One of Maya Forstater's lawyers, @peter_daly, on @amnesty , the @fawcettsociety, the organised Trade Union movement, the political parties: "All have ignored these women, or been positively hostile"
"Amnesty Ireland went furthest of all by putting its name to a statement calling for people with Gender Critical beliefs to be “denied legitimate political representation”. Even typing that sentence feels implausible."
Maya Forstater's lawyer says in the light of today's judgment, @theSNP need to review their proposed hate crime legislation, and national police forces need to stand down from thought policing.
Maya Forstater's lawyer says that in the light of today's judgment, the Office for National Statistics @ONS need to review fundamental priniciples, social media needs to stop censoring gender-critical views, and education authorities need to stop indoctrinating children.
Maya Forstater's lawyer says that in the light of today's judgment, the right of lesbians, gay men, and bisexual people to affirm their sexuality as being sex-based is protected.
"For Gender Critical gays & lesbians, the insistence of homosexuality as same-gender attraction can be seen as unvarnished, base homophobia of the type that even five years ago was thought defeated, except within the most reactionary and bigoted corners of society."
Maya Forstater's lawyer says today's judgment upholds the right of LGB people to organize:
"There is an urgent need now to question the wisdom of grouping all LGBT people together as a homogenous single group, classified and defined solely by reference to Gender Theory."
Maya Forstater's lawyer says today's judgment means organizations need to question their performative waving of novelty Pride flags.
"There is no sense at all in adopting exclusionary iconography in the name of inclusion."
There are many other excellent points raised in @peter_daly's commentary to today's judgment in the Maya Forstater case.
"Policies which demand the mandatory insertion of pronouns in email footers... may be evidence of the hostile environment described at s.26(1)(b) Equality Act 2010..."
So.
@FiLiA_charity has some serious explaining to do.
How did they select fanatically antisemitic Sathi Patel for a panel, when she celebrated October 7, says "I love Hamas", and wants 6 million Jews gone? Oh, and India too.
@FiLiA_charity Her colleague at "Total Woman Victory" and fellow Hamas fangirl Pardis Dianatnejad aka Isa, confirms that @FiLiA_charity invited them BECAUSE they are pro-Palestine.
"They knew exactly who we were and what we stand for."
@FiLiA_charity Here they are, Sathi Patel and Pardis Dianatnejad, all sweet smiles. Who would ever guess at the murderous Jew-hating blood lust in their souls?
Ok I THINK I finally figured out which female runners were excluded from women's events in the @Paralympics to make way for 50-year-old male usurper Fabrizio "Valentina" Petrillo.
200m: Melani Bergés Gámez, 34, Spain
400m: Lorraine Gomes de Aguiar, 27, Brazil
Explanation 🧵
@Paralympics This is NOT official and is purely based on my reading of the Official Results Book of the 2023 Paris Para Athletics World Championships, which was the qualifying event for the 2024 Paris Paralympics, so take however many grains of salt you need.
@Paralympics The athletics category is the women's T12, which is for vision-impaired runners.
Women's 200m, results start at page 232 of the pdf document. 15 runners in 4 heats, 14 female, one male.
First thing to note: All the women run with guides, but Mr. Petrillo does not.
I'm blocked by Reem Alsalem, the UN Special Rapporteur on Violence against Women, for a tweet saying it was shameful that she hadn't yet said a word about the violence against women committed by Hamas on October 7.
If she hadn't blocked me, I would have invited Reem Alsalem (@UNSRVAW) to listen to this and see whether she stands by her opinion that reports of mass atrocities committed by Hamas might be disinformation.
On November 20, Reem Alsalem (@UNSRVAW) made a statement at the UN.
She said:
1) Israel is committing torture and genocide against Palestinians 2) On October 7, sexual violence may or may not occurred against Israelis. AND PALESTINIANS (⁉️)
Germany was all set to adopt its self-ID law, but thanks to women's campaigning, the minister of Justice has had a belated realization that this would abolish women's rights to single-sex spaces, and so for now it's on hold.
Minister @MarcoBuschmann's reasoning is bizarre & vague however.
He says for example a woman running a women-only sauna should be able to protect the privacy of her customers by deciding on the basis of someone's "external appearance".
Because he doesn't want to say "male sex".
@MarcoBuschmann He says the self-ID law should not force business owners running single-sex services into a situation where women would sue them for breach of the German equality law.
NOW they're thinking about it.
(This law was supposed to have been adopted a while ago)
The @guardian serves up some more lies today in a puff piece on male Thai media tycoon and trans lobbyist J. Jakraputhatip, who they say is "the first woman to own the Miss Universe Organization."
Meanwhile, the Russian political opposition in exile abroad is falling all over itself in invective and rage at EU countries, especially Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Finland, for not having taken in a quarter of a million Russian men of military age.
Fine opposition there.
This fine Russian liberal uses the trolley problem to draw the conclusion that the Lithuanian minister of foreign affairs @GLandsbergis is responsible for the deaths of Russian men mobilized by Putin.
Disgusting.
@GLandsbergis Scratch the surface, there's the same old Russian imperialism:
Countries formerly occupied by Russia:
a) must place Russian interests above their own
b) owe Russians salvation
c) must do as Russians say
d) are to blame for Russia's crimes
