And another @CGDev employee comes along to provide tangible evidence that her organization does indeed discriminate against people who hold the protected belief that sex is immutable.

I'm sure Maya's lawyers will know what to do with this.
Co-Director of @CGDEV's Europe Programme retweets evidence that her organization discriminates against people on the basis of their beliefs.
With @MForstater's picture so prominently displayed, it's clear this is targeted mobbing by admin & staff of @CGDEV.

Good for Maya's case.
And here comes @CGDev's assistant director with no hesitation in signing this letter proving that she and her 86 colleagues are mobbing Maya Forstater, creating a toxic work environment and discriminating against people with the protected belief that sex exists.
@CGDev Another @CGDev employee joins the mob.

Are CGDev's lawyers asleep? This is almost hilarious.
Looking forward to Maya Forstater's hefty compensation package for CGDev's discrimination on the basis of a lawfully protected belief ruled worthy of respect in a democratic society.
@CGDev A @CGDev fellow retweets, producing more self-incriminating evidence of CGDev-associated people creating a hostile environment for people who believe that sex matters.
A person working on gender research and policy for @CGDev joins the mob of CGDev's staff members against Maya Forstater, proving they create a hostile environment for people who believe that women are of the female sex.
This mobbing has a chilling effect.

Imagine you're a woman who wants to work in development, & you believe that sex matters, that girls & women are female, that they have rights that need to be upheld...

...and you see these people would want you fired. Would you even apply?
The chilling effect goes far beyond Maya's former employer.

This is the saddest retweet:

@MalalaFund director @LuceFry thinks people should be fired for believing that women and girls are female. Not sure @Malala would agree. (She was shot by the Taliban for being female)
@MalalaFund @LuceFry @Malala The process is 🤡 as well:

1. 87 @CGDev employees urge their employer to appeal AFTER CGD had decided not to.
2. They loudly tout their letter on social media, but don't publish it.
3. They show it to Pink News which quotes & paraphrases it as an "open letter" (it isn't).
The letter of the 87 @CGDev employees is defamatory, as it implies that Maya is "transphobic".

CGD president Masood Ahmed & executive VP Amanda Glassman were "grateful to receive it" & say it's "in the best spirit of CGD’s culture."

Hoo boy, prepare that compensation package.
Maya's lawyers with the best response 😂😂😂:

pinknews.co.uk/2021/06/30/may…
Oh & btw, Susannah Hares of the @CGDev mob who would want Maya fired for saying sex is immutable and often matters - for example for single-sex toilets for girls - says single-sex toilets matter for girls ...

Cognitive dissonance all the way down.

cgdev.org/blog/introduci…
@CGDev Wow this is some next-level toxicity:

The demand to continue crushing @MForstater to punish her for her belief that sex exists and cannot be changed (a belief protected by law) is this @CGDev's staff member's PINNED TWEET.
Also:

If any think tank came to me and said yup top points for reproductive health goes to China, and top points for CHILD SAFETY go to SYRIA, I would no longer give them a single penny of my money probably ever again.

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.

Trans activists are furious.

zeit.de/politik/deutsc…
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."

Oh and also, he was born "in the wrong body".

theguardian.com/world/2023/jan… Image
@guardian "Miss Universe was owned by a succession of men and now it's owned by a WOMAN!"

Nope, @rebeccarat, the line of male ownership is still unbroken.

If all the world's male CEOs and politicians declared themselves "trans women", what a breakthrough for women that would be!

Right?
@guardian @rebeccarat In a previous piece on Jakrajutatip*, the Guardian specifies that he went to an all-boy's school.

Again, a man in an all-male environment fantasizes that he's a woman. Seems to be a pattern.

*misspelled his name in 1st tweet, sorry

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

I always thought the revolts in Russia would start in the Caucasus, and here they are. Smart & well-informed women in Daghestan tell the police trying to draft the men for Putin's insane war: "It's Russia that attacked Ukraine! No to war!"

Women fighting policemen against Putin's military mobilization in Makhachkala, capital of Daghestan.

Police reinforcements arrive in Makhachkala. The crowd shouts "Shame! Shame! Shame!"

Videos of mobilized men from various parts of Russia.
An ragtag army of drunkards against the battle-hardened forces of Ukraine.
Some more Russian drunkards mobilized to conquer Ukraine. One is too drunk to even pull up his trousers. Wonder how he'll manage with a kalashnikov.

Drunken goodbye party for mostly ethnic Kazakhs from the Volgograd region, being sent off by Putin to kill and die for him. Though they look like they believe they're off on a picnic.

Russian vox pop:

1. Russia has to win so Ukrainians can live more peacefully and our boys can come home.
2. Ukraine will be a second-rate state. And we'll take that land back.
3. We're apolitical. All that matters is everyone should live well, both here and over there.
Russian vox pop 2/

4. We're going to kick out that Nazi carrion. We didn't finish them off in WWII, so we'll finish them off now.
5. We'll take all those poor [Ukrainian] citizens under our wing, and all will be well. I think Putin will create better living conditions for them.
Russian vox pop 3/

6. No idea. Victory for Russia.
7. Ukraine has to be wiped off the face of the earth. Who needs it anyway? And Poland next.
