If attendance at a major women's conference was down 80% due to a boycott fighting against trans *inclusion*, it would be all over the Times, Telegraph, Mail etc. This last weekend, attendance at a major women's conference was down 80% due to a boycott fighting against trans *exclusion*. Crickets.

Don't worry, it's not just for racism. They also use it to justify banning trans people from the loo!
A short thread on “legitimate concerns”. The phrase is used repeatedly by UK government ministers. The Home Secretary is at it again this week. But only ever - as far as I can tell - in one context: people’s response to the arrival of asylum seekers. Please read whole 🧵before responding - thanks

the privately educated, like massive transphobe Sharron Davies, are significantly over represented in UK's Olympic Medallists. Approx 6.5% of the population vs 40% of Tokyo 2021 Medallists. When do we get to talk about the unfair advantage that helped her win? www.suttontrust.com/news-opinion...
What school did Sharron go to? Glad you asked! Mount Kelly independent school, fees up to £17,000 per term.

NEW | On a shocking interview… ANALYSING JUSTIN WEBB’S INTERVIEW WITH ED MILIBAND ABOUT SANCTIONS ON ISRAELI SETTLEMENTS On the absence of balance in an encounter where the Foreign Secretary’s Jewishness was called into question. brokenbottleboy.substack.com/p/analysing-...

It’s a standard defence for antisemites to equate Jewishness with Judaism. So when they have a go at secular Jews, they can claim they’re not antisemitic. Like Justin Webb is doing here.
What the absolute fuck is this line of questioning by Justin Webb? It’s worse than pure grandstanding; it’s querying Miliband’s faith.

Justin Webb is a disgrace. Mirvis only represents a particular proportion of British Jews. He does not represent me. Ed M's parents escaped the Holocaust, like my father did in 33. Jews who agree with Ed M agree because they have lived with the ghosts of our dead and we won't tolerate any Holocaust.

An almost perfect piece of subliminal propaganda from the BBC. Perfectly reasonable to the casual reader, it solidifies and normalises LGBTQ being on the back foot, normalises corporate withdrawal from Pride, links it to "Diversity" and blandly platforms Reform and "GC" as part of the community.

I appreciate that Dolly Parton refused to participate in "dress respectability" and, by her own account, modeled her aesthetic after a town "tramp," who she thought was beautiful. She separated aesthetics from character and understood "classiness" to be about how you treat people, not how you dress.

..because, obviously, my response to Cofnas' "empirical claims" about Jews (and other groups) is "f*** off with your gutter racism". Obviously, that does not meet your standards of "open, civil inquiry". In your view, that makes me an opponent of academic freedom. Fine.
