Ok, so Madonna who's attained a level of success, wealth, critical acclaim and global adoration from the public and her peers that Roisin Terfy could only dream of has jumped on the 'TQ bandwagon'? 🙄 This same Madonna who in the 1970s was dancing with us in underground queer NY nightclubs... 1/
If you’d like to read the report exposing the anti trans people ‘Gender Critical’ movement in the UK - which sadly Amnesty took down after bottling it due to legal threats from the Edinburgh Funder - here it is. Like_a_snowball_final_.pdf - Google Drive drive.google.com/file/d/1PSsa...
Let's talk about JK Rowling's 'bearded men'... I want to vent something that's been on my mind: The way transphobic groups and individuals are also actively homophobic. I've experienced it first hand, and know many others have too. 1/
Yesterday, it was Tracy-Ann Oberman and James Dreyfus; tonight it's Ricky Gervais. I wonder which poisonous bigot we can expect to see on The One Show tomorrow?
We are living through a new age of segregation. One day we will tear down the barriers that have been put up and get justice from those who put them there.
First time I heard this vial meme quote today (and there’s no consensus on its original author) but it perfectly sums up a lot of concern with AI: “The underlying purpose of AI is to allow wealth to access skill while removing from the skilled the ability to access wealth.”

Israel is governed by a criminal cabal of murderers. The thugs (I refuse to call them 'settlers') stealing land from and assaulting, sometimes killing, Palestinians are given a free pass and sometimes even encouraged by the Israeli state.

Read the Facebook comments written by Sandie Peggie, the transphobic & racist nurse currently being championed by TERFs. Then ask yourself: if you were a person with Pakistani heritage and you were in hospital, would you feel happy & confident being looked after by this woman?
Nothing is more indicative of institutional corruption than this. What we know about the Free Speech Union is its direct connection to American authoritarianism. This is why I turn up at their meetings with a microphone. The GCs groups are not independent; they are a subsidiary.
You only have to look at the veneration of the recently deceased Rod Liddle by prominent women in the "gender critical" movement (Kathleen Stock, Rosie Duffield etc.) to know that their claim to be "protecting women" is utter nonsense.
Domestic violence is something that you carry with you your whole life and shapes and destroys many women (and men's) lives. Why can't we talk about this? The culture of silence and rank closing is actually sickening
If someone has committed domestic abuse in their life, that should be mentioned most especially by our national broadcaster. To not do so, while releasing endless fawning obituaries, is to be complicit in societal misogyny and the erasure of victims.
Rod Liddle spent years spouting divisive and hateful rhetoric - turning other people’s lives into clickbait, culture wars and newspaper copy for money. Now the privileged media class are passing judgment from the safety of their TV studios and opinion pages on the very people who he targeted
Your reminder Rod Liddle not only said he couldn't have become a teacher because he "could not remotely conceive of not trying to shag the kids" in The Spectator, but he also wrote laws banning child pornography are "absurd" in The Guardian. Abhorrent.
An excellent piece demonstrating why 'every one of those people is a problem for a sane society' demonstrates that Helen Joyce is a classic totalitarian. blog.beagmcd.net/why-helens-w...

The GCs are uniting in their grief over Rod Liddle's death, a man who assaulted his young pregnant girlfriend and said he couldn't be a teacher because he'd rape the kids. He was also a vicious racist, long before it was so profitable. He hated trans people, so, to these 'feminists' he's a hero.
So let me get this straight - in the eyes of gender critical activists, a trans woman using a toilet/changing room, like we do in every liberal democracy in the industrialised world are irredeemable predators, but an (alleged) domestic abuser who is also homophobic and misogynistic is somehow ok?
Libby@captainlibatron.bsky.social · 2d agoDear god
Rod Liddle’s dead: • He can’t sue you for libel, defamation or the rest. • His admission of guilt to assulting his domestic partner to obtain a police caution makes the claim he was a domestic abuser reasonable regardless. • He can’t perve at 14 year olds either.

If you don't know who this person is that these feminists are mourning the loss of, it's not for me to speak ill of the dead as he can do that well enough for himself so do a quick Google for 'Rod Liddle', even his Wiki page gives a little taster of who this man was...
Rod Liddle, who once wrote in The Spectator that he couldn’t work as a teacher because he wouldn’t be able to stop himself from shagging the kids, has died aged 66. I won’t be shedding any tears, personally.
One less racist One less domestic abuser One less homophobe One less man who wanted to sleep with 14 year children One less transphobe

That’s quite the precedent Robert Jenrick is setting. Martine law works both ways, but wouldn’t expect a Reform UK MP to have a clue about international politics or law (other than his extensive experience in Moscow). Reform UK don’t care about: Smuggling Piracy Fishing
A lot of people don’t know this but social media algorithms de-emphasize the people you follow to push new creators instead. On Instagram tap the Instagram logo, which gives a drop menu. Select “Following” to ensure you see the accounts you follow, not the ones Instagram wants you to see.
Recently, a GC lawyer named Akua told me on X to stay out of ladies' toilets. Fortunately, the places I frequent have other ideas.
