La milliardaire JK Rowling a décidé que cette période était idéale pour enfin assumer ouvertement son hostilité aux personnes trans. Ne vous laissez pas avoir par son "respect" affiché, c'est la même sorte de respect que celle revendiqué par les manifestantEs contre la PMA.
[TW viol] JK Rowling, empathique envers les personnes trans ? Dans son roman Le Vers à soie, publié en 2014, le protagoniste menace une femme trans de la dénoncer à la police en sous-entendant qu'elle serait emprisonnée avec des hommes et violée.

Au Royaume-Uni, un projet de réforme du Gender Recognition Act, loi permettant aux personnes trans de changer le sexe sur leur acte de naissance, a provoqué un mouvement transphobe sans précédent. Il se revendique "critique du genre" (gender critical) sous couvert de féminisme.

The police resemble its heavily armed military. Between 1998 and 2014 the value of military hardware given to U.S. police ballooned from $9.4 million to $796.8 million, with police departments equipped with machines appropriate only for a battlefield.

At 2 a.m. last night I woke up to the sound of cars crashing, flash bangs, & rubber bullets being shot...

The first thing I see when I open my eyes is cops in full riot gear shining flashlights through my window.

They went from window to window trying to see inside my apartment
I was very freaked out, so I dropped to the floor as fast as I could.

I started army crawling to my front window to see what was happening...

In my front yard there is a black SUV with no license plate.

I hear cops screaming. I hear some sort of confrontation.
I’d seen reports all day of white supremacists in a black SUV with no license plate.

So I’m thinking, “there are white supremacists and cops having a stand off in my front yard”

They take responsibility, you don't need to take their credit to blame cartels and white nationalist

My neighbors & I protected our home @MidtownGlobal bldg for 4+ hrs tonight as nearly every building around us fell. We stopped 5 attempts to breach & deterred more I’m sure. I ended up aiming a community fire hose brought in lieu of the fire dept. We stepped up when govt didn’t
I saw wanton destruction of property. Heard dozens of gunshots close to me. All by people who didn’t even know what neighborhood they were in. For most, it was sport. Kids from the suburbs and exurbs (multiple WI plates), some opportunistic looters, and middle aged people too
Frankly, by the time the national guard rolled in we had protection under control ourselves and most people had left. I’m glad the Fire Dept is working on the fires now, many of which have been burning for hours. Most buildings around me will have to be torn down

The official criminal complaint against former Officer Chauvin offers new, disturbing details about the behavior of the officers who killed George Floyd.

Read: documentcloud.org/documents/6933… Image
According to the complaint, Mr. Floyd stopped breathing at 8:25 into the video, at which point officers checked for a pulse & didn't find one--yet Chauvin continued driving his knee into Mr. Floyd's neck for an outrageous 3 additional minutes, essentially ensuring his death. Image
If there is one thing we agree with this administration on, it is that "Americans are entitled to fairness and transparency." As such, we demand a full, transparent investigation into Mr. Floyd's murder where no stone is left unturned.

Always value lives over property.

Always value justice over “keeping the peace.”

Always remember the police killed a Black man called #GeorgeFloyd and thought they could get away with it.

Nobody in the world, nobody in history, has ever gotten their freedom by appealing to the moral sense of the people who were oppressing them.
