So @legalfeminist I have a question about the legal advice that Naomi Cunningham, whom I could not find on Twitter, wrote for @FiLiA_charity , and this quesiton will not be a "typical pro-trans" question. I wonder if Naomi may have missed one possible pathway for associations.
The advice is here lgballiancecymru.wales/wp-content/upl… and of course I disagree with some views there, such as paragraphs 40-41 (which seem to run cuunter to AEA v EHRC), but this is not my point right now.

A few days ago an anti-trans activist tweeted this image at me. I find it very interesting as it lets us track how anti-trans activism led radical feminists to become tools of the trad right and to alter their past positions, while the trads "gave a bit" too.
I'll skip "feminist" because everyone uses that label in their own way (including Christina Hoff Sommers with her "Factual Feminist").

Hey @homebird_rebel now we're at equestrian analysis of the new Troubles in US: what on earth was this cop doing? I'm not good enough to decode the video fully but - TROTTING INTO A CROWD?! dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8…
It also seems that the horse halts for a moment only to move on and plough into the woman. Was that the poor horse realizing just what was going to happen, trying to stop, but unable to hold their balance because the rider had them in a trot?

In the current situation, when traditional conservatives are openly taking the helm of the movement they always created from behind the scenes, and turning it to the ends it was really designed for,it is important to understand what they are like.
Not like Trump at all.
Thread.
I have known, and sometimes still know, quite a few traditional conservatives. And many of them are good, decent, kind people. Full of honesty and integrity. And really believing in what they say.
If you just gear up to fight boogeymen, you have the wrong aim.
