1./ A brief personal view on the uplifting launch meeting of #LGBAlliance last week. If you listened to @OwenJones84 & @patrickharvie you'd think the new group was some reactionary outfit funded by the American Christian Right. But then who expects consistency from..
2./ Owen on gay rights? He's managed to be the organ grinder's monkey for years, banging his little drum for Corbyn through thick and thin, a leader who likes to share platforms with the homophobes of Hamas and spoke..
3./ ...approvingly of the regime in Teheran (the one that hangs gay men from cranes). And who expects consistency from woke-blokes like these that rail against uber-capitalism but are cool with the sainted Stonewall they defended last week being funded..
4./ ..by the 'Great Vampire Squid' as it was dubbed, Goldman Sachs. Here's Stonewall and that famous socialist Goldman's CEO Lloyd Blankfein jerking each other off with excitement about their common agenda. stonewall.org.uk/system/files/g…
5./ Just because the Christian Right have their own & different objections to gender ideology no more means #LGBAlliance is funded by them than fact Iran avidly promotes sex change operations means Stonewall or @scotgp are being funded by the Ayatollahs. And anyway..
6./ it's Stonewall and them that are actually promoting spooky semi-religious ideas. Stonewall's ragbag of gender campaigns are only logically consistent if you buy into the notion that the true essence of a person is some latter day 'spirit' or 'soul'..
7./ If your body and brain isn't sexed the way 'you' are...then the true 'you' must be some sort of non-material essence that isn't rooted in the physical world. Most gender critical peeps have no objection to people believing this sort of unscientific, pseudo-religious stuff..
8./ Our objection comes to it being inculcated in primary age school kids, and force-fed to cops, fire fighters and NHS workers as part of a new world view developed and promoted by Stonewall and the trans lobby. We object..
9./ to this not because we are transphobic (we are not). There were transgender members and speakers at the launch meeting whom I admire and respect. No, most of us object because this new semi-religious gospel of 'gender' has dangerous consequences especially for women and..
10./ ...children. When the NHS rewrote the official guidance on single sex wards to allow any man who says he is a woman to be cared for in what was a safe women's space it was another signal that trans demands could put women...
11./ ...in physical danger. In schools the 'No Outsiders' classes championed by the likes of Stonewall are not teaching tolerance and mutual respect. They are a narrow ideological tool that aim deliberately to create gender confusion among thousands of kids who would...
12./ ...either have grown up gay or if straight just been facing the usual challenges, discomforts and stresses of childhood and puberty. It's obviously not sensible or progressive to promote to kids the idea they can become more "authentic" by taking powerful hormones..
13./ for the rest of their lives or altering their bodies with profoundly invasive surgery. As a society we quite rightly worry about girls self-harming. Yet Stonewall actively encourages kids to look forward to the day when they too can surgically remove their breasts.
14./ No if you're looking for a hate group...it's not #LGBAlliance They aim to protect and defend the rights of lesbians, gays and bisexuals. Is that so hateful? Are they not allowed to do that now? In a world where gay men are still hung from cranes..
15./ ..not for being trans but for being gay...is it so offensive to speak up for our rights? Stonewall's new gender orthodoxy undermines whole idea of being lesbian or gay. After all, what can it mean to be attracted to a particular sex if the category of 'sex' has been...
16./ disinvented. Stonewall, Mermaid and the litany of other well-funded pro-trans-demands organisations undermine not just LBG rights, but those of most of our fellow citizens. The irony is that #LGBAlliance may become the first lesbian and gay organisation also to..
17./ ..stand up properly for the rights of straight people too. One reason so many straight people have been anxious not to call out weird gender nonsense is that they feared...the dreaded 'H' word, and being denounced as...homophobes. If nothing else #LGBAlliance may help ...
18./ ..these progressive straight people to speak out. It isn't homophobic to call out this nonsense. It isn't homophobic to worry about gender garbage being force-fed to your kids. It isn't homophobic to want single sex wards, or as a woman to want to be able to go to a loo ..
19./ ...that isn't frequented by guys who may have decided just yesterday and on a whim that they are a laydee. It's not homophobic to question alphabet soup propaganda if you're a cop or a firefighter and your boss is winning brownie points from politicians by making you sign up
20./ to it. If you smell something distinctly strange as a parent, NHS worker or feminist who works at a Rape Crisis Centre when gender idiocy is being imposed your sense of ...smell is not faulty. Stonewall does not speak in our name. And it is not homophobic to oppose them.
21./ If you're looking for real homophobia check out a journalist called Owen Jones. It's revealing that first #LGBAlliance peep he felt need to slap down was a black lesbian feminist lawyer, the brave @BluskyeAllison Punk News is now busy trying to get her fired.
22./ What drives Jones, Harvie and fellow gender extremists to react with such bullying anger? Perhaps they fear there's something in the air. Their entitled antennae can feel those first indistinct tremors in the atmosphere that signal an earthquake is coming. They're right.
