Too often, we throw around the term “historic” too easily. But there are certain moments in time when you are in a certain place, with certain people talking about grand things. And the electricity is almost visible in the air and the conversation. 1/3 @MBMetis_MMF @MNC_tweets
I’m not saying for certain that this weekend’s joint cabinet summit of @MBMetis_MMF and MN-S will go down in history but I believe it might. Something new is happening and it just might be what our Nation needs. Only time will tell. 2/3 @MNC_tweets
The Regina Declaration of our two #Métis Governments just laid the foundation. 3/3 @MBMetis_MMF @MNC_tweets #ReginaDeclaration

So, I've waded through the Evangelical Alliance's new pastoral "guidelines" for interacting with trans people (ughh, the things I do to expose #transphobic #ciswits to the world), and let's just say it's time to tear this particular sh*t-bag a new hole.

So, straight off the bat, first page of text, the use of #language is . . . well, yeah, see for yourself:

"It is important to remember that transgender is not simply an issue to be debated;" - p5, #Transformed

*sigh*

When such language gets reinforced by insisting...

At my speech at Brandeis (sponsored by @CAMERAonCampus), there was a student from Saudi Arabia who said to me that before he came to Brandeis, he had no idea that Israel gives Arab citizens the right to vote & equal rights under law, unlike other minorities in the Middle East
He was very interested in the Joint List and their Palestinian solidarity from within the Knesset, which is so different from the politics Saudi Arabia and the Middle East in general.
It’s moments like this that I really love speaking on campuses and opening people’s eyes to things they didn’t know about Israel.

So.

Time for something a little different, and an idea I’ve been toying with—a look at how #transphobes try to frame their narrative within a claim that they are only “concerned” about trans people existing.

I think it’s safe to say that every trans person in the...

community who isn’t a #transphobic arserag can now spot whenever the usual #hate groups and individuals deploy their dog-whistles to denigrate trans people, especially trans women, but it is all too easy to forget that for the average cis person with no experience of...

this the comments and phrases that #transphobes come out with can come across as bizarre, or non-sequiturs, or even occasionally even reasonable. That person, because they have no experience of this, doesn’t see those comments as the attacks they are, and so can’t...

Thread: I know antivax when I see it. I've been fighting antivaccine misinformation for nearly two decades. Your "roundtable" was all antivax. Rep. Noble might not have said anything antivax, but he didn't say anything much pro-vax, either, and his bills pander to antivaxers. 1/@
I realize that you probably didn't read my whole post; so I'll include a link again. I explain why what your panelists were claiming was BS and antivax, although you might have to click the links in the post to see specific antivaccine tropes explained. 2/ respectfulinsolence.com/2018/08/03/jef…
For instance, there was the "toxins" gambit, in which vaccines were portrayed as having all sorts of poisons in them, like formaldehyde. Yes, there are scary-sounding chemicals in vaccines, but they'rre present in amounts too small to cause harm. 3/ respectfulinsolence.com/2009/05/15/jen…

LRT is a little glib, but if you lurk an "incel" forum long enough, you'll notice that these guys whose identity revolves around "can't get laid" do, from time to time, reject a woman's advances, in real life or in theory.
The man-o-sphere believes in (highly racist, we should point out) an objective scale of attractiveness and believes, absent deformation by feminism, it's just math. If you're a dude who's a 4, you should be able to wind up with a 4, and can bang 3s and below at will.
And of course fatness is a huge part of that, and their idea of thin/normal is highly informed (deformed) by porn and the more pornified aspects of Hollywood and other pop culture forces.
