Please please please can we let the argument die that trans people have lost our rights because a few trans people were overzealous on Twitter?
Like I get Labour members want to defend their party, but it’s genuinely just incredibly insulting as well as incorrect.

This passage actually made me feel quite ill. Really grim stuff.
Unsurprising given other similar arguments they've made recently but still shocking to see figures within government argue that scrapping the two-child benefit cap would be bad because it would increase racism. A new thing to blame ethnic minorities for in this country!

This is something that really bothers me in so much talk about benefits including from some policy wonks.
Not everyone who is given something from the state is Oliver Twist, nor should they be.
The state should provide help to all sorts of people in different circs, not just gruel for the needy

Sorry, no, Motability was not about 'helping the most vulnerable' - it was about providing people who need modified vehicles modified vehicles!

Up there with the “we can always tell” nonsense the idea LGB cis people at large have “concerns” about trans people is one of the biggest GC lies.
Anyone who has any regular contact with the LGBT community at least those under 50 would know this - it’s a completely false “conflict”

Ok but some of us have read the judgement placed in a wider political and legal context and are still deeply concerned.
So what now? I fail to see what the purpose of this kind of paternalistic condescension is. Do people think this reassures anyone?

I understand how upsetting this case is for many people, but it is worth at least reading the judge's reasoning, rather than attacking a decision instinctively.
(tl;dr Although Linehan may have behaved reprehensively, not all bad conduct amounts to harassment. But he did commit criminal damage.)

I'm going to repeat my request that any of my current or former colleagues in the UK think about being more outspoken about this.
I don’t like subtweeting people I consider online friends, but there is a subset of people who are very worried about the ongoing radicalisation of our political elite but won’t ever acknowledge the echoes with the radicalisation of their colleagues on trans rights
And few who are sympathetic to us, some who are friendly with me on here, will ever stick their head above the parapet

Among the many horrors of institutional transphobia in the UK, it is pretty depressing that as a trans person I genuinely am losing any faith that someone like me would be treated fairly by our judicial system.
I realise we’re far from the only community this affects, it’s still bleak.

Reeves said she was determined to stay in her post and thanked MPs for supportive comments.
“I’ll show the media, I’ll show the Tories, I will not let them beat me, I’ll be there on Wednesday I’ll be there next year and I’ll back the year after that,” she said

Yep see also “emotional labour”. That’s just living in community babes!
Archetypal example is “capitalism ground me down so I quit my job and set up a small business so that I’m my own boss”. You didn’t dislike capitalism! You disliked authority!
