Anti-trans ideology really does distort the believers’ sense of clinical reality
Stock’s glib claim that abortions are “just nodded through…for any reason” is exactly the kind of misinformation and fantasy that ends up harming people - women, girls,Trans men and boys, and Nonbinary folk especially

No way I’m sharing Stock’s UnHerd article. But I am going to point to this bit which amply demonstrates the anti-trans=>anti-women’s rights pipeline. “Abortions should only be done for a highly restricted set of reasons. They should not be just nodded through for any reason a pregnant woman likes.”

Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy) has expressed support for J.K. Rowling again, saying he is “not really attuned” to the controversy over Rowling’s gender-critical views:
“I can’t say it [impacts me], I’m not really that attuned to it [...] I have not seen anything bring the world together more than Potter. She’s responsible for that, so I’m incredibly grateful.” 🩵](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:2zfiswewixlrqmafvsxupa2s/bafkreidw5ouz3og2p7aepqzttyb6z6bcqqaeupzii2etps7ahlgzvdetoe@jpeg)

Like the Guardian, people view the BBC as left wing and, as a result, their combined anti trans campaigning has done more damage to trans people than the entire right wing media machine, because they legitimised the right wing's lies.

HMRC trial of child benefit crackdown wrongly suspected fraud in 46% of cases
Exclusive: Almost half of families flagged as emigrants based on Home Office travel data were still living in UK
Home Office travel records used in a trial of a controversial anti-fraud crackdown that under which thousands of parents lost their child benefit were so flawed that almost half of the families initially flagged as having emigrated were still living in the UK, it has emerged.
The pilot scheme saved HMRC £17m but left 46% of families targeted incorrectly suspected of fraud, a margin of error far in excess of the 1% to 5% scientifically acceptable. Continue reading...

We tried to place this story - very expensive polling, the first of its kind, strong quantitative data about what trans people feel about Britain: bluntly there is no better way to tell the story - with the BBC but it said it was "too weak".
But it will pick up any old piece of transhating garbage.
