical’ transphobe - or ‘TERF’ as they were previously called back in 2014 when she tweeted that trans people should be aborted to “save them from a difficult life.” I didn’t realise she had such an influence within the BBC! 👉🏻 trans-express.lgbt/post/7706325...

The purpose of the far-right Gender Critical Ideology is to get otherwise left-wing people comfortable with the idea that an innocent minority can and should be apartheided and/or eradicated without requiring any material evidence of it being necessary.

Fellow Manchester-ites! We have a partial solar eclipse coming up today, and if you start up playing Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon at 6.17pm then the final lyric of "When the sun is eclipsed by the mooooooo-oooooon" will sound just as the eclipse reaches its darkest at 7.00pm. You're welcome.

This post just popped up on my Facebook from a page with tens of thousands of followers. Behind the black box are the names of 10 children the OP is alleging to be trans. The post also include photos of all 10 children, and the name of the schools they attend. They’re now doxxing minors.

Here are some of the recent trans-identified BOYS competing in GIRLS' high school sports in California.
@CIFState doesn't keep any records on the number of boys who are competing on girls' teams. I only became aware of the 3 boys at [CENSORED] High School after I asked parent friends if their daughters were being impacted by this insane transgender ideology.

Below this post, not included in the screenshot, were photos of all 10 children.

BBC Radio 4 ad for a documentary series: "crime has been falling in the UK for 40 years, but the public believes it is rising, why is that?" Cut to #r4today headlines: We are being invaded by criminals! Vape shop criminal gangs on our high streets!! Murderers are being released from prison!!

I'm seeing a lot of people invoke the figure of the intersex person in current discourse on sex and gender, especially in relation to the UK government's anti-trans segregation regime. But the actual voices of actual people are getting lost. This buried report offers vital evidence to counter that.

A few weeks ago, after a 7 year delay, the UK government quietly dropped the results of their 2019 Call for Evidence on variations in sex characteristics The results are striking but will of course seem deeply familiar to anyone working in this field. www.gov.uk/government/c...

"Everyone deserves the freedom to be themselves." Except trans people, according to the party that you are part of. Thanks to Labour it is not safe for trans people to visit (or indeed live in) the UK and you want to pinkwash that away by holding a pride event as a distraction. What a joke.

WorldPride would bring visitors, celebration and opportunity to London. But that's not why I'm backing our bid. For me, it's about the message it sends: that everyone deserves the freedom to be themselves, and that our diversity remains one of London's greatest strengths.

“Frameworks permitting routine exclusion or discretionary verification of sex based on appearance or stereotypes would raise serious concerns under international human rights law…” UN experts remind the UK that it must avoid gender policing and ensure trans folk can live with safety and dignity. 🏳️‍⚧️
