I don't think a lot of people get quite how bad the situation has got with targeted attacks on the migrants rights and refugee sector.
My wife would be very happy if I left the sector I know that for sure. It's also just getting worse, stoked in no small part by government rhetoric and policies.

🔴I wrote about far-right attacks against refugee charities and why some are choosing to leave the sector to protect themselves. It's awful but understandable.

Being a British parent is so weird bc you're actually worried about paying the sky high rent/mortgage & getting GP appointments but the entire press keeps telling you you're worried there's a trans person or immigrant nearby & the vat on Eton means there'll only be two skiing holidays this year

Here is your friendly occasional reminder that as a Tier 4 then Tier 2 immigrant, I could not access any benefits (and this was printed specifically on my visa), could not vote in any UK election (not even local council), and paid an NHS charge with the amount linked to the length of my visa.

The micro-aggressions are daily, the abuse regular, and the threat of violence constant. I need you to understand what this country feels like right now for those of us who feel different. Because only then you might glean what those flags going up signify to someone who looks like me. 3/

I have two professor colleagues who have faced threats and harassment due to the organization Charlie Kirk built, and they were not alone. We can denounce and loathe political violence without hagiography for its victims. This is dangerous nonsense.
"But I envied what he built. A taste for disagreement is a virtue in a democracy. Liberalism could use more of his moxie and fearlessness."
That is Ezra Klein.

Good to see women speaking out on this.
Harder borders and more deportations will not make women and girls safer.
We need resources going into justice, support for survivors and education.

Correct. Aspire to have a house people want to be at. To be able to knock up a dinner people remind you of in the future. To be able to, without planning, say ‘seeing as you’re here, would you like to stick around for dinner’ and throwing something really delicious.
really nothing better than being able to entertain friends with food and drink

There's a kind of male violence that is often misinterpreted as being in defense of women when it's actually in defense of who has the right to harm women (in a "we do; they don't" mode, see KKK, southern lynching, etc.)
"They did not show up for any of the other outrages against women and girls ... the only kinds of riots that are ever treated with such solicitousness, such strenuous attempts to 'understand', such charitable interpretation — are race riots." @leninology.bsky.social
