Kind of appalling - what's been happening behind the scenes in Parliament with rival amendments to decriminalise abortion. 🧵

submitted 1 day ago • 7 comments

I have emailed my MP and asked them to support this amendment. The link below makes it incredibly easy to do the same, and if you are a UK resident I very strongly encourage you to do so. Abortion is critical healthcare and we must decriminalise it NOW.

Remember when Sinn Fein threw trans kids under the bus and we didn't know why and we thought it might be to get Casement Park funding through and then Casement Park didn't get funding? Today Sinn Fein have announced the British Government will join funding the redevelopment of Casement Park.

No, actually, I don't think the government should have a role in creating an officially authorized and sanctioned sex for every individual. Kinda seems like none of their business tbh.

btw lol one of the things that people can get people deported for on the ICE tipline is “Intellectual Property Violations”, just in case you were wondering if the cartoon people expanding the cold grip of the state were morally above reproach

Whatever your thoughts on AI, if you find yourself cheering on giant media corporations’ efforts to strengthen State-backed intellectual “property” privileges, you might not be as radical as you think you are.

Yeah if I thought there was even a 5% chance of being renditioned to Gitmo or El Salvador for the crime of leaving my passport at the hotel, I would simply not travel. This is going to kill tourism.

feminism is when women have to ask the government if they're allowed to start a women's walking group and the less the government tells them they're allowed to start a women's walking group the more feminism it is

It would be funny watching them squirm on the hook of refusing to admit on the record that the clarity they think they've obtained is "trannies aren't allowed any more" if they weren't in positions of power over, like, all of us

For anyone who doesn't know "Article 8" is the European Convention on Human Rights right to a private life This is the head of the EHRC saying that she does not believe that anyone has the right to privacy when it comes to being trans or cis Brazenly immoral, legally untrue

It's important to note the sheer velocity - just 6 weeks ago, J.K. Rowling was warning everyone: "Don't be gaslit into thinking this is about toilets." Today she posts a trans woman's tiktok videos about Disney and says it's so that "men will know exactly who to be on the watch for in Disneyland"

For those who aren't particularly familiar with Helen Lewis she is basically responsible for this being terf island. Hardly any papers were doing bigot shit until she championed it through her role as deputy editor as New Statesman. A lot of bigots got their start on this beat there with her.

that's correct -- everyone is trying to avoid collapsing the wave function. Democracy in the US is like an airplane that has inoperative landing gear and an engine out. if you just keep status quo of it being in the air, everyone's alive. the instant you try to land it, things go unpredictable.

If Helen Lewis still regards Cass as legitimate science rather than a politicised stitch up, her attempt to detach herself from the genocidal escalation of transphobia in the US and UK is worthless. She made 'concerns' into a discourse out of spite and pique and she cannot escape responsibility.
