To anyone who is LGBTQIA+ just trying to survive within an increasingly violent and hostile society that would gladly eradicate us, incidents like this have become our Roman Empire.

Thereās a lot of data out there that suggests some not-so-subtle vote manipulation from Elon in swing statesā¦ so with that, we come full-circle.

Some things you hear for the first time, then immediately wish you hadnāt.
It goes to show just how deliberate everything is with her. Everything revolves around hatred. Itās not enough to be a bigot, it has to be woven into every fibre of her being, & the identity(-ies) sheās created for herself

The French are much more direct and to the point than us Brits, and we love you for that (contrary to whatever Brexit nonsense youāve been told)

Nailed it!
Unsurprisingly, so am I. Reluctantly at the moment, leaning a lot more into my Irish side seeing as the countryās on fire

I donāt want to assume your nationality, but coming from a Brit, āI dislike using the word hate but heās definitely not my favouriteā is possibly one of the most perfect British put-downs Iāve heard

But let me guess - just like his self-driving technology heās been on about since 2015, missions to Mars are *checks notes* coming by end of next year? Probably.

I have exactly the same highlighted screenshots of this passage in my phone from when I first read it. It stirred something in me that Iāve never previously been able to put into words. It helped me put a name to trauma so aggressively gaslit that I didnāt even recognise it was there.

Just as Brexit stripped away freedom of movement from the (largely misinformed) electorate, to our great detriment, but is still touted as a victory for our āsovereigntyā.
āDamned if Iām gonna let immigrants steal my van, thatās my livelihood - so I set it on fire insteadā is the common logic

Spot on. Watch how long it takes before the rumblings start again about the UK withdrawing from the ECHRā¦ this is what I fear is the endgame, theyāre hoping trans panic will be the wedge issue that finally enables them to strip away human rights from āminoritiesā and the entire population by stealth

But if youāre not distressed by being English, are you even really English?

Same back to you, Iām also watching in horror at whatās happening over there. We all seem to be getting it from all sides these days. Solidarity from my fascist-curious hellscape to yours āš¼

If only Labour could identify as anything other than a massive f*cking disappointmentā¦ but that seems to be their brand right now, theyāre really throwing the kitchen sink at it
comment in response to

This mirrors whatās happening in the UK with attacks on trans rights. The Labour Party went so far as to outright cancel their Womenās Conference, just so they could exclude trans women from taking part. All in the name of āprotecting womenā. The targets change but the playbook stays the same

The whole thing screams engagement bait, but the fundamental lack of self-awareness the Telegraph and their readership has makes me think they really genuinely *are* this detached from reality

Thank you for seeing this too, because itās all Iāve been able to think while reading this

Good point, and to bring it back round full-circle I think the shift will happen when ppl realise that what theyāre tacitly enabling as āopinionā wouldnāt wash when used in relation to any other marginalised demographic. Racism canāt be defended as āopinionā, itās rightly called out for what it is

Sadly, yes. But I hold onto the hope that (cis) people are finally waking up. Iāve had several reach out to me since the SC decision, both to check in and also ask what they can do to help. It may seem overwhelming but weāre not alone in this.

Iām struggling to find any material difference between this, and the crowdfunding grifts for the white woman in the US who called a child the N-word.
Both serve only to financially reward bigotry, and push the limits of what violence is acceptable to mete out on their preferred targets.

Curious what song people hear in their heads while reading this - Iāve found at least two and I canāt decide which is better

Good Lordā¦ I mean, have they never seen a British bank holiday weekend before??

The difference boils down to precisely that - entitlement. Women/POC have had to come to terms very early on that white patriarchal society is aggressively committed to keeping them āin their placeā, while white men see their success over minorities as their God-given birthright. No effort required.

Alas, I know nothing of these luxuries of which you speak, yet they are blamed for the self-indulgent downfall of an entire generation while conveniently overlooking the 2008 crash that obliterated millennials like me.
But whenever I point that out, all I get in response is āBOOTSTRAPS, BITCHESā

Maybe (just maybe) the five holidays are the problem? Not the VAT on private school fees.
