hard to think of a better example of "you may not believe in class war, but billionaires know they're in one" than this

Vixen's origin story

Are other parents as revolted by this language in The Times as I am?

It's really haunting to me that one of the key things that the Cass Review, the Appleby Report, the Sullivan Report etc have been designed specifically to do is to hide the harm that has been arranged to happen to trans people.

The dude whose company, thanks to Labour, will run our military analytics and to whom Wes Streeting is giving our personal healthcare data.

One of the most sickening realizations I've ever had came when it hit me that six hundred years from now historians will be writing things like "while technically illegal, intercourse with minors was broadly accepted as normal among the American ruling class, and even a marker of status"

I'm afraid that neither the Women's Institute nor Girl Guiding's leadership are being entirely straightforward with their membership. They have a *no downside* option to remain trans inclusive and I know this for a *fact*. More to follow from us on this.

If the idea was to arbitrate between these two supposedly respectable sides, it’s straightforwardly corrupt to choose someone actively participating on one side, personally caught up in the dispute. And that *should* be mentioned in serious analyses.

I say intentionally or unintentionally and I get people commenting on posts all the time saying "these weren't suicides, they murdered those kids" But the political authorities of our day genuinely believe they are doing good by withdrawing care and instead insulate themselves from trans suffering

To understand how much Alex Massie actually cares about women's safety: when I called out his transphobe-in-arms Nick Cohen for multiple acts of sexual misconduct against cis women, which eventually got him sacked, Massie went berserk at me. Transphobia is a men's rights movement in drag.

Hot take, but no one should be using ChatGPT and any AI products in general.

If we wanna talk about how interactions with AI bots reflect upon us as people maybe we should talk about what it means about you if you enjoy conversation where the other party gives you sycophantic praise every single reply

Let’s not forget that Hilary Cass labelled people raising the alarm about this as “shroud wavers”

likes charge reblogs cast

I'm sorry the guy changing the rules on the fly is named what

sources close to Keir Starmer tell me when you’re being mean to Keir Starmer this is who you’re being mean to

the Spectator accidentally recycled a subhed from a previous day’s article about Tehran

Kenneth Zucker also has allegations. J. Michael Bailey had at least one infamous instance of a relationship which, while not illegal, involved a very young woman over whom he had authority. James Cantor was heavily involved with Prostasia and believes paedophilia is a sexual orientation

Finneas is better at political messaging than 99% of the Democratic consultants in DC.

If you think Streeting is in trouble for getting trans kids killed, think again. They won't say it in so many words, but trans death is a desirable outcome for the people who want to "reduce" the "numbers" of trans people. And those people have had considerable success with ideological capture.

Moreover he was hired by Wes Streeting to do so. They must have both known this information would come out eventually.

Professor Louis Appleby covered up a policy which killed trans children so that the British government could kill some more through neglect and lack of care.

when i started working as a journalist in 2014, there were trans reporters in multiple national newsrooms. almost all have left. the high output of anti-trans articles & the near absence of articles by trans journalists are two sides of the same coin: institutional transphobia in the UK media.

Yknow what i respect the hustle of the editors to definitely have had an an emergency meeting and went yeah just publish it we gonna have so many people sharing pics and reading us lmao

As Interim Chair of Ban Conversion Practices Coalition I’m concerned a parenting book promoting “desistance” appears in 58 UK libraries. This is not evidence-based care; it draws from harmful conversion practices. Young people deserve dignity and support, not shame. We need a fully inclusive ban now

This is an especially good article about why the Epstein files matter so much.

ser miku

Lol this is like bringing up Candace owens and Clarence Thomas to try to say all black people are republicans. Its genuinely very silly.

This is an excellent question for @thetimes.com. What would be the threshold racism had to cross for you to recognize it as racism, and not as “racism”?

one of the greatest human triumphs of my lifetime is the relentless, unceasing, heroic effort by DECADES' worth of doctors and scientists to find a cure for a disease much of the world didn't take seriously for years because it predominantly affected a community they thought kinda deserved it

Every “gender-critical” transphobe, and every creepy transphobic journalist “just asking questions” is responsible for this. Transphobia IS fascism.

This IPSO?

Imagine a trans person, who has done nothing at all but finds themselves in the papers because they encountered a terf, sending this out and Ipso helping remind papers of their code of conduct...

They've disabled quotes but Beethoven, Toulouse-Lautrec, Van Gogh, Frida Kahlo, Goya, Matisse, Cyprián Majerník, Dorothy Stanton Wise

I really hope people advocating to ban kids from SM read this. Some kids are isolated by disabilities or circumstances. Furthermore, some kids grow up in abusive households. “Ideally, a child’s exposure to online worlds should be moderated by their parents” isn’t a reassuring sentiment for everyone

"What you did was racist." "Well ... you're fat." Kind of proves the level of people we're dealing with.

The general secretary of education union, NASUWT, has made clear statements AGAINST changes to the RSHE guidance, which exclude and alienate trans pupils. Teachers don’t want the discriminatory trans-hostile policies being pushed by ‘gender critical’ transphobes.

The Venn Diagram between racists and transphobes is a circle. The actions of the far right against migrants and how likes of many "gender critical activists" act towards trans and non-binary individuals are one and the same. It was inevitable it would escalate. www.thepinknews.com/2026/02/06/t...

I don't forget Lucy Meadows! And neither should any of us - even 13 years later! "Coroner investigating death of transgender teacher who killed herself after being outed chastises press for 'ill-informed bigotry'" www.theguardian.com/uk/2013/may/...

These bans are short-sighted and inhumane and pushed by people who do not understand the complexity of social media

Isn't it super random that all of the "anti-woke" cancel culture academics who all leaned into transphobia and race science later in their careers all seem to be connected through Jeffrey Epstein?

The right wing’s attempt to wield the Current Thing and NPC Update Chip memes was — and I understand this is a crowded field, so I do not say this lightly — the single most galling example of projection I have ever seen from them knowyourmeme.com/memes/npc-up...

Gonna be honest, it did feel a bit like I had been going crazy, especially since even before any of these revelations, a lot of career transphobes were quite openly pedophilic, Germaine Greer self-described as a pederast "like all women of taste", and yet nobody seemed to see the red flags.

You’re not crazy. The anti-trans movement is not organic; it was funded by pedophilic billionaires like Jeffrey Epstein who backed a network of conservatives to accuse the same people they were sexually abusing of being the real danger. @madycast.com exposes the truth in our in-depth report.

One thing I’ve learned that is that arguments in favor of something that does measurable harm to your community — using genAI, skipping vaccines, not wearing masks — are generally not reasoned or based in science or even deeply held beliefs. The actor simply does not want to *have to do something.*

Documents show RFK Jr lied to Congress about his agenda in Samoa—he did indeed go to spread anti-scientific doubts about vaccines. He was ultimately successful in getting an outbreak going there that killed 83 people, mostly babies and young children.

We've had 6 incompetent PMs in a row. It's surely statistically improbable that this is pure bad luck and has nothing to do with our political culture/system or capitalism. But that's what we're being invited to believe.

Will be interesting to see the posture that people take around this today. For my part, I'm glad to see that the white supremacists continue to make it clear how anti-Black and racist they are. It goes to the very top. This is what their weaponization of "woke" was always about.

I want a personal apology from every reactionary centrist who claimed Trump supporters were just motivated by “economic anxiety”
