At a certain point, the obsessive weirdness and cruelty of the GC cult becomes more obvious to the bulk of people who might otherwise have swallowed the "reasonable concerns" line.
One such mask off moment was Falkner's "all the trannies are banned, immediately" rant on Radio 4 a year ago.

Do you believe that? That's the reason they gave for not appealing the s35 against gender recognition reform, even though the SC ruling completely neutered the UK gov's justification for it. Are you just accepting we won't get a CP ban because of vague court case potential?
I would warn the SNP are great at overpromising and underdelivering. They dropped a slate of progressive legislation in the last year. One of their promises is to bring a Conversion Practices ban if the UK doesn't. Nicola Sturgeon promised the exact same 5 years ago.
The background is distorted stripes of dark and light blue, green, orange, yellow and red. In the centre is a white square that says "Scottish Election 2026 - Party manifestos summary: LGBTQIA+ issues" At the bottom are the Equality Network and Scottish Trans logos.
The Scottish Parliament Election is coming up on the 7th May. Ahead of the election, we have created a summary of the relevant commitments and comments from the manifestos of all the parties currently projected to win seats.

Well let's see how this strategy of telling "white liberals" to "fuck right off" works out in the local elections
The bullying of Dr Upton continues. What a shit-poke you must be to feel you should give your life to bullying a minority. Utter voids of people.
Alternate, more honest post: Kevin McKenna slevers about shite that he’s made up to frighten himself with.
Does he mean Ru? RU Paul?
Write to Stonewall.
• Tell them you supported them in the past.
• Tell them why you won’t be supporting transphobia.
Cut direct debts.
Don’t by the merch.
Tell your direct contacts.
Looking forward to Kezia Dugdale and everyone else at @stonewalluk.bsky.social explaining to me how we are supposed to “debate” people like this.
This is huge. And it provides a major test for Peter Magyar and whether he will comply with pro LGBTQ decisions from the EU invalidating Hungarian laws.

A troubling development. Article in the European Journal of Developmental Psychology “Cass Informed Therapy for gender distressed youth”.
Anyone know who Anna Hutchinson is? Or what she thinks “Cass informed therapy” looks like?
Conversion therapy is my guess.
Thanks @karabergkara.bsky.social
In contrast, when the gay rights cause first got going, the ideal was toleration. Gays and lesbians should have freedom from aggression and discrimination, but other people didn't have to like it. Over time, though, the big idea became "cultural change", meaning bringing about a widespread morality shift; and suddenly, everybody did have to like it. The concern became influencing what went on inside people's heads and policing what they said out loud; and self-ID provided the perfect vehicle.
I'm late to the Kathleen Stock article but I'm sorry, WHAT?
She wasn't even there. Like, I'm happy for people coming out at any age, but she has literally rocked up and started rewriting queer history and speaking for lesbians who actually were there and happen to think she's a transphobic twat
Tweet by Martina Navratilova. "Predator. That is how he should register. A sexual predator…" quote-tweeting a tweet by "Biology Rules OK" about Dr. Beth Upton, a trans woman
This tweet is highly defamatory and Martina Navratilova should be fired from BBC Sport for it.
It demonstrates an horrendous level of hatred for a trans woman (who was cleared of all wrongdoing in a recent tribunal) because she is a trans woman.

My book is out now!!
Jacob’s Transition Goals is a positive, hopeful story about an 8 year old transgender boy who loves football. In today’s political climate, trans joy is so needed - you should grab a copy!
You can buy Jacob’s Transition Goals in LGBTQ+ bookshops and online all over the world
I feel like Kevin McKenna must have something on the editor of the Herald for him to be allowed to keep spouting his unhinged anti-LGBT+ propaganda.
*a say
The Supreme Court is taking up a case on whether Catholic schools that refuse to accept the children of gay parents are entitled to taxpayer funding.
I'm sure it will be 6-3 with the answer being yes.

This is a really good response. It's absolutely ludicrous a newspaper's editor doesn't have a day on its front page ads!

Nothing else will do.

Exactly and I'd say the same to those excusing Girl Guides and Women's Institute for excluding trans people: when the choice is exclusion of a persecuted minority OR ceasing to exist; why is it always presumed the former is preferable?
Screenshot of a tweet: God Save Great Britain & @GSGB01 WOW: The NHS has ordered staff not to use the phrase 'It's raining cats & dogs' in fear of upsetting people from other cultures and religion. Britain has gone absolutely
Screenshot of a tweet: @Jenny_1884 The NHS has ordered staff not to use the term "It's raining cats & dogs" as it may offend foreigners. Tough If you don't like it jog on is what I think The NHS needs to get back to concentrating on making people better & not being more concerned about offending
For the love of God, could the "common sense" brigade PLEASE develop some actual COMMON SENSE?!
No, the NHS has not ordered staff not to use the term "it's raining cats and dogs" for fear of either upsetting or offending anyone...
Please engage your brains for a minute🙏

I know this is not the point but, in case it's useful to know in future, Beira's Place is absolutely not a shelter. It is useful to transphobes for us to think it is but it's basically a glorified signposting/referral service.

What’s your favorite Bible verse? (Wrong answers only)
'We all get hurt by love
And we all have our cross to bear
But in the name of understanding
A problem should be shared'
