“If you were that sick you would be dead.”

“If it were that bad you would get help.”

“If you can post on social media you’re fine”.

Disabled people are constantly subjected to “if” statements from people who have no concept how bad it can get & how little help is available

UK ignores a foundation of Natural Justice to charge members of Palestine Action under closed material procedure (CMP) with secret court, unknown charges, unknown evidence, and no opportunity to challenge case.

We must try to stop the government from implementing an under 16 internet ban, and hence 🆔 required.

NZ 🤡 will probably pass it under urgency.

Increasingly of the view as this spreads that:

(a) this is a grab for all adults' identity documents so there can be no truly pseudonymous posting as far as the state is concerned; and

(b) states want to be free to indoctrinate Gen AA (or whatever we're calling them) while they're impressionable.
