With the American military adopting such pointlessly cruel and antagonistic anti-LGBTQ+ policies it’s good to see some other countries are taking the opposite approach.

8. But these new stories apparently indicate the opposite—that, like many institutions, the BBC is arguably backing down from ethical and scientifically rigorous coverage in order to cater to the anti-trans agenda. Instead, it has reverted back to pejorative terms to refer to transgender people.

4. In the report on the Linehan verdict, BBC culture reporters Ian Youngs and Paul Glynn described Brooks as someone who was “born a biological male but identifies as a woman”—and the article itself appears to tactfully avoid referring to Brooks with any pronouns.

1. It would appear that in recent reporting, the BBC is now using the phrase "biological male who identifies as a woman" when they mean to talk about a transgender woman.

If you don't get that the "yucky porn games" are the gateway to censor further media that YOU personally think is acceptable, you need to get your head out of your ass. They're trying to divide people into smaller groups so their collective power is also smaller. Kill the cop in your head.
Already seeing folks say, "Well, HORSES isn't YUCKY PORN like other games are, so..." which is super frustrating.
Now is NOT the time to be throwing the hentai games you happen not to like under the bus. Your rage should be directly at payment processors.

In a sane world, the government guilty of committing genocide would be dismantled, and forced to pay reparations. Instead they are allowed to corral their victims into a concentration camp and steal their land. We live in the most obscene of all possible timelines.
