“I disagree with gender critical people” is being used as justification to do increasingly bad things.
To surround a fellow schoolgirl and swear and spit on her. To don black balaclavas and shove and manhandle women. To intimidate libraries with threats of arson. To target Black
lesbians, their health, income and careers.

To disrupt conferences talking about the lives of women and girls around the world. To deny single sex services to rape survivors. To ensure female prisoners have no protection from male-bodied inmates. To derail abortion campaigns.
To shut down questions about the high rates of girls transitioning.
To avoid questions of pharmaceutical funding, growth markets for PBs, and younger patients as a customer base for life.
And don’t get me started on the early sexualisation of children & the end of safeguarding …
“I disagree with gender critical people” is being used as cover for very bad things, and soon we’re going to have to start calling them what they are: these are crimes.

Society won’t survive unscathed the use of this special get out clause. The worst people are being emboldened
to carry out their very worst excesses.

And we really are going to see that.

Can I ask you to read this report?
I know it’s hard to care about prisoners in the main, but I think we should all care about a prison system used to effectively torture individual prisoners, and disproportionately Black, Asian or working-class prisoners. What’s that about?
We know IPP sentences have been phased out and condemned as inhumane and unjust, but the prison service continues to justify those that remain active, using spurious claims - including some entirely invented charges. What’s that about?
We also know how the trauma of an IPP sentence can induce and exacerbate MH conditions; how uncertainty and isolation can cause prisoners to externalise thought patterns that can then be diagnosed as schizophrenia; and how that can lead to a medication-or-else ultimatum, trapping

If you untether society from material reality, you set it spinning off in directions you can’t control.
What’ll be the result of a law that says anyone can be a man or a woman if they say so?
You either discount your own senses or you discount the law, yes?
Can’t both be right.
If you discount your senses, trust suffers. Relationships suffer. Cohesion suffers. People become embittered against others or themselves.

Truth matters. Personally.

If you discount the law, civics suffers. Cohesion suffers. Society suffers. And there’s a personal cost
to individuals in crime and fear and further hardships.

Truth is *essential to the law. There can be no fairness in society without acknowledging the objective truth, a starting point, without which there’s no possible route to fairness, compromise, progress.

Only conflict.

The entire structure of the Left had been co-opted into gender ideology, so much so that UK Left-wing feminists in opposition were silenced at every level.
Political parties, publications, academia. Even sewing circles.
Left-wing feminists had to organise and crowdfund their own
research and platforms, but still were faced with a well-funded, many-tiered gender machine
bringing together such varied voices as Google, Amazon, the British Army, MI6, Twitter, UK Labour, the SNP, Malta, Lt. Sulu, the DNC, MIT, American Scientific, Gilead Sciences, Experian,
Go Daddy and the Law Society of England and Wales.
Not to mention the many injunctions to no-debate.

Do you know how hard we worked to get our voices heard?

You froze us out of our natural circles, and now you’re accusing us of aligning with your enemies?

They aligned with us.

Interesting. But no.
Systematic patriarchal abuse =/= violence.
Violence is a tool used against transgressive men, but get this,
women were never going to keep to the rules anyway, because BIOLOGY.
It’s why sex-selective abortions are out of control in certain societies.
If you’re going to be born female, you’re going to be born WRONG.
Please understand.
The system of patriarchy doesn’t need you to be born male, it needs you to become compliant. That is why it punishes gay men. Not because it doesn’t like gay sex, but because it doesn’t like the
idea of a man who might let the side down and not enforce control over a woman.
That’s why it prefers it’s gay men to trans themselves out of manhood and into compliant, stereotype-embracing transwomanhood. Iran shows you the way.
When you condemn women fighting the patriarchy as

“The Ministry of Justice … are committed to advancing equality, eliminating discrimination, harassment and victimisation …”

Women prisoners are victimised by a system that validates the feelings of male sex offenders over their safety.
Legislated discrimination.
State torture
of women who may already have suffered at the hands of abusive males.
How is this fair?
Whose equality is advanced?
Not society at large, who now have to reconcile the extended suffering of incarcerated women with a just punishment for, say, shoplifting.
Not female prisoners, who
have been deemed worthy sacrificial lambs by the courts already.
Not the trans-identifying prisoners, whose every gender demand is now elevated far above any bog-standard prisoner protest. They may seem like the winners, but their reoffending rates likely get a boost by making
