every leftist i know is very excited about technology but unfortunately they want tech that improves society and makes people's lives easier and that's harder for wealthy prdophiles to build a trillion dollar industry bubble around

HELLO I WAS A QUEER TEEN IN THE 1990s AND THE ARGUMENTS AGAINST SOCIAL TRANSITION NOW ARE INDISTINGUISHABLE FROM THE ARGUMENTS AGAINST "LETTING" US BE (at the time, for me) GAY OR LESBIAN THEN.

They all rest on the belief that it's inherently better to be straight (then)/cis (now) and that's BS.
Hilary Cass here arguing for children to be prevented from being known by a preferred name or getting a haircut in case it encourages them to continue later in life to transition.

Hilary Cass acts like gender variant children should have the transness hazed out of them.

This piece with Natalie Fleet is - quietly, gently - one of the most moving political interviews you will have heard in recent years.
"Epstein victims and Al-Fayed victims are watching what we do - they're not listening to what we say."

MP Natalie Fleet says it’s time to talk about the victims of sexual abuse with the same passion we’re talking about how bad the government is.

But even we ourselves do not fully realize the extraordinary, almost unreachable heights the Ukrainian people has attained -- especially considering the terrifying and irrational force that stands against it.

Good night to everyone from the fighting Ukraine! 🇺🇦

In a functional country, this would be a scandal. A service suffering only from chronic underfunding was ripped apart because the media created a myth of 1000s of complaints of malpractice. The truth - as in my family’s experience - was very different.

NHS closed Tavistock over care complaints – there were only eight
An eye-opening FOI report has revealed that just eight people complained about the Tavistock gender clinic's care provision in 10 years.

Fuentes, yesterday: “Our #1 political enemy is women because women constrain everything, every conversation, every man, everything. They have to be imprisoned. They are the ones that are hurting the fertility rate. They're the ones making us sympathetic to poor people, which are also brown people.”

I agree with Ed.

Jim Ratcliffe is a Billionaire who moved his money away from Britain to avoid paying taxes that would pay for the public services he relies upon.

Accusing others of ‘draining the state’ only draws attention to his own attempts to extract personal wealth and avoid paying his dues.
Totally wrong. Totally out of step with British values. He should apologise now.

And it also isn't true. After young women, young men are the least right-wing group in the UK, less right-wing than women in the next oldest age group.
