The failure of the puppet EHRC to operate intersectionality (here at the intersection of sex/gender and age) is why things like this have gone under the radar for so long… The harm caused by an inept, ineffective and puppet EHRC is not restricted to its more obvious campaign against trans people.

The silence about cuts to SEND from the puppet EHRC (whose ministerial controller, Bridget Phillipson is, conveniently, also education secretary) is deafening. This is why we need an independent EHRC.

i continue to ask what people are still doing on the fascist white supremacy platform that generates child pornography

my grandmother, an Auschwitz survivor, was Anne Frank’s neighbor in Amsterdam, and Oma thinks this comparison is perfectly apt

Imagine respecting someone who sees murder "otherwise." Imagine being that fucking craven. These people have lost their minds and morality in order to justify how they have ended up being "friends" with monsters.

Calling transphobia a 'gateway drug' to the far right undersells it. It's pure accelerant. Grimly fascinating to guess what crankery becomes any famous transphobe's secondary obsession, cos they all have one: 15 minute cities are fascism! Grok noncing is cool! ICE are good! We should kill all dogs!

The puppet @equalityhumanright.bsky.social’s so-called “constructive” change in its transphobic “guidance” appears has come after a private meeting with an anti-trans campaign group. Yet there is no evidence of the puppet EHRC meeting, or even listening to any trans groups.

Or indeed the "challenging governments" (except to release the draft code). But not on freedom of speech (PA), asylum, privacy (state surveillance), upholding religious rights (islam).....

At least in that I think people from Gorton probably won't like him on a personal level.

The iEHRC has made it into the media! Thanks to the amazing @sophiemolly.co.uk

This is a key consultation and there is only a week left. If you haven't read the excellent work by @kevinguyan.bsky.social on how abuse of data standards is used to exclude us from public life, it's at doi.org/10.1080/0958... Please respond if you're able and get others to do so if you can.

Big thanks to Reform for helping us keep out Reform in Gorton & Denton.

EHRC gaslighting again. They do NOT operate independently. They do NOT protect and promote the human rights of EVERYONE. They do NOT challenge governments. We deserve better. @i-ehrc.bsky.social is an alternative.

I have seen no evidence to support this “independent” claim. In particular it has NEVER had a a trans commissioner despite spending a disproportionate amount of time trying to remove trans people’s human rights and having multiple anti-trans members. This is why we need the iEHRC.

"The volunteers at her unit were devastated. One cried while explaining it to us, because she had seen our daughter flourish. She had seen that there was no conflict, no disruption — only joy."

What on Earth is the dEHRC up to…?

I’m trans but I don’t want the iEHRC to be just about the puppet EHRC’s transphobia, but I had to share this. The transphobes, enabled and facilitated by the government, are harming children as young as 6. A hard read. I’m currently still in tears.

I am still looking for people who want to help set up iEHRC. Apologies if I haven’t got back to everyone yet, I currently have a lot of pressure in my day job until around 6th Feb. I will try and get things moving after that.

This is an outstanding piece by @jenniekermode.bsky.social, and shows why we really need an independent EHRC. Everything awful we are seeing happening in the world is interconnected but the most significant is the way the far right & its client media wants to change & sabotage our perceptions.

If you believe in forms of constitutionality that exist to protect people from tyrannical imposition, you have to act like you believe in forms of constitutionality that exist to protect people from tyrannical imposition.

This is such a cool illustration of how the Mercator map distorts the size of Greenland, which looks as big as the whole continent of Africa on that map but is actually the size of Mexico.

These are the icy mountains of Pluto. It took 9 years to get these magnificent images… and 4.8 billion kilometers.

If the ICE officer who shot and killed Renée Nicole Good in Minneapolis last week is not prosecuted criminally, or even if he is, can he also be sued? To flesh that out, we caught up with Lauren Bonds of the @npapjustice.bsky.social.

“A key message being put out in relation to the outcome of this case is that it should be a lesson to organisations to ‘listen to women’. However, it is crucial to note that not all women feel trans people should be excluded from gendered spaces.“ - @nionwomen.bsky.social with 77,000 signatures 👏🏻

Rosindell defecting from the Conservatives to Reform UK means that they have a defector that’s been a minister in Tory governments from Major, Cameron, May, Johnson, Truss and Sunak. Reform UK and Nigel Farage cannot say they are a break from previous politics.

I’m glad I’m getting transphobes trolling this account which shows that I’m getting it right. So this is for the transphobes who are following this account. Transphobes don’t actually care about “protecting/supporting women” they’re just haters. Anything they say is just a pretexts for hatred.

I’ve started to get some trolling from fascist transphobes on here. This is good news. It means Im getting it right! Only one way to deal with transphobes; the old-fashioned way… *Block Early, Block Often.*

400 women…so far and not a sniff of justice for any of them.

Those of us in SEND Land have always known the EHRC was a load of old bollocks.

I’ve been telling you for ten years that these people are Nazis, or close enough that it doesn’t matter.

Hopefully all DMs should now work on n this account.

Impartiality clearly does not exist within the EHRC, as countless FOIs have revealed already. Their new chair started "judge me on what I do", we have! 1/4

If this sounds like “the lesser races are a cancer that is eating away at the Reich, here’s how men of will will eradicate this disease” then that’s because that’s what it is. Chuck in a bit of encirclement, decadent art, historical grievance and Bolshevik intellectual menace, and it’s 1934.

iEHRC is looking for people who can become iCommissioners. People who can represent all protected characteristics & especially those of groups who are currently most marginalized & excluded iCommissioners must fully support the human rights of all. Please DM if you can help.

This was the last straw. The smoking gun of Mary-Ann Stephenson. An open attempt to collaborate with what I regard as an anti-rights group. The EHRC is, in my view, not fit for purpose.

During the pandemic many people regarded SAGE as dangerously flawed and not independent enough from government interference. Today many regard the EHRC as dangerously flawed and not independent from government or anti-rights groups. That is why we need the iEHRC.

This is an account set up by @natacha.bsky.social to facilitate setting up a new group. I regard the existing EHRC as not independent and consequently not legitimate. So I am looking to recruit members of an independent EHRC who can fulfill its functions with genuine integrity and… 1/4
