No. I don't need to defend my objection to adult males having access to female spaces. That argument was had and done with over a century ago.
Helen, apparently your policy expertise ends at the bathroom door: throw people out, then declare the consequences somebody else’s homework.
You want trans women excluded. Defend the exclusion. What specific harm does it prevent? What evidence supports that? How will you enforce it? And where should trans women go when your imaginary alternative doesn’t exist?
“Adult males” repeats your classification. It doesn’t answer those questions. “Women fought for toilets” invokes history without establishing that your particular exclusion is justified.
If your answer is men’s toilets, own it and defend the consequences. If it’s separate facilities, explain what happens until they exist. “Somewhere else” isn’t a location, Helen. It’s where you’ve dumped every question you can’t answer.
You’ve supplied a demand and mistaken your contempt for a justification. Do the fucking work yourself.
As far as the rest of civil society is concerned you are not a human being. You are subhuman trash. Find your own society. Stop using human society to further your subhuman trash goals

A message to those who still believe that it all started on October 7. No, it didn't. A 'managed genocide', to keep 1.5 million Palestinians "on the edge of life" was in force years before. Read the latest report by Eyal Weizman:
"A military document called ‘Red Lines’ set the minimum number of calories required to sustain Gaza’s population at a level just above the UN definition of hunger (2100 calories a day for men, 1700 for women and a varying amount for children depending on gender and age). The total number of calories was translated into the tonnage required to feed Gaza’s then population of 1.5 million and thus the number of aid trucks allowed into the territory. The same went for megawatts of electricity and litres of fuel and water. What was seen as good behaviour was rewarded by an increase in the amounts coming in, any acts of resistance by the tightening of the siege, like a population-scale version of a Milgram experiment."

I worked in the NHS for 14 years. Now doctors like me who speak about Gaza are being reported to the GMC, written up in the press, and left fighting for our careers. This is my experience, and why I won't be silenced.
Please watch, share, and contact your MP.

Males cannot give birth, so they do not produce milk for an infant. That didn't stop The Australia Human Rights Commission from adding protection for males to breastfeed under the law. Wtf, Australia? archive.is/jlcoe #trans

This is your friendly reminder that taking skin from a woman’s thigh to create a non-functional tube of skin that is supposed to resemble male genitalia is not healthcare.

It’s not about being Jewish. It’s about being Zionists supporting the genocide of Palestinians. No Christians should support that.
I’m sick of Zionists lying about what the problem is. It’s their demand that we all bow down to Israel mass murdering, stealing land and demolishing our civil liberties.
“This problem was not created by Jewish Canadians; it does not just affect Jewish Canadians. It affects all Canadians. And we cannot leave it up to our Jewish neighbours to solve.”
In a powerful piece for @TheHubCanada, Andrew Bennett and @BrianDijkema call on Canada's Christian community to stand with Jewish Canadians in the face of rising antisemitism.
We welcome this call for solidarity and the recognition that protecting Jewish Canadians is essential to protecting the freedoms and values we all share.

Christians can add their names to the Canadian Christian Declaration on Antisemitism, already signed by more than 700 Christian clergy and lay leaders:

In this picture, you see a Palestinian woman named Hadeel Al-Dahdouh. Her home was raided while she was safe with her husband and her child, who was only two years old.
They removed her hijab, placed her among men wearing only their underwear, and subjected them to severe beatings. They then dug a large pit and began burying the men alive.
When the sand reached her husband's face and he began to suffocate, she tried to remove the sand from his face to save him. They beat her so brutally that even men would struggle to endure such violence.
After that, they fired shots into the air, told her that her husband had been killed, and then released her. Today, she lives in Gaza, suffering from severe psychological trauma as a result of what she endured.
As for her husband, he was released after three months, having endured a journey of torment inside the prisons. Throughout that entire period, Hadeel lived with the agonizing belief that her husband had been killed, unaware that he was still alive.
Israel has committed filthy and savage crimes against Palestinians unlike anything the world has ever witnessed in the entire history of humanity.

The most immoral army continues to slaughter children. Nearly daily.
UN bodies and human rights groups have documented the pattern in detail. Anyone who denies it should read these reports.
We keep receipts and there will be accountability.

"Witnessing such a young elephant lose its life to trophy hunting is a painful reminder of why we cannot allow this to continue.Together, let's demand stricter regulations and an immediate ban on trophy hunting. Our wildlife deserves better. #BanTrophyHuntingNow"

These people think you’re all stupid. But we all know the following is verifiably true:
On February 28, the US launched a war against Iran on behalf of Israel, despite the foreknowledge that Iran would close the Strait of Hormuz and despite US intel showing Iran was as not building nukes.
Disruptions in the Strait and destruction of oil/gas infrastructure has led to a global energy shortage.
Then, as expected, the war spread between Saudi and the Houthis. That led to more disruptions in the Red Sea and Bab al-Mandab Strait.
Since 1/3 of the world’s fertilizer travels through Hormuz, we’re seeing the beginning phases of global food crisis. In fact, JP Morgan put out analysis predicting a full blown global food crisis in Q1 2027.
But hey, at least Israel got its war. I guess it’s “antisemitic” to state the obvious.
So, don’t insult our intelligence while we’re all paying out the ass for everything,
On top of that, WE are forced to bankroll Israel’s wars and give them yearly aid to boot. We’re sick of it. The sense of entitlement is disgusting.
Some serious economic misinformation to go with the antisemitism in this ad that blames Israel for the rising price of American eggs, bananas, healthcare
- it falsely links American families’ grocery bills and healthcare costs to U.S. aid to Israel.
- Aid to Israel is approximately 0.05% of federal spending
- Most American military assistance to Israel goes to buy goods and services from U.S. defense contractors.
- U.S. assistance is overwhelmingly military, not a direct subsidy for Israeli healthcare
- most American bananas come from Guatemala, Ecuador, Costa Rica and Honduras and prices are rising because of El Niño.

Dear women of earth,
What’s stopping us from creating our own spaces, Jon is very confused and would like to know.

Things that are not genocide:
-- When a man seeks to join a woman's rugby team and is told he cannot join because he is a man but is eligible to join the team corresponding to his sex.
-- When a man is told he cannot use the ladies changing room but must use the changing room that corresponds to his sex.
-- When a male murderer who says he is a woman is told he must remain in a prison with other men rather than be transferred to a women's prison based on his claim to be a woman.
-- When the state declines to pay for a man's castration
-- When the state declines to pay for a man's mandibular reconstruction surgery.
-- When a passport or driver's license lists the material fact of a man's sex instead of his private reverie to be a woman
-- When a person remains free to refer to the material fact of a person's sex rather than being coerced by state power into joining in a person's attempted falsification of this fact
-- When a 9-year old child is judged ineligible to be prescribed an off-label cancer drug in order to freeze him in a pre-pubertal state so as to better mimic the appearance of a member of the opposite sex
Not only are none of these acts genocidal, none of them violate any right that any person has.
If they were granted, as they have been in many states, they would simply be discretionary entitlements being handed out by the state to a legally privileged caste of person at the expense of the rights of others.
Where they are being removed, it is simply a reversion to a status quo without a legally privileged caste being rewarded with special rights that come at the expense of the rights and finances of others.
Glad to clear this confusion up, guys -- I expect you will now desist from claiming that you are victims of a genocide when you are not victims of rights violation of any kind.
