Ah! Got banned from #Reddit for calling out the #UK #Politics shitheads for #Transphobia and promoting #FarRight propaganda. (Like Tweets by Britain First.)

They took this personally, and ran crying to the site admins, who remain as craven as ever.

Utter turds, but also ones who can give it, but not take it. #Lemmy looks nice this time of year.

Poilievre came out in support of hate. Took his mask off.

Long 2 years till election, Poilievre won't be able to play pretend, his party won't let him. Already screwing up his play on India's assassination of Canadian in Canada

#CanPoli #Canada #ConvoyOfHate #Transphobia

Every one of these people sobbing their faces off and going into hysterics about #drag shows and drag storytime is 1000 percent full of shit. They are not trying to prevent #kids from being exposed to “#sexual material”; they want, desperately and with their whole hearts, a way to (further) marginalize #LGBTQ+ people without coming off as the #bigoted assholes they obviously are.

TFW your mandated "workplace harassment training" teaches that "a person may identify as a man, a woman, transgender, or non-binary"

Yeah, folks, you heard it here first/sarcasm

Parent corporation spending who knows how much on this bullshit, and likely funneling much more to transphobic politicians/organizations, while employees get no raises and reduced benefits.

I think there is something suspect about that Guardian story, if anyone else is able to find this mysterious new NHS training module they're referring to, please let me know. The only module I can find dates from April this year.

#Guardian #Transphobia #Clickbait

Trudeau said #BIPHOBIA along with #homophobia and #transphobia in a tweet, and apparently the #gay and #lesbian birdsite is having a fit. Or at least the biphobes among them are. Yet I'm not seeing the rest crawl out of the woodwork to tell them that biphobia is real and wrecks lives.

The transphobes at the Guardian seem excited that the NHS has produced guidance for schools on how to support transgender students. https://web.archive.org/web/20230921141844/https://www.theguardian.com/education/2023/sep/21/parents-should-know-if-school-pupils-socially-transition-says-nhs-england

Meanwhile, I'm struggling to find the guidance they're talking about. Suspiciously they haven't linked to it from their story. All I've managed to find is this from June https://www.england.nhs.uk/commissioning/spec-services/npc-crg/gender-dysphoria-clinical-programme/implementing-advice-from-the-cass-review/

If that's what the Guardian is referring to, they're engaging in clickbait journalism.

Thanks to the British news media: either egregiously transphobic or at best sowing uncertainty by presenting us as a "debate”. A toxic one because of "both sides”, ie our side who want to exist and the other side who want us gone.

I look forward to our pathetic MPs capitalising on this.

So apparently tomorrow is a "Million blah blah" hate filled anti-trans protest day. The haters are going to School District offices around BC (Canada?). I won't post their disgusting poster that mentions Frankenstein. Anyway, people are organizing against them. If you are an #LGBTQ2S supporter please see if there is a protest/counter protest happening near you.

In preparation I raised the flag.Hope one of them sees it tomorrow, we are only a few blocks from the SD office.

Trans women do not have 'male socialisation'. They don't benefit from it. They never had it.

The behaviours people ascribe to a trans woman's 'male socialisation' is usually either her being assertive (women, ESPECIALLY trans women should never be assertive /s), or being vocally angry. This is just transmisogyny and misgendering using feminist buzzwords. It says to the trans woman that if she wants to be accepted as a woman, she must be demure, quiet, and accept the scraps given. That she cannot self advocate.

Stop saying that shit.
