When injustice becomes law, resistance becomes a duty. I oppose genocide.

EU to freeze €210bn in Russian assets indefinitely
EU to freeze €210bn in Russian assets indefinitely
The decision is a significant step towards using the cash to aid Ukraine’s defence – but Moscow is threatening to retaliate
The EU has agreed to indefinitely freeze Russia’s sovereign assets in the bloc, as Moscow stepped up its threats to retaliate against Euroclear, the keeper of most of the Kremlin’s immobilised money.
The decision by the EU to use emergency powers to immobilise €210bn (£185bn) of its central bank’s assets marks a significant step towards using the cash to aid Ukraine’s defence against Russia. Continue reading...

It’s amazing how inclined towards censorship these “free speech absolutists” are. It’s almost as if everything they say is absolute bullshit.
Meta has removed or restricted dozens of accounts belonging to abortion access providers, queer groups and reproductive health organisations in the past weeks in what Repro Uncensored call one of the “biggest waves of censorship” on its platforms in years.
Meta shuts down global accounts linked to abortion advice and queer content
More than 50 organisations report sites being restricted or removed, with abortion hotlines blocked and posts showing non-explicit nudity triggering warnings

Our media's reporting of trans issues is poisonous, unhinged, a betrayal by those who pretend to report impartially, and shamefully reminiscent of other hate propagandising throughout the last century. I'm surprised to see it in the UK but I need to learn that it is, since Brexit, just who we are.

My thread earlier focused on the discussion re. FWS - but I just want to draw this out really explicitly:
The press absolutely monstered Dr Beth Upton in the most appalling way – only for the Tribunal to find that Beth had done nothing wrong, but that Sandie Peggie had harassed her.

Also worth noting, the Tribunal found that Sandie Peggie had harassed Dr Beth Upton in a "hate incident".

The GC mob are radicalised with their hatred of trans people and that is a form of bigotry. They are also destabilising this country and receive funds from outside the UK. They need investigating at the highest level.

HR departments countrywide need to start treating gendercrit employees as potentially hostile. As soon as you are required to interact with one, you dust off the rulebook, you dot every eye and cross every t, and you assume bad faith at every turn.
They are a threat to every organisation.

If, when being interviewed, politicians just spoke normally, not repeating the same scripted response over and over again, we'd hate them a little less. Not a lot, but a little bit.

A summary of our statement on the research protocol:
This research is not about the safety of these medications which have been used for this very purpose since 1989. It is the result of an ideological view at the very top of the DHSC and NHS that being trans is a ‘less desirable outcome.’
