A fucking solid week of utter bollocks because a wealthy person got bored, decided that they wanted to be president and were entitled to be on the ballot paper regardless of the rules, and now it's a giant conspiracy by the elite cabal that they are already a part of. Give me fucking strength

Just to recap, the actual president found an AI-generated video of a fake news report depicting a fake announcement about an imaginary healthcare system based on a technology that doesn’t exist and posted it on his official social media account

Genspect has released a statement saying they are going to push for the Re-Psychopathologization of Gender Incongruence. This will happen to whole LGBTQIA+ community if we don’t fight. ✊🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

The only way to see the US as a historically white country is if you pretend Indigenous Americans don't exist and you ignore the fact that African Americans have been in this country longer than most of its white people. The way US history is taught from k-12 affirms the lie of white supremacy.

North Korea walked out on Netanyahu’s speech but France, UK, Canada, Germany? Nope.

I regret having to repeat this, but the only lawful and cost effective solution is to provide single-occupancy facilities for users who require enhanced privacy. This was the best practice in the past, and it remains the best practice now. The position has not changed due to Scottish Ministers

There is this delusion that Maria Steen is this widely embraced public figure, when in reality she is a fringe candidate whose polling was no stronger than McGregor's, and whose views on social issues are massively at odds with most of Irish society. m.independent.ie/irish-news/p...

Keir Starmer comments about Reform are no more sincere than Wes Streeting saying trans people should be treated with 'respect and dignity'. They are words meant for Labour supporters who don't really care about either 'issue' but want some nice things to point to. Their actions tell you everything

Always a little baffled when news of some horrific anti-trans policy include lines like 'critics say this will make life harder for trans people' Like, yes, that's the point? That's what they're trying to do. That's the desired outcome. "Critics say tax breaks will make the rich richer." Oh aye?

The Right is nakedly trying to make it illegal to call them fascists which is about the most obviously fascist thing you could come up with.

Listen to someone who has been through it under Putin.

This is Genspect trying to pathologize trans people as inherently violent and prone to terrorism and mass murder by virtue of their identity. This is an absolutely heinous proposal.

The proposed pathology is based on a forensic psychiatric team that reviewed the Norwegian white supremacist mass killer, Anders Breivik. This is literally a pathology proposed to diagnose terrorists and mass killers that they want to label trans people with.

Anti-trans hate group Genspect is formally calling for trans people to be repathologized. This is most certainly to set the stage for mandated conversion therapy and potentially forced institutionalization. archive.ph/yA2Wh

We've never been deparhologised in Ireland.

And succeed he did. This vote makes it virtually impossible for LGBT people in Slovakia to be treated as equals under the law and lead a decent life, while exposing a fractured opposition. That division bodes ill for any united front against Fico in the next election, two years from now. 4/4

In Slovakia, LGBT people still lack even the most basic rights: no registered partnership, let alone marriage. This constitutional amendment will entrench discrimination and treat LGBT people as second-class citizens under the law. It pushes Slovakia one step closer to Orbán’s Hungary. 2/4

Why does it matter so much? Because the Irish language version of the Constitution - which the President is charged with upholding - is the primary version. Her main role would be to ascertain if legislation is Constitutional - but she is unable to read the version that takes precedence. #Áras25

I want a government that asks 'how can we make things better for people?' not 'how can we make things harder for those people you don't like?'

They aren't bringing ID cards in to make people's lives easier, they are specifically bringing them in to make certain people's lives harder.
