Thinking about how one of the first Epstein victims was trans and got relentlessly mocked in the media when she spoke up www.lgbtqnation.com/2025/07/when...
When a trans woman first accused Jeffrey Epstein of rape, the media mocked her - LGBTQ Nation
The New York Post called her a "man" and a "gender-bend shocker."

Pizzagate: If you replace the word “hot dog” with “little boy” and “pizza party” with “child sex orgy,” you will see the lengths these elites go to cover up their crimes.

Horrifying to see Victoria seeking adult jail sentences for children. 14 year old could be deemed too young for social media in Aus but old enough for a life sentence in prison. So little care for actual children, but politicians happy to invoke "protect the children" to win political points #auspol

the entirety of the british press talked themselves into believing this woman is trans based almost entirely on JK Rowling's judgement of the athlete's appearance.
Nothing illustrates the arseholery of the IOC and the British Press more than the use of the image of a not-Trans woman to illustrate a story about trans women being banned (because there are no current trans women competing at this level)

Just in case you thought this was about trans athletes. This was solely about creating a fascist and racist gender bureaucracy over what constitutes being feminine enough to be considered a woman.
They're targeting cis women who may be intersex and banning them from sport.

Police allowed Nazi rally outside NSW parliament
More than 60 people attended Saturday morning’s rally after notifying police more than a week ago. The police commissioner said he had no idea it was going to happen.

also in addition to affirming his priorities he was fully like "whether you voted for me or not I look forward to serving you" and rhapsodized at length about the city and his love for it (the way he always has). yes he sounded victorious after his victory, did they expect asmr?
Telling the people who voted for you that you are going to pass the policies you ran on is not a "shift" from a "mollifying tone"
