Even more unpopular opinion: the acute antipathy to public conversation, as evidenced buy the insane overreaction to this anodyne post, and the society-wide lack of empathy that has fueled the spread of fascism are not unrelated

Time is of the essence and we need to fight the EHRC interim guidance before it becomes statutory and Parliament make it law. Don’t just shout about it, write to them. Also tell the media, if you can get them to care. I’ve posted this on Instagram. Speak to your unions and staff networks at work

The 21st century has been a relentlessly hateful stampede towards more cruel, more stupid, more dishonest, openly corrupt and hateful politics, with these swine relentlessly straining to make it worse. You have to tell these awful, horrible people to go fuck themselves. If not now, then when?

Yes. In a sane media environment, the bathroom ban would be the end of anyone treating 'gender critical feminists' as anything other than a hate group. It's a straightforwardly bigoted policy that imposes an insane 'solution' to a nonexistent problem.

The EHRC guidance isn't just aggressively anti-trans, it's also actively authoritarian and openly anti-LGBTQ+, attempting to break LGBTQ+ freedom of association. Any government that does not resist it will be complicit in the most significant shift to social conservatism we've seen in decades.

I'm not a public servant myself, but I'd like to think that if I were, my response to "we are in danger, your team are putting us in that danger, you need to help us" wouldn't be "what's the magic word?"

If you want to know how serious our decline in the UK, when North Carolina did what the Labour Government and EHRC have done, the then UK Government told LGBT+ people to beware travelling there. (Credit to @kazhawa.bsky.social.) www.voanews.com/amp/uk-issue...

They have officially banned trans women from playing Pool in the UK The organisation in charge of the decision cited the recent supreme court ruling, which didn't actually rule on this at all The true level of anti-trans insanity in the UK, fully supported by all major political parties

Now would be a really good time for cis allies to start wearing trans pride badges and make it even more impossible for the toilet police to determine who is and isn’t trans

We are entering the Nazi era of British politics. The fact that someone whose job it is to protect human rights considers 300,000 people not human at all should scare everyone. If you are not trans but not white , male and straight then you are next.

"I was appointed to the EHRC to persecute trannies and chew bubble gum, and I'm all out of gum. Also, can we add to the guidance that the trannies aren't allowed gum? They didn't have any at the shop and I think it's their fault."

a) It's trans people. b) You're an MP. You're supposed to represent your constituents, which includes trans people. It's not something extra that you can choose to do, though I will grant that most of your colleagues choose not to. c) That MP salary is your thanks.

I made a site today that lets you compare the net worth of billionaires and corporations to the GDP of entire countries. Check it out. I want to raise awareness of the scale. There are many people - and tons of companies - with more wealth than the annual economic output of individual EU nations

Because everything is gender, I've been workshopping an idea: traditionally, Dems were the Mom Party and Republicans the Dad Party. But now that the Dad Party is blowing our money on crypto, into weird podcasts, and generally unhinged, Dems need to become the Single Mom Party

Not kidding! I watched TERF rhetoric evolve over the years, like this: - Sex is genitals! > changeable - Sex is hormones/brain/etc! > changeable - Chromosomes! > they're quite complicated. So.. 32 sexes? - Gametes! > Can be absent/combined. Four sexes? - Uhhhh... "intended" gametes! > we are here!

seen a sentiment from a few people now expressing or implying a desire to transition but feeling unable due to the current political climate. while fear of the future is completely reasonable, waiting for a "good time to transition" will waste your life. it will never not feel scary at first

The problem she's gesturing at is how we so often end up being oppressed as women, with bigots treating us like women (and thus badly), and then allies going "sure you're a woman, guy, wear whatever you want!" It amounts to plausibly deniable collective gaslighting that puts trans women in danger
