Most troubling of all: this is all very coordinated, backed (indeed often led) by the State, and these outcomes are exactly what is sought. 👇🏻
The exclusion of trans people from public and academic spaces, removal of protections by human rights institutions, dehumanising language used by state news media, judicial tolerance of trans directed hate crime, withdrawal of medical care: all of this is very familiar to genocide scholars.

Remember when you censored Judith Butler for calling the gender-critical movement fascist? Or when you ran an editorial both sides-ing gender identity reform? Or when you quoted a transphobic hate group as a neutral source? Or when you basically republished one of their press releases verbatim?

None of us who watched as the BBC tried to explain away as normal Boris Johnson's attempted Parliamentary coup in 2019 will be remotely surprised at its unprincipled attacks on a minoritised group and any Judge who has the temerity to find it has rights under the Equality Act.
I see the BBC confronted with the reality of a decision incompatible with both (1) what it told its audience the Tribunal had decided and (2) its strongly transphobic editorial line, is now participating in a highly partial and baseless smearing of the Tribunal www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

It has been pretty clear for a long time now that Streeting has zero interest in science, or care for that matter. His actions since becoming Minister for Health have already caused significant harm for some.

Every "fear" and "reasonable concern" expressed by the anti-trans movement is exposed as simple cloaks for intolerance and hatred by the fact we are surrounded by countries who have accepted trans people without their fear mongering becoming real
It has been six years since the Gender Autonomy Act was passed in Iceland. In those six years, none of the usual fears that anti-trans advocates warn against have manifested - and trans people, non-binary people and intersex people have enjoyed increased rights and protections.

![Edinburgh-based trans rights activist Tristan Grayford said that [[Scottish Labour]] politicians appeared to believe that “being transphobic is more important than standing up to racism”.
“I think what we're seeing from Scottish Labour politicians is atrocious behaviour,” he said.
“They're basically attacking our NHS for daring to have any kind of limits on whether or not someone can be unpleasant to a colleague based on transphobia.”
Grayford said the issues extended beyond politicians, telling The National: “Yes, the racism is horrific, but the fact that we as a society, and especially a lot of our media, treat that kind of language to trans people as just normal, as something that should be defended and even promoted, is a horrifying indictment of how normalised transphobia has become in our media in a way that they seem capable of seeing that racism shouldn't be.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:movr4wsu2du5xbmeragyr5cx/bafkreicrub65aaovev7oobk3exjxrnmapghflq4gx7ogfyyezvtsigkvdi@jpeg)
