If you tried to do an honest documentary about Rowling you’d be sued into oblivion and she’d make you publicly apologize on X for crossing her

You should understand this stuff not as analysis of public opinion - since when did the lads give a fuck about that? - and not even as threats. These are promises: we, the press, are now going to fuck you up, and we won’t stop screaming until your lives are utterly miserable.

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

I’m baffled when people try to suggest that the BBC News is left wing or ‘woke’. Can you imagine someone presenting their flagship radio news programme who so brazenly exhibits and pushes left-wing views and talking points as much as Justin Webb does with those from the right?

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.

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.

Ben Dunnell@bendunnell.bsky.social

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.

Art prints are finally back! 40 added and more still to come. Plus - new look shop, more in keeping with the Jim'll Paint It ethos. The modern internet sucks so I've tried to make it as close to the old internet as possible while still making it function smoothly. jimll.co.uk

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.

the UK press attacked jason arday because it is deeply racist & so the idea of a black intellectual is abhorrent to them. they enjoy that they have killed him, they will be celebrating in private even as they offer tepid excuses in public. they're all nazi freaks and should be treated as such

Don't click through the link here, but this the kind of clickbait journalism that is killing our community and selling the forces of our death back to us for money.

Xitter is a like an old phone box. Reminded that it exists, I put my head in to see if it's still has a working connection to anything, and it stinks of piss.
