1/ Stonewall were never slow to baselessly accuse enemies of being in receipt of shadowy US funding, sometimes directly, sometimes via media outrunners like the Good Laugh Project. Mermaids did this too. Yet now we know the truth. This is quite serious.
2/ The effect of this funding was to distort UK political discourse at the highest levels presenting ministers with outright lies. You can see the former in the "just a bit of admin" lie re GRCs and the latter in Ruth Hunt lies about puberty blockers

3/ It is difficult to understate just how damaging Stonewall's activism was to the cohort it was supposed to represent. For example, one phone call from Stonewall would have stopped the gruesome experiments at the Tavistock gender abattoir.

4/ When others stepped into the breach and desperately tried to protect proto gay/lesbian youth, Stonewall unleashed the hounds. Memorably so in the case of the heroic women at transgender trend.

5/ And when it wasn't aiding and abetting modern chemical and surgical gay conversion therapy, Stonewall was relentlessly harassing lesbians via "cotton ceiling" conversion therapy chat or calling them "sexual racists".

6/ It comes to this. Stonewall faced a choice between political transvestitism and homosexuality (and lesbians in particular). It chose political transvestitism. Homosexuals were the "price worth paying" for contemporary relevance and, as it now turns out, lavish US funding. Image
7/ And Stonewall did all of this having promised they would not. Bev is not alone here, just about every public figure in gay politics around at the time has a similar story. We were promised there would be no T campaigning and that promise was a lie.

8/ So. Who paid the price for all this? Well, principally it was the young promised an endocrine transubstantiation and solution to their loneliness, their difference, their autism, their emergent homosexuality. They were the principal victims. Image
9/ And gay rights more generally paid a heavy price. Reduced to hawking modern leisure identities for sale, Stonewall now circles the drain of relevance and borders on silly. It has taken a mountain of goodwill and influence and sits a top a modern mole hill of irrelevance. Image
10/ And it will be remembered this way. As an disconnected aristocratic absurdity, as the indulged ruler who grew fat on US money and unhinged from reality. As the soldier who did not just abandon his post, but who joined the enemy. No gay rights activist will mourn it going. Image

1/ NHS Fife demonstrates the vast & enduring institutional power of political travestitism, you cross this force, and it's doesn't matter if you're a nurse with decades and decades of unblemished public service, you will face confected hurts and institutional wrath like no other.
2/ Political tranvestitism is an inorganic, top/down force well used to power and influence, so it luxuriates (often absurdly) when on public show, for it has no sense whatsoever of how absurd it is. This is a movement characterised by boys no one ever said the word "no" to.
3/ It is in reality now in a stage of true solipsism. "Gender identity", which is now a proxy for the self, is the only and the paragon virtue, everyone else is an NPC arranged around the main character only useful in their roles of flattering or venerating the gender identity.

1/ The modern body politic lies at the end of the long road to solipsism, if you want to understand the present moment, you have to understand principally that Western societies endlessly meditate on the self and the only political unit in town is the individual. And it's lonely.
2/ This all started a long time ago. Fad diets. Gym memberships to achieve bodies measured against pornographic aesthetics. The normalisation of the therapist. The primacy of individual lived experience. And then the information revolution that catalysed it all into outright war.
3/ What the printing press was to the wars of religion, the internet is to gender rancour. The book of revelations is our climate crisis doomsaying in Green politics. Not that the science is wrong, but it attracts a apocalyptic sort who delights in visions of fiery damnation.

1/ The gender borg have every right to be furious with @stonewalluk for sneakily ditching their belief in gender identity in their new definition of transphobia. Political transvestitism holds that men in dresses have soul-like female gender identities - Stonewall now denies this Image
Image
2/ Stonewall used to believe gender identity existed and that enforcing the reassessment of Allison Bailey, the cancellation of any number of women, the harassment of James Dreyfus was justified in the name of the new religion of gender identity. Yet now they abandon it. Image
3/ You might think this is quite incredible from an organisation that lied to frightened parents and told them 50% of children denied puberty blockers commit suicide on the basis of their "gender identities" being denied, the concept they have abandoned.

1/ I welcome extreme trans activist charity @stonewalluk backing away from the absurd position they used to hold until a month ago when they deprecated the use of the word "homosexual" as a "medical term". They have now U-Turned on this in a blow to political transvestitism. Image
Image
2/ "Homosexual" was always offensive to political transvestitism because it implied there was such a thing as sex and that two people of the same sex might be involved. Now, it's not perfect because it says "or gender" in the new version. But it's progress of a kind.
3/ By calling homosexuality a "medical term" in an era when the Tavistock was medicalising homosexuality, Stonewall offered their full support to the reconceptualisation of homosexuality as a medical concern.

1/ "The unserious grappling with the serious" is a fair summary of the kid's table antics of the assisted suicide committee this week. Where there should have been discourse and information, there was instead wordplay and sophistry worthy of Lewis Caroll.
2/ Where there should have been courtesy and open minds to critical voices, there were specious points of order, MPs playing on their phones, yawning, or witnesses writing off concerns around easting disorders as a "red herring" and just one or two cases

3/ At times, it has not been obvious that MPs understand their own bill. 3 examples: Here is Professor House explaining the Mental Capacity Tests in this bill is far weaker than than the normal tests a psychiatrist would conduct with suicidal ideation.

1/ This is breath taking. One of the responsibilities of the assisted suicide committee is to consider safeguards against domestic abuse and exploitation of the elderly. Diane Abbot's reasonable amendment asking for this has just been voted down. This is outrageous.
2/ Earlier today the committee heard worrying evidence from the President of the Association for Palliative Medicine, Dr Sarah Cox, she said ""You can't always identify coercion", Dr Rachel Clarke said similar and said realities should not be ignored.

3/ You might have thought expert evidence on questions of domestic abuse, controlling and coercive relationship and the protection of the elderly were absolutely critical to the work of the committee and that these voices should be heard.
