No YOU’RE the dark symbol
Such childish door-slamming where journalism should be:
The court of session ruling upholding the UK government’s veto on Scotland’s gender recognition reforms contributed to a “sense of exhaustion” in the trans community, said Jennie Kermode, a writer, film-maker and adviser for Trans Media Watch, based near Glasgow.
After that we get five paragraphs of Kermode blathering as if trans people were the only people who have any stake in this issue. Hello? Guardian? Libby Brooks? Are you aware that women exist? That in fact there are a lot of us? That we have rights too?
Dylan Hamilton, a climate activist, said the ruling was “as much an issue about Scotland’s democracy as it is about the human rights of trans people”.
Gender recognition reform amounted to “a small administrative change that makes our lives slightly easier to lead”, he added. “I think the fact that this cannot even be passed is a dark symbol of how strong the opposition to our right to exist is.”
And yet no one is denying trans people’s right to exist.
But they have to convince everyone else that that’s what’s at stake to justify the whole “NO DEBATE” stance. It’s all part of the whole house of cards that trans “rights” are built on. The whole foundation consists of a self-reinforcing nothingness of lies and word-games that cannot bear any degree of scrutiny or examination. As soon as you question one claim, they all collapse. “Be kind and stop staring at the lack of evidence and justification for our demands. Just give us what we want or we’ll kill ourselves, because a tiny cabal of evil TERFS (to whom you must pay no atention. At all.) are plotting to murder us all! Yeah, that sounds like normal political debate.
Denying Scotland’s democracy? Have they taken a vote on this? Given voters full information, such as what “Gender reform” means for them, for women, for the communities they live in? Told them this comes with male bodies in female spaces? Or did they just consider the “trans community”, and discover that a majority of them are on board?
