![Terfipedia infographic: "It's Not About Her Beliefs".
[Image shows a blood-stained actor modelling Reduxx-brand brass knuckles.]
J.K. Rowling promotes and endorses Reduxx, a far right hate site that not only incites violence against the trans community by relentlessly portraying them as predatory pedophiles, but also sells the illegal “brass knuckles” for enacting that violence.
Yet somehow the media sticks to the narrative that she’s just “standing up for women”.
It’s unacceptable, and the richer you make her, the more you enable her. And the more you endorse this too.

The decline is attributable to transphobia in the UK. Bridget Phillipson offers *not one single solitary suggestion* to tackle that. And that would be because she is a transphobe.
Response of our Equalities Minister (email reply) to the news of UK crashing to 22nd on the ILGA rainbow index *because of the Supreme Court ruling*.
They clearly don’t have an answer—just deflection to their LGBT work abroad.
Let’s keep pushing on this point. It’s going to be making them squirm.

This ban has broken my daughter in a way I didn’t think she could break. The pain and sorrow she felt at the end of her last game was soul destroying to witness.

Pleased to read yet another scientific paper pointing out how weak is the Cass 'Review'. But what's happening to trans people is about politics. And a choice made in politics won't be unmade with science.
Just out! Our peer-reviewed critique of the Cass Review has been published by BMC Medical Research Methodology. Please read and share. We show that the Cass Review is fatally flawed and should not be the basis for policy or practice in transgender healthcare.

It turns out that starving kids, freezing pensioners, attacking the disabled, the biggest rollback of LGBTQ+ rights since section 28, genocide and telling everyone to the left of Wes Streeting to fuck off isn't a great vote winning strategy.
