We deplore racist attacks at home for the same reason we deplore genocide abroad: we believe in the equal value of human life.

Can't help but feel the universe is therefore thinking "I let my big bang down, I let my stars down, I let my planets down, and ultimately I let myself down." Hopefully it's understanding itself through all the non-human life instead and blissfully ignorant of us... the shadow part.
We are the cosmos made conscious and life is the means by which the universe understands itself.

Arresting those for attending a welcome talk is an unprecedented level of police repression that has never been seen before in the UK. Repression means the state is nervous and we are winning.

I took ten minutes of my day to tell this establishment a little bit about the reputational damage hosting an event could do in a small country like Ireland. I'm not trans or gay or a member of any minority. I'm just a plain-vanilla middle-aged white-guy who believes there's no place for hate.
The “Natural Women’s Council” is hosting a conference in Johnstown on April 5 topic is “resistance to transgender indoctrination”
Notable TERFs + transphobes are speaking. Contact the venue and let them know: platforming hate is not neutral.

As mass murder and genocide escalate in #Gaza, the UK government should denounce them, cut off all support to Netanyahu's government and assist in its prosecution. Instead, Starmer silences his ministers. In doing so, he facilitates the crimes.
