I just scooted through the channels and briefly passed GB News and there was another anti trans piece - I hope anti trans activists are pleased at how much they help people like Trump and other bigots to power - well done the lot of you

I think it's pretty clear that their money appears to be coming from the same sources.
Who stands to gain from disrupting Western liberal democracies in this way, I wonder?
Cui bono, cui bono, cui bono, always cui bono.
Then again, phrases like 'anti-trans' & 'transphobic' for anyone who isn't fully signed-up to the trans argument, is as divisive as anything that Geebeebies might want to put out
It's language that is no better than 'Remoaners', and has a lot of resonances of the 'othering' tactics of the brexiters
Or do you doubt the existence of anti trans activists and just see it as “just asking questions” cos I can tell you that feminist friends who voice trans support have seen very specific targeting
Robin, I think the problem here is that not everyone is as precise in their language as you are, and that this debate is largely extremely toxic for many (most ?) people, precisely because they don’t want to be
labelled as transphobic, or similar, when they’re not , - but I of course accept there are people who absolutely are transphobic, either because it’s what they believe, or it’s what they’re paid to believe, - just as
And yet when I travel around the country - doing free shows to 9 and 90 year olds - the vast majority are not anti trans and don’t know why there is a fuss - this is a case of media and interested parties fuelling a bigotry than many do not hold
Can't shame these addled cunts. Some ancient priest aiming to appease a long forgotten deity wouldn't have stayed the knife because a child was under it. These fucks are just as dogmatic; kids should be happy to die for their ideology
One of the last things I saw on twitter was a transphobe asking why it mattered if they agreed with the far right on this one thing. I think it matters a lot if that one thing is demonising a minority while also promoting misogynists and providing a useful gateway.
Most of them are useful idiots, with emphasis on the “idiot” part. This is not speculation; I infiltrated a bunch of their online forums a decade ago for counter intel and they are generally too stupid to appreciate the point you just made. They lack the imagination to think that it applies to them
Ah, it makes me feel sick. I used to think the hatred all comes from fear, but I wonder whether it's something more creepingly horrible than that - a deep need to control. Maybe that has come from fear, actually. #stillnotanexcusetospewhate #transrights #protectlgbtqia+
It's a weird obsession. We are such a small percentage of the population and have zero negative impact on the population at large. A lot of the funding comes from the catholic church because they see us as going against god's design. Ironic given that they are ACTUAL men in dresses

Travis Perkins building supplies often have this on in their Brighton depot.
They turned it off for a while after I outed them on twitter..
It's now back on.
Guess where I no longer buy buildings? 🤷♀️
