What's being proposed is horrific, demeaning, and ostracising for trans kids, and it's still not enough for these people becuase it allows a sliver of possibility for existing as a trans child. They wouldn't even be satisfied with a full ban because the concept of transness would still exist.
You all saw the guidance that went out yesterday for trans kids in schools. Absolutely horrific stuff.

This is how the right wing papers are covering that news. Times, Mail and Telegraph all have it on their front page, the first two as their main story of the day.

On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.

The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.

But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

Star Trek is objectively the funniest franchise to cry about Turning Woke
I have a friend who said, of Starfleet Academy, that this took them out of it - that seeing a person in a wheelchair in the 32nd century seemed unrealistic, since medicine in Star Trek "should be able to cure whatever was wrong with them."

That's not the case, for any number of possible reasons.

You may laugh, but the Macbeths are a much better role model for a marriage than Romeo and Juliet. They discuss their problems (killing the king of Scotland), share their hobbies (killing the king of Scotland), and resolve their conflicts (by killing the king of Scotland).

for better or worse, this will probably be the most successful and compelling argument by communities against ICE concentration camps being built:

I'm running out of ways to tell you that Labour are punishing trans people because they can and they want to.

I've joked before about needing a doctor's permission before getting a haircut, but the bigots are actually proposing that (for trans kids only of course, just like PBs, the cutting of a kids hair in an unapproved manner is dangerous and must only be undertaken with strict medical guidance)
This draft guidance reproduces Cass insisting that clinicians must be involved in decisions about *social transition* which actually should be none of their damn business

They take the line that this "non-directive" intervention should force things to be "keeping options open and flexible"...

Labour's Manifesto promised to ban conversion therapy. But I defy anyone to explain how, looking at the totality of its policy platform, Labour's real policy is anything other than promoting desistance.
Labour continues to troll the trans community - and to prioritise pleasing the right wing press. We know Hilary Cass was selected for her transphobic views: Kemi Badenoch told us exactly that.

So why is she running trans policy for Labour?

This guidance is horrifying, and translates as the *expectation* that schools be permitted to force young trans people back into the closet in most circumstances.

The expectation that doing so could successfully pressure them into no longer being trans into adulthood.

Institutionalised conversion
Again, the idea that "best interests" may be served by not *allowing* someone to undergo social transition at school is restated. (And that can include the best interests of OTHER PEOPLE!!)

Conversion practices are being directly written into the guidance.

This is how Labour talk about trans people behind our backs yet insist they’re the party of equality and we have no choice but to vote for them, btw
This is so infuriating. There was quite a big debate over ruling out tax rises! Rachel Reeves just shut it down by answering every single bloody time "well, being in government would be a nice problem to have"!!!
