Referring to LGBT+ people as "mentally ill" or "abnormal" is not "a discussion."
It's not "an opinion."
It's not "free speech."
It's not "debate."
It's hatemongering, with the clear and obvious intent to mark a minority out for subjugation, torture and violence.

FWIW, until they shrug their shoulders at soldiers shooting children and the security forces colluding with terrorists to do things like murder musicians, they are in no way worse than Thatcher. We are not forgetting how absolutely vile that woman was because this lot are shite.
I'm writing about the Palestine Action hunger strikers at the moment, any of whom could die at any moment, and the astonishing media and government silence surrounding them. The Establishment seems to have become even crueller than when Thatcher was PM.

It is about truth.
For example. The "gender critical" movement aren't "branded" "gender critical," they invented that term to gain legal protection for transphobia.
Also, what is objectively true is that the GC movement allies with domestic abusers.

Anti-trans people must think trans people are thick. You should, of course, assess the threat a person poses to your safety and protect yourself accordingly.

New Zealand's libertarian/ populist/ right wing coalition Government is trying to follow Wesley Streeting's lead in banning puberty blockers.

![[17] There is also no evidence of a particular need to act urgently to prevent new prescriptions because of some immediate risk to physical health if young people commence treatment. [18] Puberty blockers are reversible. There is no evidence that they affect fertility. If they did, they would hardly be prescribed for children with precocious puberty and they have been prescribed for that purpose for decades. They may alleviate distress for a child who is simply not ready to cope with puberty either because they are too young or because their mental health is such that a delay is recommended. The only evidence-based impact on physical health is on bone density and that impact results from long term use. A period of months until the Judicial Review can be heard is not said to create any issues with bone density for a young person commencing treatment. [19] The evidence relating to mental health outcomes suggests negative outcomes from a ban are a far more immediate concern.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:xurjtu2wa2akyi64gab34ahg/bafkreih3dcnwld4y5s4wqdtgps3fdhnnw2jcetmvkit4ictclmkfixiese@jpeg)

JK Rowling once said "ignoring racist abuse leaves targets feeling isolated and abuse. Hate loves silence, which it takes for consent." And yet, she is supporting Sandie Peggie, who was revealed in her tribunal to be an horrendous racist, without caveat. That means that Rowling's silence is consent.

I would encourage people in the UK to complain to the BBC about unquestioning platforming a person who uses transphobic slurs on trans healthcare.
If they do not get a satisfactory response, escalate the complaint to Ofcom.

Remember that this is The Daily Mail, so this headline is not actually what the person said or did.
They said that smaller portions should be offered as an option to smaller people, which would often include women and shorter men.
There's nothing inherently wrong with this.

Read the ruling and you'll find that the tribunal found Beth Upton to be calm and largely credible, and they accepted her account of the 2023 incident concluding that Peggie had deliberately engineered a confrontation, and had, in fact, harassed Upton.
