Just so we're clear, an open Rachel Oates supporter is now defending/laughing about the UK government's murder of 16 trans youth. How long will it take for Oates' audience to wake up and realize that good people don't attract these sorts of allies? This is what Oates 'inspires'.

Today's video explores the Cold War's impact on the West, specifically how the Red Scare laid down the groundwork for the modern anti-trans panic in sports. From the media's open misogyny to literally cartoonish fearmongering, there's a lot to unpack.

Okay, good news if we've reached the desired amount. It's possible we might need more depending on whether we find a place direct or go through an agent, so I'll keep you all posted. Again, big thanks to everyone who chipped in.

Hey everyone, our landlord has just told us that we have until the 13th of July to move out. We're still looking for a place, but we'll need money to pay the deposit/help with the move.
We're looking to raise $500.

Please, help however you can. - Ethel

... and tortures children before her demise in which she's carried off and raped. Makes one wonder why Rowling picked the name for her specifically... Thought to add here incase anyone else wanted to talk about it in their own post. If so, do send me a link!

Something I regret not elaborating on is how Dolores (i.e. 'Lolita' as Humbert calls her) shares a name with one of Rowling's most despised characters, Dolores Umbridge, a hyper-feminine teacher who surrounds herself with all things cute...

In a recently rediscovered interview, self-proclaimed ‘defender of women and girls’, J.K. Rowling, gushed about how much she viewed Lolita — a story in which a 38-year-old man kidnaps and rapes a 12-year-old girl — as a “great and tragic love story”.

Fuck! I deleted a comment I should have captured. It said it didn't know what I identified, but I'm the R-word. I clicked delete upon seeing that, only to read the next line which read "You are estrogen personified!" Like, fuck! That would have been funny to share.

J.K. Rowling and Kemi Badenoch’s lies about beloved actor David Tennant have backfired, showing your average person the cruelty that defines gender ‘critical’ fascism and anti-trans bigotry in general. We all love to see it! #ProtectTransKids

A second NHS whistleblower has confirmed that the UK government knowingly covered up the deaths of 16 children whose access to care was disrupted by the Bell v Tavistock ruling in order to justify further even more extreme bans on that very same care.

Today's video is a celebration of early trans history in sports, as well as a reminder of how we came to be where we are today with regards to transmisia and misogyny dominating the decisions of the International Olympic Committee and World Athletics.

Anti trans bigots are absolute ghouls! Imagine posting such a comment, targeting a trans child who posted seeking support because they're genuinely scared of how quickly things are breaking down in the UK. Again, targeting a literal child seeking support!

Today’s video explores one of the many ways transphobes try to poison discussion surrounding trans people, namely via appeals to disgust regarding surgery and HRT. Not only is this reasoning fallacious, it is effectively playground logic.

An NHS whistleblower has come forward about the fact that 16 teens took their own lives following the 2021 restrictions on trans youth healthcare. This comes just as the UK's ‘equalities’ minister boasts about stacking government with anti-trans bigots.

As a trans person, it can be difficult to hold onto the hope that things will get better, yet we are not alone in our struggle for survival. Today’s video explores efforts by the Good Law Project to restore gender-affirming care for trans youth.

CW suicide

I am a survivor of conversion therapy as a teen where I was put under suicide watch while being subjected to it because they knew that was a possible outcome, they just didn't want to be liable. They are OK with dead trans kids as long as they don't face legal consequences. #trans

Not only that, the whistleblower claims that the NHS knew and took measures to cover this up. I'm working on a video regarding the issue, but wanted to share it. I feel like there should be some sort of vigil held for these nameless 16 whom the NHS tried to erase.

C.W: Suicide Something that seems to have largely been ignored regarding the Good Law Project's campaign to overturn the NHS ban on puberty blockers is the fact that an NHS whistleblower has linked 16 child suicides to the earlier Bell v Tavistock ruling.

The situation in the UK has broken down such that Labour is now reinforcing far-right sentiments. They're calling for anti-trans segregation whilst promoting the idea that a Jewish conspiracy is decreasing white fertility by turning 'naive girls' trans.

as a first-gen American, it's been really scary and depressing to see the whiplash from the Trump years when liberals had very strong, positive messaging for immigrants to today where supposed "allies" argue violating international law is a "necessary evil" and whip out polls to say it's all okay.

Today's video is an introduction to, defence, and celebration of xenogender folk. By comparing the actions of those subscribing to the classical genders to those of xenogender people, one can't help but see the hypocrisy in the way they're demonised.

Sex-selective abortions are still legal in the UK as well as many other countries, so long as they’re targeted at intersex people. This discriminatory and genocidal practice recently became the latest ‘hot gossip’ following a Gemma Collins interview.

Transphobia has poisoned people's minds in the UK to the point that anti-trans bigots are now targeting people for simply having trans family members, including 3-year-old toddlers! Violence that is firmly rooted in gender 'critical' fascism.
