So much of what passes for political discourse is actually one person having a disgust reflex about someone else's life choices (or not choices, just reality) and retroactively trying to justify those by some kind of moral reasoning.

I wonder how long it will take them to cancel my ticket.
I will hold their "free speech" to the highest bar.

16/ These cranks share the ideology behind Hilary Cass’s infamous claim that trans healthcare is not a matter of social justice.
It is.
Without social justice in this context, corruption takes root within professions and government.

Political people love to debate who the worst modern PM in modern times was but it's unquestionably Cameron.
10 years ago this week he gambled the prosperity and fragile unity of the UK on a referendum on an issue that most people didn't even understand to placate back benchers and fucked us all.

I am devastated to hear of the passing of Nurul Amin Shah Alam. He was a refugee of the Rohingya genocide living in Buffalo, New York. Border Patrol agents wrongfully detained him and dumped him on the street in brutal winter conditions. Blind and walking with a cane, he died trying to get home.

Since this happened the trans group have stopped meeting. They feel too scared. This breaks my heart because i worked hard to create it but l cannot guarantee safety or security. Local groups are being forced indoors.
The local LGBT events venue was attacked last night. Someone put bricks through the windows. It had been reported in the Bolton News the week before as a 'sex club'. It is an events venue that groups can hire for parties. Our safe space for local trans people seems to be too much for some awful ppl.

No one will be shocked that overtly anti-trans officials have been appointed to the MHRA puberty blockers trial.
What is shocking is actual journalism being done to uncover them, and that when uncovered they've been removed.
An important step in the right direction.

When media figures claim to have been harassed or harmed by "far left activists" they are enjoying a victim status created out of their own abuses. When activists stand up to them and reveal the network that sustains them, they feel justified in blaming the very people they attempt to oppress.

Republicans got trounced trying bathroom bills in 2015, then spent 10 years astroturfing anti-trans propaganda to get where they are today, and supposedly Democrats are supposed to see that and say "Well, nothing we can do here, the public has spoken!"

Good luck. As a fmr professor, what I saw of the student's work, removed from the subject, the grade was warranted. Given any other topic a scholarly opinion paper that is not properly sourced, fact checked, and doesn't use proper citations to demonstrate how the opinion was formed, fails. Period!

Sun Tzu’s Art of War, but for American politics, and it’s just filled with obvious advice like “have a candidate that people like,” and “actually engage with the voters instead of just saying vote for me or you get the other guy.”

Govt still deliberately ignoring they have European Convention duties and obligations and the EHRC which is similarly bound isn't doing its job properly.
Not a surprise but shows how willfully blind and bigoted they are. I'm left wondering if a full impact assessment would show them up.

I hope we can believe in this ceasefire in Gaza.
The scars of the last 2 years will run for many decades.
Incalculable generational trauma.
How is it ever going to be possible to more forwards positively from these horrific events?

Yet another example of not MSM promoting the toxic turd over others❗️😡

Nigel Farage says Tony Blair 'not my choice' to help govern Gaza but understands Donald Trump's logic
Donald Trump has said former Labour prime minister Sir Tony Blair would head up a "Board of Peace" in Gaza.

5/ I once described the Supreme Court judgment in Scottish Ministers (and its fallout) as “borders on the illogical, pushes past irrationality”.
Expecting the courts to act rationally, then, may be asking too much.

4/ They say “men” and “women” are just words with a “purpose”, they no longer refer to actual people. And it’s so fucked up, it borders on the illogical, pushes past irrationality, and makes you seriously question the education of the judges involved.

This is a fundamental point that 99% of higher-ed coverage, and 100% of immig coverage, have missed.
A lot of people think that every international student admitted means one fewer spot for domestic students, when the opposite is more likely true - the tuition revenue international students bring allows public universities to provide substantial discounts to domestic students, improving access.
30% drop year over year!

Anti-trans hate group Genspect is formally calling for trans people to be repathologized. This is most certainly to set the stage for mandated conversion therapy and potentially forced institutionalization.
