It is a cheap rhetorical trick to constantly pretend, as Trans Radical Activists do, that this debate is the same as the Civil Rights Movement or the Gay Rights Movement. It isn’t, because in those debates, there was no conflict of rights between peoples. #BBCQT
A black person being able to vote did not affect a white person being able to vote. A gay person not going to jail for being gay did not mean straight people would now be imprisoned, and lesbians being able to marry had no impact on straight people being able to marry. #bbcqt
However, a trans woman wanting access to female-only spaces, directly contradicts the right of women to areas where males won’t be. These areas are based on scientific reality, decades m of data, & millennia of common sense, regarding the physical advantages men have over women.
TRAs not only want to pretend that everyone who disagrees with them is a bigot, but they want to play make-belief regarding biological fact and crime statistics. Trans women (men) are more likely to sexually assault women than men are. It is not hateful to state the truth. #bbcqt
Adding this thread here as it shows another fundamental difference between what TRAs are claiming they are doing, and what black/gay people actually did:
Remember. A masked mob of Muslims turned up at a school and a teacher’s life was threatened (like Samuel Paty) because he showed a picture of Muhammad. That teacher is still in hiding. The police did nothing. Don’t insult people by pretending two-tier policing doesn’t exist.
An independent report - the Khan Review - concluded that the teacher was badly let down by the school, the local council and in particular the police, who, despite cleared of any malicious intent by an independent investigation, “did not consider him a victim of crime.”
What I remember most about that story was the deafening silence from the political class.
Imagine a brown Muslim teacher did something in a classroom that had a mob of white Christians threatening his life & forcing him into hiding.
