Genocide is a red line - how far over it they are is irrelevant. 🤷

It’s the Government’s duty to protect all communities - including trans people.

They’re failing to do that.

Trans people deserve safety and dignity.

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

Still thinking about this quote.
"Our standing rule is: If one of us brings up using GenAI in any of our work, then it's safe to assume we've been assimilated by The Thing and should be burned alive by Kurt Russell," said a game design consultant in the US.
Over 50% of game developers now think generative AI is bad for the industry, a dramatic increase from just 2 years ago: 'I'd rather quit the industry than use generative AI'
The latest GDC survey also found that managers are more likely to use generative AI than their employees.

man, seeing some 4channer create the term "trans identified male" on /r/gendercritical years ago because "MtT/Male To Trans implies a change, and there isn't - they're still just men"

then seeing it nowadays used across the media in the UK AND by the national broadcaster is absolutely wild

Wild to see wealthy Reform politician "explaining" to poor people they don't understand their own experience.

Let's make sure every single person in Gorton & Denton (and the country!) knows exactly that Reform is bankrolled by dodgy donors. Mask is off.

that's no different from labour's position.

the only difference is labour use trans women as a proxy to make the exact same misogynist argument.

Employment law in the UK is a joke., Employees get treated like disposable waste by most companies. This needs to change. It has nothing to do with immigrants and everything to with large companies screwing good people over for obscene profit.

people's evidence for "third gender" cultures is always just like "we badgered and humiliated this trans woman about her penis until she admitted to being 'biologically male'." therefore, they must be aware they're not REAL women. unlike those dirty delusional trannies we have here in Civilization
There's a demographic on this island whose name is their word for woman with a prefix that means "becoming," but also the first white guy to meet them, Count Racisto von Rapingham, said they were "hermaphrodites," so clearly it's woke and decolonial to continue calling them a "third gender" forever
