I hope you’re keeping receipts

🎯 "The former first minister mourns the rise of the far right but doesn’t see her culpability in fostering an environment of intolerance on the so-called progressive left that validates hate and pits the women who wouldn’t wheesht as the enemies of the state."

We need to reclaim middle ground.

In what ways?

I wonder if they’ll reevaluate his Meritorious Service Medal?

Was he involved with the case against the Vancouver rape crisis center?

Nah I’m just talking about celebration and justification of murder. I fully support discussing, attacking, and disproving his ideas.

Sure, I don’t agree with him on barely any point except trans issues, but I don’t celebrate his death. I think we forget these are real people. If I agree he deserved to die, what is to stop people who hear JKR’s "dogwhistle" of "literal genocide" from agreeing with a similar fate for her?

Have you fact checked what you’re saying? I’m genuinely scared of opposing camps justifying murder of the other for things they say. That’s how wars start.

Murder though? Sure you support it?

This is how it escalates. Have you seen him say these things? To me they sound a lot like "Rowling is causing genocide against trans people"

Who gets to decide who deserves to die? It scares me that murder is being justified. Who will feel emboldened to take up arms against others whose words they disagree with?

Equally macabre. But the equivalent would be to celebrate the shooter in this case, right?

It’s not worse. I think a key difference is that there are people rejoicing in murder and that scares me.

It’s just about treating all male people the same. Most men realise it’s nothing personal and understand why it is necessary, because they know what other/some men are like. Can’t judge the book by its dress cover.

Not to the TRAs.

In any other context, disassociating from your body is a sign of illness. Pair that with media fueling the idea dangerous far right-winger naz1s are secretly influencing public policy and you’ve got the perfect mix for paranoid delusion.

Infuriating. The harms done by this movement to suggestive young minds. He was transitioned as a child. How does that align with detransitioners being ‘not really trans’?
