Who would have thought that someone who made his name through comedy centred around offensive portrayals of minorities would turn out to be a bit of a dick!
I am surprised it's taken this long tbh, this has been common knowledge in the publishing business for a long time.

It's wild to watch a live performance of the Martin Niemöller poem unfold.
"First they came for the trans people, and I did not speak out because I was not a trans person".
If you're American and not speaking out, you need to read the final verse again.

You know full well that if a presenter of a BBC program claimed that they'd been forced out for their anti-trans opinions then Keir Starmer and several other ministers would have takes printed on front pages about it the next day.

Very sad that I felt I had no choice but to resign from The Infinite Monkey Cage - a victory for the transphobes and other bigots - I did it because so much of the media has chosen to believe the kind and empathetic people are a fiction - they are real and so often unrepresented.

Days ago, all the Scottish papers hailed a massive victory for Peggie when it was partial. Today they're pretending she lost and must appeal. When the Supreme Court decision was questioned, it was a threat to the judiciary. Now it's apparently a moral obligation. Same voices, same loud megaphones.

I'm looking at the frankly crazy list of things the Americans want from overseas visitors, and the only conclusion I can come to is that it exists to intentionally stop visits to the US. The question is why, is it to isolate Americans from outsiders? If so, barriers to leaving America would be next.

It's fascinating and disgraceful at the same time, how there's a near blackout in the British media over the hungerstrike of a group of Palestine Action remand prisoners.
It's over a month in now and they are being hospitalised, but crickets on the TV or the papers.

An important point to come out of the Sandie Peggie case is that 'gender critical' employees can't take matters into their own hands and confront trans employees. If they do that it is likely to be harassment/ bullying/ a hate incident.
