At the root of so much of this is a right wing US Christian evangelical movement that created the trans bathroom panic as a pipeline for their anti LGBT ideology. Trans people first, then gay people, then cis women, with people of colour particularly targeted at every point - that's how this goes.

Confused by the inclusion of Wes Streeting in this year's @the-independent.com Pride List. The introduction bemoans the increasing attacks on trans people worldwide and in the UK, yet, the list includes him, who has not only spoken against trans rights but has implemented antagonistic policies

The Independent’s Pride List is back again, celebrating the LGBT+ community’s biggest pioneers over the past 12 months. LGBT+ rights have been at the forefront of the political agenda over the past year, but rarely for positive reasons. Below are just some of the inspiring changemakers featured.

Let's talk about how Trump Republicans are made and why Mayor Pete's instincts are flat wrong. People don't go to one awkward DEI training and boom, they come out MAGA. Something else is going on and that something is a huge right wing persuasion and media system telling this story, loudly and... 🧵

The underlying problem: “Digital natives” are increasingly being raised in an online system which just lies to them, constantly, for money. And they can’t even feel it. It’s the water.

Five years since the Colston statue was pullef down in Bristol #photography #photographersofbluesky #photographersunited #photohour #artyear #picoftheday

Five years today, the statue of Edward Colston was pulled down in Bristol. Boris Johnson accused protestors of trying to "photoshop" the past and "lie about our history". I'm reposting below a thread I wrote at the time: on history, memory, and how we decide who to celebrate in our public spaces.🧵

I don't want to sound like that guy, but the late 90s increasingly seem like the apogee of human civilisation. It was a period of hope (birth of the internet, climate change still unnoticable, end of Cold War, etc) that has been utterly quashed since then. It's been downhill since #r4today

It good to see #r4today has changed its unquestioning tune towards Natanyahu's actions in Gaza. But this shows how much its editors follow the news agenda rather than shape it (as a supposed flagship programme should do). It's only happing as the international political consensus itself is shifting

Instead of obsessing with Musk, this could be a good story to look at, #r4today

A) it was a ridiculous story to begin with. Why would the Telegraph even consider publishing it? B) as a NEWSpaper, run by JOURNALISTS, shouldn't they have checked it was a real story? They only have themselves to blame, really

"Musk is a very focused guy, focused on various things" That doesn't sound very focused to me, tbh #r4today

In amongst all the excitement I fear many have missed this outstanding bit of trolling by Friedrich Merz. The Chancellor gifted Trump a gilded framed copy of his grandfather’s German birth certificate... reminding Americans that Trump is both the child and grandchild of migrants.
