Thatcher's government did this with Section 28, banned the "promotion of homosexuality" as a danger to children, while actively protecting Jimmy Savile and who knows how many other pedophiles. It's the same damn playbook.
I cannot begin to properly articulate how upsetting it is to have had people baselessly accuse trans people of being groomers and pedophiles only for it to come out that they were deliberately doing this as part of a project to provide cover to actual groomers and pedophiles in positions of power

Thinking about how one of the first Epstein victims was trans and got relentlessly mocked in the media when she spoke up www.lgbtqnation.com/2025/07/when...
When a trans woman first accused Jeffrey Epstein of rape, the media mocked her - LGBTQ Nation
The New York Post called her a "man" and a "gender-bend shocker."

one would argue trump's southern spear has featured extensively in the files
Wag the Dog (1997 movie) plot:
A US President is caught in a sex scandal involving an underage girl, and in order to distract attention from the scandal they invent a fake war with another country.

Bob Iger says Disney+ will soon have AI-generated short form content from users.
This is the platform that wants you to pay $189.99 per year.

i will go further than this and tell you that if you're still writing for the NYT in 2025 i see you as an active participant in the campaign of hatred sweeping america, we're well past the point where "i'm changing things from the inside" was believable
I think there are a number of people employed at the New York Times -- certainly not all of them, but many! -- who simply do not grasp how badly the paper's credibility has been shaken over the past few years, along several different axes, and for multiple different reasons

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX
