1./ Naomi Wolf's latest outburst raises a simple question. Do you HAVE to be barking to believe in Self-ID? After all, she's a noted champion of the idea any man who says he's a woman must be believed. She's also currently baking anti-vaxx fruitcake on social media.👇
2./ Her lunatic anti-vaxx claims are fuelled by rumour and her own deep misunderstanding of science. She's even claimed the vaccines insert code into people's bodies that can be updated (inside them) and this is linked to time travel. They don't and they're not.🤦‍♂️
3./ Yet it was ONLY 3 months ago this same woman was lauded as a rational expert by those kindergarten rejects Pink News who love to attack lesbians like @BluskyeAllison or @bindelj but seem to have a soft spot for a straight woman with FABULOUS hair and a head full of idiocy.👇
4./ For years she's been held up as an example by the army of Self-ID proponents. Here's her being described as "an inspiration to so many people", by @echrso an academic who defends restricting the free expression of people critical of Self-ID. She applauds his courage.👇
5./ Naomi was also lauded by other champions of gender Self-ID like self-proclaimed inventor of all gay rights ever @PeterTatchell who, like her, regularly calls @ALLIANCELGB a hate group and criticises UK feminists as "transphobic" when they're merely defending women.👇
6./ Of course Self-ID isn't the only fruity idea HE's supported. In a letter to the Guardian he insisted "the positive nature of some child-adult sexual relationships is not confined to non-Western cultures". He's since claimed he didn't mean what it seemed his own words meant.👇
7./ When @ALLIANCELGB pointed out thousands of lesbians and gays felt existing LGBTQ+ organisations didn't represent us @naomirwolf accused us of being "a Koch brothers-funded anti-trans group"; a claim based on as much evidence as her vaccines claims; ie none at all. 👇
8./ That won Naomi backing from that elephantine ego and @ALLIANCELGB obsessive @MrJohnNicolson an MP who took a leaf out of her book when he recently concocted his own conspiracy theory claiming we were part of a secret global plot to take over the SNP. 😂
9./ His evidence was cooked up by fellow Naomi fanboy, the soap actor who offered nude pics to people who lent support to gender recognition reform. It goes without saying Naomi's stance was applauded by a certain lawyer who dressed up in his wife's kimono to bludgeon a fox.
10./ He's now trying to reverse a High Court decision on puberty blocker drugs though what he knows about science could be etched on what's left of that poor fox's pulverised brain. For example, he ridiculed researchers testing the drugs on animals.👇
11./ Yep, despite the fact puberty blockers were discovered by research on animals. It's tempting to conclude there's a pattern here: that Self-ID is such a mad idea it attracts supporters who'd feel quite at home at a certain tea party. But there's much more to it than that.
12./ It's not madness that made @NicolaSturgeon rant recently about "transphobia". Instead Self-ID has been turned into a useful tool against rivals as she fights off claims she conspired to have a political opponent jailed. Self-ID has been weaponised.👇
13./ That's not unusual. In Malta, that small nation that pioneered Self-ID (much lauded by Sturgeon) the cover-up continues by a regime that both introduced Self-ID and is alleged to be involved in the assassination of journalist Daphne Galizia.👇 timesofmalta.com/articles/view/…
14./ Before her car-bomb murder Galizia accused leading Labour figures of introducing Self-ID of Gender as a progressive whitewash of their larceny and gangsterism. Watch @johnsweeneyroar 's fantastic interview with ex Malta PM and see if you disagree.👇 facebook.com/watch/?v=10156…
15./ Shameless politicians, commercial organisations, drug-pushers and lobby groups rationally calculate how to use Self-ID to advance their careers, political positions and financial resources. That's why they were happy to overlook Naomi Wolf's long record of delusions.
16./ Some of the gender identity proponents who lined up with Naomi only weeks ago may try to claim her mad vaxx claims are a blip. But that won't wash. For months our side has been pointing out she has a long track record of making ridiculous claims. 👇
17./ Remember her latest book? Pulped by her US publisher because it was shot through with factual innacuracy. She'd claimed the British state executed men for having sex with other men all through the 19th Century. But it hadn't👇nytimes.com/2019/06/05/boo…
18./ Her litany of baloney included the US military importing Ebola to spread it at home, Edward Snowden being a US plant and the power of the mind being able to overcome contraception or correct serious childbirth complications. Did any of those put off LGBTQ+ lobbyists? Nope.
19./ The gender identity movement held up Naomi as an exemplar not because they're mad (or not all of them) but because they are now unable to distinguish fact from crazy fiction. What's worse is they don't care. They saw Naomi as their perfect mascot. Now she really is.
1b./ Some of Naomi's latest madness has been taken down. Here's another. 👇

1./ Is Scotland a one party state? Not according to @MrJohnNicolson. Really? A leader accused of illegally trying to jail a political opponent? TICK. Her partner running the governing party? TICK. Hundreds of lobbyists funded to applaud her policies as an echo-chamber?. TICK. 👇
2./ Organised trolling of journalists who dare to question her (such as Marr)? TICK. Bullying pickets outside broadcasters? TICK. Top prosecutors accused of doing her bidding and being corrupt? TICK. A booming personality cult? TICK. Remember this lovely birthday tribute? 🤢👇
3./ Dodgy cover-ups like the Nike outbreak and care home deaths? TICK. Unconvincing reports cobbled together to exonerate her? TICK. Democratic structures of her party (the NEC) stuffed with unelected reps? TICK. Laws proposed to silence opponents such as a Hate Crime Bill? TICK.

1./ It's Linehan as we've never seen her. I'm so impressed tho not aroused (probably cos I'm not a lesbian). Apparently some peeps who're every bit as biologically male as Gigi (as we now call her) are offended by her inclusion on lesbian dating sites. Can't we all be kind?
👇👇
2./ There just isn't enough inclusion and diversity in the world; tho things are definitely looking up now that Chiyo Gomez is competing for Mr Gay England. He says he wants to prove gay men can have a vagina and periods too. So bold. So brave. 👇attitude.co.uk/article/mr-gay…
3./ There's no news yet whether Linehan has taken any more hormones than that fabulous icon of womanhood Alex Drummond, ie none at all. Alex...is the Stonewall trans advisor who went into schools to clarify to kids exactly what a lesbian is. So bold. So brave.👇

1./ The vaccine hypocrisy of G7 leaders is breathtaking. They make it sound like they care SO very much about deaths in the developing world. Actually, their priority is about eradicating COVID globally in order to protect us; their own citizens. theguardian.com/world/2021/feb…
2./ That's understandable. The downside is they're asking African and other leaders to mount national vaccination campaigns (with all the effort that entails) when those nations have much more pressing health concerns of their own; like neo-natal deaths.👇 who.int/news-room/fact…
3./ 7000 new born babies die EVERY DAY across the world and EVERY YEAR 2.1M children die in the first month of life; almost as many people as have died from COVID so far globally. 5% of deaths in Africa are from HIV, another 5% from malaria, both entirely preventable.

1./ @OzKaterji appears to be running a masterclass in narcissism. If you hadn't heard of him (I confess I hadn't) then he's the mouthy bloke that just smacked down a polite request from two lesbians who've spent much of their life fighting for LGB rights with abusive comments. 👇
2./ Now he's having a meltdown and anyone who accuses him of homophobia is threatened with legal action. But as a gay man I ask myself who really says to two lesbians, "fuck you and fuck you forever" and "I despise you". The idea that this is normal behaviour is absurd. 👇 Image
3./ Scour through the comments of @ALLIANCELGB and you'll fail to find anything remotely abusive. That's why Oz has to dredge up a tweet from a founder from before the organisation began (Oct 2019) that defended feminists who decide to engage with the Right. But here's the thing. Image

1./ If you've finished 'Call My Agent' and need more laughs in your life here's some comedy. @pinknews that parody of a news site is trying to police who speaks for gays as it denounces (yet again) a prominent woman. This time it's @KemiBadenoch who dared to meet @ALLIANCELGB👇
2./ The headline is surely a joke itself since the "secret meeting" was listed on a government website. Not as much of a joke though as the fact @openDemocracy who "broke" the story list 3 writers for what must have been a 5 minute use of a search engine.👇opendemocracy.net/en/5050/uk-equ…
3./ As you'd expect P News lift it word for word and then sprinkle some of their own froth on it plus anything else @MrJohnNicolson has invented during an evening's convivial tweeting. Since John and PN are both serial fantasists here's the truth (again).👇

1./ A thread on bad science and medicine gone mad. One of the parties in the appeal against the High Court ruling on puberty blockers is @TheEndoSociety a US-based lobby group for doctors who prescribe hormones. So why might THEY be involved?👇endocrine.org/advocacy
2./ The Society was founded as the Association for the Study of Internal Secretions by a medical conman Dr Henry Harrower in 1916 to promote gland extracts he claimed could cure almost any disease. Any resemblance to today is strictly coincidental.👇 acpjournals.org/doi/abs/10.732…
3./ In an article in 2013 the co-author of the Society's Transgender Guidelines reflected on how important was the Society's adoption. "There was an attitudinal shift to be able to say the Endocrine Society supports this." It would be milked mercilessly. endocrinenews.endocrine.org/blocking-puber…
