oh I forgot Dungeons & Dragons lol
if you've lived through multiple 'poisoning our children' moral panics already (for me tv, video nasties, heavy metal, hip hop, video games, grime, drill ... probably more I can't remember) then like me your attitude to the social media one is probably 'uh huh'

rather than banning phones from schools, the uk government could choose to actually force meta et al to moderate their platforms properly
Instagram has become a marketplace for neo-Nazis. Influencers are using the platform’s massive reach to glorify Hitler, deny the Holocaust, and sell merchandise. Their content, drenched in antisemitism, misogyny, and racism, reaches millions daily. Meta knows it — but refuses to act.

The News Agents is a great case study of centrism because they actively describe how the sausage is made and yet none of their audience say 'Wait - what the fuck do you mean you ran a story because some Labour spad told you to?'

In the last decade, the BBC has legitimised climate change denialism, paved the way for Brexit, defended the coup that was prorogation, over-platformed Farage's Far Right projects, and is neutral on our abandonment of human rights norms.

I think the combination of the dominance by the BBC of news, together with the levels of trust it enjoys, gives it a degree of influence which is unhealthy for it and for democracy. And it uses them to perpetuate a status quo-ism which is demonstrably failing the nation.

Personally I'd be pleased to see BBC News disappear entirely. To argue, as many do, that British politics or our news environment would be so much worse without the BBC you have to explain why British politics and news environment is so very bad with the BBC.

My piece on the allies being systematically intimidated is one of the bits of work I am most proud of putting together.
But beyond that it is a story of anti trans activists inside and outside the organisation working together to take down Tavistock and stop trans kids from existing.

From allies inside of Tavistock:
“Gender criticals claim they have been silenced, but they have been platformed in media and given words in articles, and space in interviews,”

If I had a national institution I wanted to undermine, Hanover Communications are who I’d go to.
They’ve been undermining the NHS for years, successfully lobbying for firms to get NHS ££, including US giant United Health, & providing staff to pro-private politicians.
It’s just what they do.

1/ Michael Prescott of Hanover Communications, whose leaked memo alleging left-wing bias led to the BBC meltdown.
You could be forgiven for thinking that a corporate lobbyist & former Murdoch press hack may not have the best interests of public-service broadcasting at heart.

At this point I do sincerely believe this anti phone and social media drive is rooted in the "social contagion" idea of being trans. They do not think she died because she used her phone, they think she died because people in her phone convinced her she was a girl.
Phones did not murder Brianna Ghey in cold blood.

I was watching this and waiting for her to claim she was shut down by some kind of shadowy trans lobby conspiracy, but it's not even that! She's somehow citing the fact that she *wasn't* hindered from pursuing an anti-trans line as proof of pro-trans bias?!

Policy Exchange have been driving the anti-phone thing simultaneously with their attempts to section 28 trans people and Duffield has been their useful idiot. It's got all the necessary ingredients for a moral panic and it's too much to ask politicians actually employ some critical thinking about it

it’s so instructive to watch this person continue to double down in her responses to the many, many trans people who have asked her to consider why it might be utterly repellent for the ghoul rosie duffield to swoop in on this weird, wrongheaded campaign
if it were ‘strangers on the internet’ I might think it was bizarre, yes. but it’s trans people who are profoundly affected by both the killing of brianna ghey and her mother’s subsequent actions who are speaking up here, and frankly this post is disrespectful and insulting.
Do you not think it's bizarre to have strangers on the internet decide they know better than Brianna's own loved ones on what is or isn't insulting to her memory?
I've got no time for Rosie Duffield, but she turned up at a drop-in event in Parliament and that's been the limit of her involvement.
