„Die größte Gefahr der Moderne geht nicht von der Anziehungskraft nationalistischer und rassistischer Ideologien aus, sondern von dem Verlust an Wirklichkeit. Wenn der Widerstand durch Wirklichkeit fehlt, dann wird prinzipiell alles möglich.“
Hannah Arendt

Stole that from you lot 😘
No. Sorry. 💚
No we don't 💚🕊️♀️
Anyone who refuses to believe that women can become men, and women men, is called hateful and must be silenced. It’s a very strange experience to be called “hateful” when all you’re doing is trying to protect human rights.

“We protect free speech not because it’s fun but because it’s the only way we know of to do good research, to make good policy and to prevent ideologues from capturing governments, education and medicine.”

A MAN'S WORLD? A fascinating polisky analysis of more than 4,000 policies in 43 countries revealing clear and robust evidence that women’s policy preferences are underrepresented compared to those of men. Gender inequality extends to policy representation www.cambridge.org/core/journal...
Cis' is ideological language, signifying belief in the unfalsifiable concept of gender identity and based in queer theory. You have a perfect right to believe in these cultist concepts, but the rest of us have a right to disagree, and to refuse to adopt your jargon.
Cis is a slur indeed.
Wenn Linke sich in Machterhalt üben, dann bekommt man dieses Problem: Das Label rechts wird genutzt um zu diskreditieren. Durch die Verschmälerung des Diskurses entsteht ein Hohlraum, den Gegner demokratischer Inhalte nur füllen müssen und ganz leicht können.
Breaking: States that are aggressively bad at women's health care are bad at health care because they’re the same thing
Research in youth gender medicine is deeply flawed

Imagine “Misogynistic behaviour may include (i) attempting directly or through advocacy to remove women’s rights, (ii) misrepresenting women, (iii) abuse of women and (iv) systematically excluding women from discussions about issues that directly affect them.” Instead of 👇♀️
Chloe detransitioned and says puberty blockers aren't reversible.
Facts of life:
1) No person who has ever lived has been born in the 'wrong' body. People are their bodies;
2) 'Medically transition' means superficial cosmetic surgery & harmful wrong-sex hormones. It does not change a person's sex.
o dear!
I agree it's unethical to require people to sterilize themselves to legally change their 'sex.' The way out of this is for governments to say: We're not going to falsify your sex, no matter what you do.

The really perverse thing about trans/queer activism is that it presents itself as tolerant, diverse and progressive, when in fact it acts intolerant, simple-minded and regressive.
Maybe.. We'll see. 🤔
Das eigentlich Perverse an dem trans/queeren Aktivismus ist, dass er sich als tolerant, vielfältig und progressiv darstellt, obwohl er tatsächlich intolerant, einfältig und regressiv agiert.
"The research on which medical treatment for transgender young people in the Netherlands is based is scientifically flawed, say four leading methodologists and a professor of orthopedagogy"
Somewhere women's studies changed into gender studies and presto:
“Ideologue professors at our leading universities indoctrinate impressionable undergraduates with carelessly fact-free theories alleging that gender is an arbitrary, oppressive fiction with no basis in biology.”
--Camille Paglia
thank you. I miss voices like this on BlueSky
Pronouns aren't preferred if not using them comes with the threat of criminal conviction.
It's the very definition of authoritarian enforced speech.
Anyone who intends to criminalise telling the truth should never be given the reigns of power.
" 'Cis' is ideological language, signifying belief in the unfalsifiable concept of gender identity. You have a perfect right to believe in unprovable essences that may or may not match the sexed body, but the rest of us have a right to disagree, and to refuse to adopt your jargon."

It makes me sad when I see people who regard themselves as socially progressive using personal pronouns.
Imagine believing that voluntarily opting into a system (gender identity) that is rooted in regressive patriarchal gender constructs is progressive.
How is it that they don't realize this?!
