Rosie Duffield is thrilled tho, so there’s that. Pure ideology, no thought to the girls that’ll miss out, who won’t be able to join with their friends, who’ll be further isolated. But well done to all involved tho.

The Grauniad's long-term platforming of transphobia is, of course, at least partially responsible for this monstrous othering of children who just want to be themselves in the most authentic way.

It is important to see this article as a victory lap for @theguardian.com, which has steadfastly advanced the cause of transphobia and bigotry against trans people at every opportunity.

Real "we're all trying to find the guy who did this" energy.

Our government could do something about this. They could step up and protect its citizens from a few deranged (but rich) cranks.

They won’t though, because they’re cowards. Scared that a newspaper might be mean about them. Pathetic little cowards, it’s all so goddamn awful.

If this is not reversed quickly, there is a real risk that young members harm themselves because of this decision. Imagine being stripped of your community as a teenage trans girl already dealing with so much in the current environment. Unforgivable.

Briefly talked abouyt this at the end of my stream tonight and it's fucking heartbreaking. One of the safest spaces in the county having to fold or risk financial ruin because JKR is a hateful piece of shit.

I hate pondering what more it's going to take.

One heartening thing I'm keeping in mind - I actually found out about this via a video of a unit leader who was upset and saying she would ignore this rule. The comments were also full of other leaders saying they would ignore this. This rule is horrible but leaders know what's up.

I can't imagine this needs to be said to any Guardian reader, but a reminder: Woodcraft Folk will always be inclusive and support of all children and young people, so if any were hoping to join GG and are now feeling lost, maybe you could try them?

Obsessive 'gender critical' transphobes have been gunning for Girl Guiding for YEARS! 😣

They are just nasty little bigots pushing their own brand of cruelty and exclusion and directly hurting a handful of trans girls!

A mum of a trans girl wrote this 8 years ago when they started their campaign...
Girl Guides: How to radicalise hate against trans children in 10 easy steps
Tomorrow, following a short but successful propaganda campaign, a UK Newspaper will publish an open letter asking Girl Guiding UK to suspend their policy of inclusion for All Girls, including those…

Funny how @zackpolanski.bsky.social suggesting a raft of policies to try and improve the lives of the vast majority is ‘fantasy economics’, but when Brexiteers were allowed to indulge their lunatic fantasies about leaving the EU it somehow became ‘The Will of the People’. 🦄🤔

If you think that surely this can’t be true, watch how these clowns react when their demented jihad conflicts with some other rights they theoretically hold dear, and what takes priority.

Why don’t the government act against this? Because their entire philosophy is based on giving our horrific press what they want and siding with powerful, wealthy people to stomp upon troublemakers. Their strategy on culture war matters was always total capitulation and cooperation across the board.

They can afford to lose case after case, pump gajillions into this malicious horseshit, so long as the keep racking up crushing victories that wreck organisations, where everyone can see. And they won’t ever stop, because they are utterly committed, malignant crackpots.

Has now hit the town’s Facebook group, forcing us all to decide whether to pull the kids out or not. And that’s what organised crackpot culture war campaigning has always been: it deliberately shits through your letterbox, and then forces *you* to deal with their mess.

Do you notice how this is worse than what’s happening in Trump’s America? Because we are in some ways much further down the extremist radicalisation spiral, because Britain is dominated by the English-speaking world’s most toxic and hateful media outlets, and by fuck those people get what they want.

These evil, spiteful ghouls thought they’d score an awesome Supreme Court victory and then society would salute their bravery, and rise up to enforce their fucknut politics. That hasn’t happened and it won’t happen, so now society will be *forced* to comply in a blizzard of squillionaire litigation.

For non-Brits: nobody can afford to get sued by revved-up wingnuts and crackpots armed with JK Rowling’s money, and nobody wants to be the next organisation protested by the far right and monstered into the heart of the earth by the world’s most poisonous media outlets. So they are folding.

Can you imagine how scared and traumatized the six year old must be? It’s scary enough enrolling in a new school but to be hauled off by a gang of state sponsored criminals and held in an unknown location?! He could have been trafficked for all we know. This regime is intentionally evil to kids

I can’t imagine having my six year old separated from me and incarcerated at all, let alone not knowing where they would be. This is child abuse and as a trauma therapist, these children will be greatly impacted, perhaps for the rest of their lives. My heart is breaking for every person impacted.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.
