I’m not a spokesperson for the Green Party but I think I have their core policy condensed into simple to understand words: ‘don’t be a dick!’
Don’t be a dick to: minorities, the climate, immigrants, your neighbors, other nations, animals, less well off folks, everyone.

genuinely insane we are at point "a person was afraid of someone who caused NO harm, so latter person needs to be segregated" rather than genuinely if YOU are so terrified of others on this level YOU are A PHOBE of some stripe and it is YOU who needs to leave. it IS bigots who need a third space imo

How on earth is a mandatory ID card compliant with GDPR rights - specifically the right to rectify and right to restrict processing?

Since everyone is talking about Charlie Kirk I have to admit I really didn't know how bad he was until today.
Seems he was a stochastic accessory to his own demise though.
Hopefully some good can come of it when folks realize that spewing hate does have consequences.

A wise old civil servant once told me that foreign secretary is where you put senior people to limit the damage they can do. Real foreign policy is done by the PM and the FSec is just the public relations arm with no real power. #cabinet-reshuffle #labour

I check this back in May. The act doesn’t even have the word ‘spaces’ in it.
Once again, I would like to remind people "single-sex spaces" is not in the Equality Act and hasn't been used in official government policy like ever
It's an ideological term by gender critical transphobes only now being used in official capacities because the EHRC/government are/is transphobic
It's an ideological term by gender critical transphobes only now being used in official capacities because the EHRC/government are/is transphobic
The totally captured by 'gender critical' transphobic ideology - EHRC - is now threatening 19 businesses for 'misrepresenting the Equality Act 2010' - despite the FACT the 'guidance' they issued is still INTERIM - NOT STATUTORY - guidance, and is being legally challenged on multiple fronts! 😤

Deeply concerned that changes to trans rights could be approved without MPs or the public seeing details. This risks undermining accountability on issues affecting lives and freedoms. Proposals must face scrutiny before approval. Everyone deserves to know what’s being decided in their name.

At some point in a possible enlightened future. Children will be taught about sex and gender. They will be able to choose the sex of their puberty and defer if they don't feel ready. If they feel they were mistaken later in life it will be changed with zero fuss. c.f. Iain M Banks Culture series.

AI can be useful, for instance telling me that the extra X-chromosome that the GCIM are so keen to highlight is largely inactive in women from about 10 days after fertilization. Its called X-inactivation. From then on its hormones all the way baby and we know they can be changed. #biological-sex

GOP politicians basically have a choice from one of three outcomes:
1. Stand up to Trump now and maybe face ridicule or deselection
2. Stand up to Trump later and face imprisonment or worse
3. Stand up in the dock at the Hague

It comes as no surprise that Russia, fascism and GCIM are all related. So if you are a TERF then you either accept you are a Russian shill or are a useful idiot.

As I understand it, cis folks feel dysphoria when given opposite sex hormones. Therefore a really good solution to ‘are you trans’ is just give the required HRT and see how they feel after a while.
In lieu of statistics, I offer this paper which explains that gatekeeping not only DOESN’T WORK but is actively DETRIMENTAL to detransitioners:

At this point I think I may be one of an incredibly small number of people to have read the second Sullivan report in detail. It is uniformly poor scholarship, containing flagrant fabrications and misrepresentations, calling into question Alice Sullivan's ability to conduct basic academic research

🏳️⚧️🚨 New letter from MPs on trans rights & EHRC Consultation on the #ForWomenScotland ruling.
I have written a letter to the EHRC to urgently raise concerns about the Draft Code of Practice consultation after the ruling. I am proud to say that 32 of my colleagues have signed it too.

The UK Supreme Court ruling redefined ‘sex’ – but for trans people, it’s the start of something far more sweeping and exclusionary

Not a game per se but did have an idea for a "Trans or Not" game (like "Hot or Not"). Where you are shown images of people and you have to guess their assigned sex at birth. Your score is publicly available to all. Ultimately I never coded it because its cruel and who wants to upload their photo?
