This is where "tough on crime" disposition gets you, you become so captured by the idea of punishing "wrongdoing" you completely forget towards what end so you're predisposed just start further victimizing the most vulnerable people.
oy, 🫣some of the 2007 federal grand jury testimony indicates that girls who came forward to Palm Beach Police c.2005 were told that *they* could be charged with sex trafficking because of their participation in Epstein & Maxwell's scheme to offer schoolmates money to come to Epstein's house

Usually wouldn’t rant about this topic

but clearly I have to because my position keeps being intentionally misrepresented.

Okay if I can be selfish for a moment:

I'm delisted from itch. In the UK you literally can not see my profile.

A big chunk of my income, my living money, comes from bundles like this. It would mean a lot if you could share it, send it to friends. 🧵

Please share this widely. There have been 13 peer-reviewed critiques of the Cass Review, to the extent that academia regards it as pseudoscience, but so far all have been subject to organised censorship by mainstream media. This is the first time one has broken through. Oz Guardian only still.
Worked hard to get this into Guardian Oz & big props to @fiercemum.bsky.social for setting it up & Melissa Davey for publishing it. She will doubtless get loads of hassle from transphobes for it, but it needs to be out there.

Today in things that are not difficult - distinguishing age play/age regression from abuse.
Also today in things that abusers do - deliberately confusing age play/age regression with abuse to expand the concept of "paedophile" in ways that shield abusers.

Every time I've pointed out that the only thing exceptional about Epstein is the wealth, I get a lot of angry men insisting they're deviants & "normal" people (men) don't share those views of rape & children. And yet we see time again how similar happens in smaller communities.
This is why I hate the patriarchal mythology that proximity to girls makes them protective, particularly men but also patriarchal women. It doesn't make child rape abhorrent to them when it's in-group men, only as a weapon to other out-group men.
Notably, Kelly is the mother of a 14-year old girl. Like, I know she's a soulless propagandist, but how does she not hear herself in the context of being a mother?

I hate this "phones" conversation regarding queer people and queer kids because the bottom line is, cishet society KNOWS. Right-wingers KNOW that the internet is how queer people connect to each other---hell, that marginalized people period use it to organize and educate.

That's why they hate it.

it's widely known that transphobic parents publicly brag about cutting their trans children off from friends and support systems especially by taking away their phones and isolating them from contact with outsiders, this anti-phone push is an attempt to make that the default condition of queer youth
So, given that a lot of trans people are offended that Brianna's transfemicide is being turned into a crusade against phone use, when Brianna had a supportive online community and was murdered offline by her classmates:

Do you think "Touch grass" is an appropriate response to that context?

IOC funding a study a year ago that showed trans women do not have an advantage over cis women in sports and may in fact have a disadvantage due to T suppression and now moving to ban trans women & intersex women while keeping israel around and starting the genital inspections anyway

An easy way to make sense of cishet guys being into femboys and that "not being gay" is that the core of what's always stigmatized "gay" is feminization, not same-sex activity in itself.

Male same-sex activity in a masculinizing context has always been a lot more socially acceptable.

Good news: the Queensland Government lost in court and the puberty blocker ban has been judicially overturned

Bad news: the Government has immediately indicated its position is "the court can go fuck itself, we're reinstating the ban"

Part of what really gets me so enraged with how Brianna Ghey’s death gets talked about is that I was once like her I was once a 16 year old trans girl seeking solace online

Two teenagers were radicalized by the transphobic political climate into seeing a 15 year old girl as less than human. They killed the girl, and then the girl's grieving mother chose to embark on a moral panic crusade against "self-harm", acquitting the actual perpetrators of her daughter's demise.

Brianna didn't die because of her self-harm or social media use. She was murdered in a transphobic hate crime.

Here is the interview I gave to Owen Jones at the time, as the only trans journalist reporting on the trial of her murderers.

Brianna keeps getting written about, even if not especially her own mother, like she tragically killed herself rather than was murdered in a transphobic hate crime
