the difference between someone who supports the destruction of trans rights because they hate trans people and someone who supports the destruction of trans rights for personal gain is... nothing. there is no difference. both of these people are transphobes.

he's not though. "where it counts" is right here and he is not on the right side.

why does the nhs have "ai projects".

i would actually respect him more if he just said "whatever, man, i'm getting my bag" than i do for insisting he totally disagrees with her transphobia while treating it as a ~difference of opinion~ and not murderous bigotry
comment in response to post
perfectly peaceful protest will inevitably be painted as violent anyway. it always is. without fail. "don't give them ammo" is simply not a compelling argument for restraint when they can freely manufacture ammo no matter what anyone else does.

as if they wouldn't invent justification from whole cloth regardless. get real.

the fascists aren't gonna stop abducting people if we ask them nicely, babe
comment in response to post
they worship civility with a genuinely religious zeal. liberals will see every last one of us dead before they acknowledge that violence can be justified

the hong kong protestors used the phrase "do not split" to mean that the radical protest and peaceful protest arms of the movement should refuse to criticize each other.

anyone who has the temperament to do this, i applaud, sincerely. i don't, and i'm frankly sick to death of being scolded for being angry at a world that's hostile to my existence and the people that by and large keep that world hostile, whether through ignorance or animus.

nothing is genuinely better than the inaccurate gobbledygook that an LLM will turn the letter into

it takes some truly exceptional political instincts to watch labour bleed support for being a bunch of craven, bigoted empty suits and think "you know what we ought to be doing? that"

yes, of course there is! i just don't think we should brush over the fact that harm is being caused simply because it's unintentional! accidental harm is still harm!
comment in response to post
because the generous interpretation i speak of is not one that acknowledges her good intentions. at no point have i argued against those! the generous interpretation is one that denies that, intentions aside, what she said was harmful. and i will not grant that. because it was.
comment in response to post
sure, if we can come to an agreement that "attacking" means "attacking" and not "pointing out that they did something harmful, no matter how politely" would be *lovely* if that was an agreement we could share with 99% of cis people

trans women being women is "contested" in the same way non-white people not being intrinsically inferior is "contested".

bsky.app/profile/gary... check out all those blocked responses to a guy who thinks "transphobia vs social justice" is a false dichotomy

bsky.app/profile/cory... this entire thread has *the* most *rancid* vibes, i'd almost rather he just use slurs
comment in response to post
that is not a defining characteristic of cis. it literally just means not transgender. if their gender matches the one assigned to them at birth then they're cisgender, intersex or not.
comment in response to post
i see fifteen thousand cis people cheering "hell yeah let the trannies play over there" and that does not bring me anything resembling hope or comfort, not even if every single one of them sincerely believes they're being compassionate.
