New Mexico Congresswoman Melanie Stansbury reported that she reviewed the Epstein files and Donald Trump is named repeatedly and is tagged in a discussion of his rape of at least one 13 year old child. #OpDeathEaters

This deserves an independent inquiry, including into the MAGA troll farms used to threaten victims, their supporters and others (lawyers, politicians, investigators) who go near this case. #OpDeathEaters #3E

US Congress voted 285–98 to condemn "socialism." 88 Democrats joined Republicans, including Hakeem Jeffries. What they mean by socialism is your access to healthcare, housing, safety regulations, and anything that benefits you instead of the oligarchy. There has been no vote to condemn fascism. #3E

Wrote this for The National. The moon howling men in the comments should remind us that our rights are not safe until there’s full decriminalisation and a rights based framework in 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

also if you are a random british lad [or a lass [or even a variation thereupon]]] and you want to facilitate this: talk to people about it. friends and family members. polls consistently show a majority thinks brexit was turbo shite but it has slipped out of the sphere of public discourse

Streeting is admitting that the Pathways “trial” already has a predetermined outcome. Stuffing it with SEGM placeholders is evidence of this. The only way we are going to end state-mandated torture of trans kids is to get Labour out of government completely.

occasional reminder that “the ai did it i just ignorantly posted it” is not an excuse

Our politics are still defined by resentment & hatred of these people. We still believe that they can be perpetually denied all the safety & comforts that we have always taken for granted. We dehumanise ourselves & our society by treating their lives like they're worthless.

Today is the 4th anniversary of the worst ever tragedy in the Channel. At least 27 men, women & children drowned in the freezing water, & 4 more have never been found. Since then, neither we nor the French have done a thing to offer people in this situation with real solutions.

I'm tired of her. I think she's trying as best she can to fit in, in a trans-hostile environment, and do her job. That's fair enough up to a point, but it ceases to be fair enough when she's throwing the rest of the trans community under the bus. We deserve better.

From reading her statements she seems to think she's some kind of leader in the trans community, except she is just completely divorced from the realities of members of that community and refuses to listen to anyone outside of her own circle (ironic considering she wants a "big tent")

I'm sorry, but I don't understand the "they went too far" line. At all. Who specifically went where? Why was this "too far"? It's seemingly a throw away line to try and make anything else sound "reasonable", including wholesale second class citizenship.

1) good, they should be prosecuted, they are responsible for countless deaths 2) always very funny when these people realize the extent to which their billionaire patrons could not possibly give less of a shit about them

This time period was… not that long ago? I remember it differently?

Narrator: "Dr Cass did not, in fact, recommend a ban on prescribing puberty blockers to trans kids." Wes Streeting has now publicly admitted that the recently announced trial is a sham 👇🏻 This isn't how you do medical trials. No parent should put their child through this process, IMHO.

Came across a cooked centrist who called Zack Polanski standing up to Starmer "infighting". Two options here...if he thinks the Greens opposing Labour is infighting he's wrong coz they're two different parties. If he thinks it's the LEFT infighting, well, Labour hasn't been the left for years now.

The trail will involve 220 children. Meanwhile 3000 another children seeking health care for their gender dysphoria will be placed on an ‘observational’ study. The old ‘watch and wait’ is how Alice was treated. Although this time there might be someone actually watching, this is not health care.🧵

Both co leads and one investigator are linked to Segm too. It's clear this is a trial with a pre determined outcome. bsky.app/profile/nick...

Migrants moving to your local area is not a “legitimate reason” for racism. LGBT folk being more visible in schools is not a “legitimate reason” for homo/transphobia. Women not wanting to date you is not a “legitimate reason” for misogyny. There’s no “legitimate reason” for bigotry. Just saying.

@zackpolanski.bsky.social on taxing the rich: "This is about inequality. For decades now poor people have got poorer and rich people have got richer... the money [raised] is important but the real point is about tackling inequality.. we need to get those assets flowing around the economy"

That was a great interview for Zack, it makes me hopeful we won't end up with a Deform UK government. #VoteGreen 💚

Ukrainian sumo wrestler Aonishiki, whose real name is Danylo Yavhusishyn, on Sunday became the first from his nation to win a tournament of the traditional Japanese sport.

Jesus - @zackpolanski.bsky.social is absolutely fucking brilliant as he ANSWERS, coherently and credibly, questions and (unsuccessful) attempts from Kuennsberg to trip him up. Vote Green @greenparty.org.uk, people. Listen to him/them, this is an opportunity to start turning things around.

I really wish 'gender critical' activists would grasp that we're not too scared to agree with them. We think they're malicious idiots. if anything, we're scared to publicly *disagree* with them, because they harass, bully and dox women who don't buy into their cultist nonsense.

Only a cis person would write this. We've already been there for quite some time.

Stop calling it a ceasefire.

Punitive disability benefit assessments have created a culture of fear that's holding disabled people back. Read our report: https://z2k.org/pip-report/

It’s a new day.

Rolling out the Matt Christman quote from after Charlottesville (2017) again:

You ever just sit down and realize that the rise of 21st century fascism is capital's answer to climate change?

And rightly so!!! Your mother didn't sprinkle a little calcite over your bread? You haven't tasted the real thing!! *brandishes mining pick emphatically*

Anti-trans ideology really does distort the believers’ sense of clinical reality Stock’s glib claim that abortions are “just nodded through…for any reason” is exactly the kind of misinformation and fantasy that ends up harming people - women, girls,Trans men and boys, and Nonbinary folk especially

Speaking as an Irish person who has been watching UK media for fifty years now: this is not a new thing.

I feel like this joke deserved more traction. Probably TDOR was a bad day to make it...

LOL this article is top tier MENTAL It's Four (now Three) Women Scotland, saying that people should be banned from being listened to by parliament for criticising them, while LITERALLY BEING A HATE GROUP SET UP TO ROLL BACK MINORITY RIGHTS Literally Lewis Carroll stuff

I'm a masculine appearing cis woman in the US. I get grabbed and held by a man at least once a month trying to use a women's toilet. This is quite unpleasant.

Fixed it for you. Idiots! If the exclusion is based on appearance then it will certainly impact cis folks as well as trans folks.

Its quite striking to me the similarity with the no more jury judgements thing Labour wants to do how they say “criminals shouldn’t get juries“ when the reality is that its “people wouldn’t get juries“

Our bill to decriminalize sex work in Massachusetts is being heard at the State House next Tuesday, 11/25 at 10am! We need people to join us to testify in support - you can testify in person or virtually - and to send written testimony. DM us if you want to help!

Airsoft attacks and drive-by "eggings" is less lethal than bullets, but the intent is still lethal. This is confidence building for greater acts of violence, not some random un-targeted prank. We should be allowed to exist in public without being hunted and mock executed.

LGB Alliance comforting their members who are going to have issues. The speculation is not silly, it's legitimate for some who won't meet the standards of the person making decisions. God forbid a woman has a deep voice.

Also not totally comfortable with the all women will be impacted narrative, as it’s a bit too “first they came for..”. This is categorically wrong for trans people and that should be enough. If you are a cis woman who refutes it, perhaps sign this: notinourname.org.uk/petition/not...

A friend of mine got some transphobic abuse recently because she's bald (alopecia). People haven't figured out women can have no or short hair, or men can have long hair, and it concerns me that they can vote (or worse, are currently running the country).

Reminder transphobia affects more than just trans people

See this for example. Scared to use public toilets because of their appearance. bsky.app/profile/squi...

You're not asking trans people. You're asking all people. This affects us all. Anyone could be barred from services based on appearance. Since, surprisingly we all have a fecking appearance www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Michael Crick on The Newsagents said there's no evidence that Nigel Farage is antisemitic today because "he's extremely supportive of Israel". Elon Musk is also extremely supportive of Israel.

Gender Critical have reversed women's rights back decades. A woman who dresses "too masculine" may face being barred from single-sex female spaces. We warned you.
