Jesse Singal is a liar and a fraud of a journalist and I will prove it as an unassailable fact in this thread.

I'll also talk about why I don't think BlueSky moderation will do anything about him afterwards so stick around or maybe just skip to that if you don't want to read the boring details.

Surely the EHRC can see how INSANE this sounds?

Right!? 😬

“Under the new guidance, places…will be able to question transgender women over whether they should be using single-sex services based on how they look, their behaviour or concerns raised by others”

What happens if the end goal of your wacko movement is “And then the public will rise up to support us” but the public remains indifferent, no matter how thickly TV and radio are blanketed in your drivel? This is what happens, if you have a squillionaire friend who can put her thumb on the scales.

Would the the conveyor belt of squillionaire-funded vexatious litigation or the participation of the national equality body lobbying government be necessary, if the matter was clear cut and resolved in the minds of the public? No, obviously it would not be necessary. Which tells us things.

Again, it is not like nobody noticed what the anti-trans wackos are or said publicly that they are vicious bigots driven by malice. That’s exactly why they swiftly became the cause celebre of every fascist crackpot in the world.

Of course, the only way to get around the problem the national equality body has identified - you can’t tell, just by looking at people - could most efficiently be resolved by legally compelling the targeted minority group to wear an identifying badge of some kind.

The core aim of the Terf movement - a tiny number of newspaper columnists who melted the brains of middle aged reactionaries - was always to encourage maximum public hostility against transgender people, and give them the impunity to act upon it.

Something I remind myself of about the trans rights fight is the asymmetry of what's required to change someone's mind:

Transphobes: A decade-long, billion dollar, globally coordinated campaign of disinformation, lawfare, and media capture.

Trans people: Meeting a trans person.

We'll win, folx 🏳️‍⚧️✊

A country that tries to regulate gender expression is totalitarian.

Ironically, totalitarianism being one of the things that is not allowed to be a protected belief.

Tldr. yes it's going to be illegal for you to piss soon if you're trans, basically.

not criminal illegal. civil illegal. it only becomes a criminal illegal if you for eg refuse to leave when asked because then it becomes trespass etc. An important thing to know in the coming months, I assume.

and like... bigots made it no secret what they were actively pursuing this whole time.

It could have been stopped dead in its tracks. Instead they flourished under a tory government and faced no resistance whatsoever under a Labour government.

thus, here we are.

and it will be a human rights scandal and a source of great embarrassment for the UK on the international stage.

But short of changing legislation, that is what is going to happen pretty imminently. Govt and EHRC can only delay for so long.

the thing is that the EHRC and Govt are shit out of luck (after several years of actively supporting bigots campaigning for exactly this)

The SC made a ruling and now they have to implement guidance and policy based on it. There is absolutely no way to do this that doesn't fuck trans people over.
The UK is considering a policy that would effectively segregate trans people from society. It would bar trans people from "single sex spaces" even when they use the facility of their sex assigned at birth.

This is a full on policy of segregation without even the benefit of separate facilities.

so for anyone still not fully caught up:

Tldr the sc ruled that the word woman in the equality act is defined by original birth certs because pregnancy???? this isn't an outright tranny ban but will have big implications eg for workplaces or schools where "single sex" spaces are required by law

Re those leaks to The Times: the High Court will rule soon enough on whether the EHRC has (1) adhered to its statutory duties and (2) understood the law correctly. Until then both (1) and (2) are up for grabs and the statutory guidance is only marginally more useful than yesterday's chip paper.

It's completely unlawful as a matter of Strasbourg law - it shows no regard to the dignity or privacy of trans people - but whether this will detain a Labour Party which has shown itself willing to undermine the human rights of other groups attacked by the Far Right is a moot point.

At least it's honest, right? Intrusive questioning of women who don't conform to norms about how they should look, and women then being banned if they tell their inquisitor to mind his own sodding business, has always been the logical end point for the patriarchal project that is TERFdom.

Those bits of the EHRC's draft statutory guidance that weren't in its now withdrawn interim guidance we haven't challenged yet. But we will. And if the High Court finds the EHRC breached its statutory duties only a bigot or fool would rely on them.

Tomorrow is Trans Day of Remembrance. Every year on TDOR, trans people lost to homicide and violence are remembered at memorials around the country and around the world.

But the story of Sam Nordquist, a young trans man who was tortured and killed this year, has haunted me like no other.
What happened in Room 22?
For a month, seven people held Sam Nordquist captive in a small hotel room, torturing him to death, authorities say. How did it go on in secret?

Hearing her state out loud “the kids who starved had complicated medical histories actually” is a very “Do you hear yourself?” thing and beyond that a case of anyone thinking that reporting had value even on its own stated terms just massively undermines credibility.
Jewish Federations applauds Olivia Reingold, a staff writer at Bari Weiss's Free Press, as she victory laps her (ghoulish and erroneous) reporting that some of the children Israel was starving to death and denying medical aid to in Gaza had pre-existing conditions.

Ben really confuses me. He identified two fundamental flaws immediately, and even verified that the group wasn't going to address the first one. But he refuses to just *say* that and instead frames it as a conspiracy?
