On Wednesday known transphobe spoke at a Green Party Women Webinar. Here they reveled in the relentless harassment of Jason Arday (RIP). This is who transphobes are. Bullies. Hate filled bullies.

The Jason Arday storv has been delicious. But the problem goes well bevond race and academia. Would Andrea Long Chu. a vicious. porn- addled misogynist. really have won the 2023 Pulitzer Prize for Criticism if he hadn't claimed to be a woman?
Woman-hate is widely regarded as a sign of edgy brilliance, and its totally acceptable so long as the man spouting it has changed his pronouns.

I should also add that brands advertising on The Telegraph should pull their adspend. The ‘dirty attention’ economy is largely funded by advertising revenue. While regulation struggles to catch up, ethical brands can and should set a better standard.

JK Rowling has said, more than once, publicly that people consuming Harry Potter means they support her. And her transphobia. She uses her vast wealth to do very real world harms to trans people, and in particular...trans women. There is no ethical consumption. None. It's that easy.

I know it’s an old and hackneyed point but I always go back to it. Suffragettes fought *against* the notion of sex based rights; sex based rights were the ones men had and women didn’t. It was seen as appalling to deny people rights based on their biology.

Reality check: "Women's hard won rights": - did NOT include defining women by biology, the slogan was "biology is not destiny!" - did NOT seek sex segregation, they fought for inclusion of women - did NOT advocate "sex-based rights", they fought AGAINST that and FOR equality regardless of sex

These wankers kill us at our prides. Kill us with legislation, kill us in our bedrooms - they think we will crumble. They’re wrong. All I now know is that I WILL be at Berlin pride in the future and will outlive their hatred

Well, with the media suppression of the massive trans pride march in London yesterday, looks like the only pride celebrations and protests queer kids will be hearing about as they form their identities will be ones where people get murdered. It Gets Better, aye www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c3...

Police name suspect after car driven into Berlin Pride event, with one dead and 16 injured

Police are searching for a man named Abdul B. and say several people were reportedly stabbed in the incident.

There will be a lot of right wingers trying to make currency from the identity of the man arrested in Berlin as a means of attacking Muslims. The same people who attack queer people day in day out and who behind closed doors will be celebrating the deaths.

Fella I have known since long before transition has blocked and unfriended me across platforms because I questioned his undying support for Starmer and the assertion that the green win was ‘posturing’. What a fannybaws
