"A special meeting of the party’s ruling state council on Thursday is expected to wave through sweeping changes to the party’s code of conduct, codifying a nine-point definition of transphobia. Plenty of allegations of transgressions are expected to follow."...🧵

As @noeltowell predicts, there will be lots of Greens doing a transphobia if the amendment is passed. Saying trans rights conflict with women's? That's a transphobia! Want restrictions on child transition? Transphobic bigot! Asking questions?!? You're doing a genocide.

We are literally killing our planet every fucking day. “The party has become a hotbed of authoritarianism and members are too afraid to speak in meetings for fear of retribution,” *anon said. “I can’t even remember the last time the state council discussed climate change.”

No comment from @SamanthaRatnam of course. And @AdamBandt declared his hand recently, in favour of "no debate" and misogyny.
The Greens? No longer. The Regressive Pink and Blues.

This is The Haven System, who's so worried about transphobia in the Greens - also a Nazi and paedophile sympathiser.

Here is the current proposal. Note change to (c).

this is bullshit. I'll never forget when Haven casually admitted to having sexually assaulted a girl in high school. He said it like it was youthful mistake that we all make and so we should be sympathetic to all the young rapey men causing optical probs for the Greens... No dude

In 2020, I was suspended from the Greens for vilification of transgender people and bringing the party into disrepute (like how John Setka brought the CFMEU into disrepute; I seriously affected the public opinion of the Greens, even though basically no one has ever heard of me..)

Doing a transphobia #1: calling for safe spaces for women, and differentiating between women and "male-bodied people": theaustralian.com.au/nation/feminis…

Doing a transphobia #2: calling for women's voices to be heard! on matters that affect them! rather than just cede spaces to men!
(Greens position of course is NO DEBATE.)

Doing a transphobia #3: Again, calling for women's spaces; and saying that disagreement is fine and does not create "unsafety".

If that was enough to get me suspended in 2020, what will happen now, with the new amendments to the Greens code of conduct? What will happen to a political party which bans "leading questions"? Watch as the Greens atrophy, shrouded in the sexist baby blue and pink flag.

This is the proposal (page 1) which was sent to State Council to define transphobia and the proposal which was actually passed. It defines all the conduct in (a)-(i) as conduct which harms or creates serious risk of harm to trans people. Like misgendering. Very harmful.

The deranged mind of the Haven System (she/it) then wrote a 7-page Q&A to head off any of your doubts! Most normal people who read this pile of rubbish and want to turf the whole thing. Not the Greens! So let's see what the Greens signed off on...

The Greens are apparently a hot-bed of transphobia. Like, some trans members have even felt *uncomfortable.* Whoa. And if you don't think that transphobia is a problem in the Greens, you are a transphobe. Says a trans identified male, so he knows.

what about free speech?! Well, just like with racist speech, the Greens limit free speech so no diff here. Trans are the new black.

This amendment covers subtle forms of transphobia. Probably most people wouldn't even notice them.

WHAT ABOUT SEGREGATED SPACES? OMG, WIMMS, JUST GET OVER IT ALREADY. Obvs trans are the most oppressed, the only folx who need / deserve their own spaces, away from oppressors. For the normies, that means that men can come into women's spaces, but women don't get women only spaces

Also, "unintentional misgendering is harmful & always unacceptable & should be proscribed in the code of conduct." FYI Haven once said he kissed a girl without her consent but no big deal. But! a person mistakenly misgendering should be sanctioned. But he won't push it for now.

Also some bullshit about actual genders. Genders don't matter mate. Gender is not an axis of oppression. Sex is. You're not oppressed dude. Stop it.

SEX IS A LABEL THAT OVERSIMPLIFIES COMPLEX BIOLOGY INTO MALE/FEMALE.
OMG reality is just SO simplistic at times right? Why do reality when you could do a Butlerian performance? Amirite?
Actually, yes, sex is simple: there are two sexes. That's it.

Conversion practices are abusive indeed. Converting young gay kids or boring kids who are embarrassed for being yt oppressors and so need to queer up into trans or gender-diverse is abusive. Don't transition kids. They can't consent to it.

Giving puberty blockers to children should be outlawed. Greens members should be able to refer to the best evidence in the world, systematic studies from the UK, Sweden, Finland, to challenge the Greens policy. This code of conduct stops policy change. This is a party in failure.

oh dear goddess: no leading questions. The Greens are a political party who have just outlawed "leading questions." So if I were engaging in a contest of ideas in the Greens, I could no longer put forward a proposition which would challenge the listener to share my conclusion?

Will these rules get overapplies? Yes. @VictorianGreens will have a very busy misconduct panel.

Here are some helpful links to the intellectual poverty of the Greens and in opposition to doing a transphobia. Look at the branch meetings listed below and how many people actually attended in order to endorse putting proposal to State Council.

It was then passed by a State Council made up of 15 people. And that's the State of the Greens for ya.

This is what the Haven System is FYI.

I'd say that Sean Mulcahy and Haven are equal most effective trans activists in the Greens.
Haven says he has won the war on women, acknowledging he is a man who wages war on women. Remember he's the Nazi sympathiser who promotes incest and paedophilia. Still in the Greens!
