It's Safer in the Front

To anyone seeing this, an extremist anti-trans harassment account from Twitter called Reduxx has migrated over to Bluesky & is gaining a significant following among the British TERFs already here.

**Please report the account.**

They routinely harass LGBTI people. They need to be banned ASAP

"The Nazis forced the LGBT+ community to identity themselves as ‘degenerates’ by wearing pink triangles. Labour’s policy means that for trans people to move through the public sphere they will need, similarly, to identify themselves as trans in an increasingly violent and transphobic world."
Labour's new policy - of humiliating trans people by requiring them constantly to self-identify - we believe puts the UK (again) in breach of its obligations under the European Convention on Human Rights and will seek a declaration of incompatability. goodlaw.social/0r6l

Also, given Keir Starmer is a supporter of the Gaza Genocide, being a transphobic fuck is entirely on message.

Bathroom bans harm all women because they reduce people down to their appearance
They reduce people to an assessment of their appearance based on gendered norms, and give excuses to those who want to inspect people's genitals.

The oil industry has now strangled democracy in the UK

The fossil fuel lobby has bought powerful friends in the UK government

MPs earn millions to protect oil

Even talking about any form of protest is now illegal and many have been imprisoned for just that

a friend invited my wife and me to visit them… and we were invited to an event i’ve wanted to do since childhood

had to turn both down because they’re in states where i can’t use the bathroom, and if i had to go to the hospital they’d forcibly detransition me by stopping my HRT

do you get it yet?

We know that a lot of trans people's are having the experience of their GP refusing to prescribe their HRT to them - even if they have a letter from an NHS gender clinic requesting that they do.

Take a look at our 'My GP is Refusing to Prescribe My HRT' resource: transactual.org.uk/medical-tran...
My GP is refusing to prescribe my HRT: What can I do? – TransActual
TransActual regularly hear reports of trans people whose GP has refused to prescribe their hormone replacement therapy (HRT).

The "feminism" in Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminism functions the same way as the "socialism" in National Socialism. It's there to convince you that they're addressing material issues of an oppressed class, when they're actually just exploiting said class to hurt others.
