What's happening in the US with trans people and LGBTQIA people in general is very scary. I may be in Ireland but I'm scared for what's to come here also. Seeing how cis people don't seem to care does not give me confidence that when it's Ireland's turn I'll continue to be safe here anymore either.

people who a) are connected to a college campus and know what actually happens there and who b) aren’t paid embarrassing sums of money to lie about it will all tell you this is a crock of shit BUT i frequently get outsiders acting like it’s really true. the propaganda is at least a little effective

This month, Helen Joyce said about her comments that trans people are "a huge problem in a sane world", "That’s going to be my epitaph, I’m very proud of myself."

If I were a Democrat, and I saw Trump do a purge of high-level generals who were women and people of color and wouldn't be "yes men," I wouldn't vote to advance JD Vance's college friend for Secretary of the Army. And yet....16 Democrats just did so

This was the last thing I worked on at NBC News and I’m so glad we were able to publish it. It’s about KOSA and tech legislation billed as protecting children that would actually give Trump’s admin unprecedented power to censor the internet. Kids are fighting back. www.nbcnews.com/video/kosa-i...

Dems understand that they need to appeal to low-information, low-partisanship Trump voters and think the way to do that is to go like "look I admire Elon Musk and his noble goals as much as anyone but the Administrative Procedures Act says" when the actual move is "no eggs at the grocery store"

We can't be that far off a bunch of articles about cis women who get declared men because they wanted to run in a race and "failed" the "sex screening", and because of that they lost their families, jobs and human rights. No one will care

A lesson for the government: mimicking Reform anti-migrant sentiment is unlikely to sway voters back to you. You play on their terms, you lose. Look to Spain instead. Pedro Sánchez has defended immigration as crucial for prosperity - and gained the fastest-growing eurozone economy in the process.

Two years in a row now that delegates - largely the party's youth movements and its trade union delegations - have defeated an anti-trans motion from the CLPs section. This year's effort was supported by the SEC and came in the wake of the leadership's capitulation to anti-trans ideology. Shameful.

This. Lots of people, including lots of feminists, have a deep psychological attachment to gender. Genders are natural and immutable "sex classes" that provide order to the social world, and transness is a freedom that threatens that order. Transphobia is a manifestation of the fear of freedom.

here’s my take as a linguist specializing in interpreting indirect language use: nazi symbols and gestures are a declaration of intent to commit violence and can therefore reasonably be responded to with the actions appropriate to one’s bodily safety being threatened.

Exactly why I've been writing, podcasting, and damn near screaming about using the right language. The mainstream media is failing us SO badly right now. Stop. Calling. This. Shit. DEI. This is (re)segregation. This is racial purging. Cleansing Black people from positions of power.

By contrast, working class immigrants and their working class families are clearly not worthy of this respect. Hence this gaslighting that the wide-ranging hostility they have faced for decades from many sectors of British society is no more than the "concerns" of primarily working class people.

You are witnessing the normalization of fascism right in your face. You are seeing the media’s “unbiasedness” sanitize fascism by giving these people the benefit of the doubt. These are not “Nazi-like”, these are Nazis. Beware the rhinoceros, before it’s too late.

Everything went wrong when the polite liberal started insisting that we must debate civilly with the fascist, rather than make him scared to voice his fascist opinions at all. Nobody has ever defeated fascism with spirited debate.
