Saw an uncredited post on fb that got eaten by a refresh saying that JK shouldn't be categorized as simply a problematic artist. That she's more like Musk: a radicalized person with extreme wealth using said wealth to influence the government to target and harm a marginalized group. Helpful framing.

When I went to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Bethlehem, I had a conversation with one of the Armenian patriarchs of the church about this. He said that when he goes to Israeli parts of Jerusalem and some people see him in his garbs, he gets spat at in the street.

It’s in part why I left academia, despite having tenure. And the racism wasn’t just from other colleagues or the admin—it was also from the students. Constant microaggressions.
When professors experience racism (sexism, homophobia, transphobia, etc) at work, that’s part of their service load. It takes work to deal with that and still come back and do your job. That’s service to the department. It’s deeply unfair service. But it is service.

The Gist: Trans rights are Data rights
A UK court has made a decision defining genders which has put it at odds with a less noticed, more important, decision from the CJEU. This is the Gist.

Have deleted some posts but as a general point of principle: trans people in general, not limited to those engaged in civil rights activism, have legal rights even if they do something that's morally wrong.

This is evil and awful and trans people everywhere deserve better than what's happening right now.
And I think it's impossible to overtstate the pivotal role that JK Rowling played in mainstreaming hateful and false ideas about trans people. Every dollar you give her goes toward efforts like this.

The U.K. Supreme Court rules that Britain's equalities law defines a woman as someone born biologically female. The ruling means a transgender person with a certificate that recognizes them as female should not be considered a woman for equality purposes.
