I know we're past discussion in this topic but I'd love to hear what any of the moderates on TRA (trans rights activism) has to say about this one. We all know what I think, we all know what Lexy thinks. Let's hear from the sensible golden mean people.


Also, if we're posting stories from beyond the UK here, then let's hear on the topic of the consequences of self-ID in my home country:

“Dangerous” Trans-Identified Male Pedophile Under Investigation For Sexually Assaulting Female Inmates In Canadian Women’s Prison


This story is pretty remarkable, though maybe not so much for Canada. In summary, a serial rapist gets jailed. He's told he can’t leave prison ever again because he raped so much that doctors don’t believe he is capable of not raping. He then declares himself trans, opting into womanhood, and gets moved to a women’s prison. Where he keeps raping.


A Canadian mother is outraged after she was told that a balding man wearing a penis sling and fake breasts had a "right" to use the female changing room at her local pool.

It’s very telling that you ignored everything I posted to continue posting articles from a far right hate website. And passing yourself off as someone who gives a **** about sexual violence in prison, because if you actually cared about anything other than trying to smear the trans community, you would make mention of the rampant violence and sexual assault trans women undergo in male prisons (look up “v-coding”, and remember that in America there has been a government campaign to transfer all trans women prisoners to male prisons).

Good to know you haven’t grown a shred of compassion for a group of marginalized people under a campaign of constant dehumanization from the government and media and threats of mass state sanctioned violence even when it’s gotten as far as it has. But I guess don’t know what I expected from the guy who thinks the idea of trans people killing themselves is funny.

The "far right hate site" posts factual stories no one else would touch. They are no less factual for being posted there. They are no less representative of the consequences of the polite fiction that bepenised persons can "become" women.

I said I did?

The entire site exists to obsessively chronicle every factual story involving a ****ty person who is trans, it's entirely biased toward such stories, uses constant disingenuous framing and includes zero reporting on good things trans people do, using biased, dehumanizing and yes, hateful language. If you made a site that exclusively reports on black people committing crimes and called them racist slurs the whole time, that's a racist hate website no matter how factual the article subjects they cherrypick are. That site was also founded by a nazi sympathizer. Kiwifarms also posts factual stories, that doesn't make the people who post there decent human beings who are interested in credible and fair journalism.

Thanks for reminding me of this joke, one of my better ones imho

If you are only interested in the POVs of decent human beings, what do you make of this one? https://x.com/DarlingtonUnion/status...70342635909422
