Never forget the same people defending pedophilia have spent years trying to convince the public that drag queens and trans people are a threat to children.
It’s all smoke and mirrors to allow the real predators to roam free.

I truly believe that Wes Streeting has the ideas, the charisma, and the likeability to be an even more historically hated Prime Minister than Keir Starmer

Why It’s Easier to Rob a Museum Than a Jewelry Store in France
It’s not just the Louvre. Minimal security and the high price of gold have fueled nine heists over the past year.

You’ve probably seen a lot of stuff about James Watson stealing Rosalind Franklin’s DNA research. Read this clear article by two eminent historians of science to understand what *actually* happened 👇
If I see one more stupid Rosalind Franklin take I'm going to lose my mind. Thank god for @matthewcobb.bsky.social and @nccomfort.bsky.social. www.nature.com/articles/d41...
What Rosalind Franklin truly contributed to the discovery of DNA’s structure
Franklin was no victim in how the DNA double helix was solved. An overlooked letter and an unpublished news article, both written in 1953, reveal that she was an equal player.

#Disney has always been the biggest creator of problematic issues with #StarWars. The situation around #TheHuntForBenSolo proves it. Shelving it was not driven by profit, but by ego and being out of touch. Those men need to go.

‘The Hunt For Ben Solo’: Steven Soderbergh & Adam Driver’s Secret ‘Star Wars’ Movie Was Greenlit Before Disney Pulled The Plug [Exclusive]
Shoulda, woulda, coulda, I guess. Six months ago, I learned that Steven Soderbergh and Adam Driver had quietly developed a post- “Rise of Skywalker” “Star Wars” film titled “The Hunt For Ben Solo,” written by Scott Z. Burns, but out of an abundance of reporterly caution, I didn’t go forward with the story. This week, Driver himself revealed the project’s existence in an Associated Press interview, confirming that he and Soderbergh had worked on a “Star Wars” movie that never came to fruition.

Men like Piers Morgan have found women in trans women who it is socially acceptable to abuse.
Every time they do this stuff they are telling you how they'd treat cis women if they could get away with it.
