Women must be forced to comply

Willoughby thinks he’s a brave activist as opposed to a bullying misogynist. Not good at self-knowledge, that one.

Men who claim to be trans are not comparable to “Black and Gay” [notice he didn’t mention women]; they’re comparable to the people who oppressed “Black and Gay” (and women). Willoughby isn’t on the side of the despised and rejected, he’s on the side of the bosses. He wants to boss everyone, especially women. He wants to push women aside and take over. He especially wants to force himself on us, calling our refusal “segregation.” He’s a very bad man.

Well, they really don’t want to draw a direct comparison to the civil disobedience and campaigning by women for the right to vote, own property, not be raped or sexually assaulted, have safe and separate women only facilities etc. It would paint the issues in quite sharp relief.

Why not consult an actual black person about this? Dr. King on just and unjust laws:

An unjust law is a code that a majority inflicts on a minority that is not binding on itself.

This is difference made legal. On the other hand a just law is a code that a majority compels a minority to follow that it is willing to follow itself. This is sameness made legal.

Let me give another explanation. An unjust law is a code inflicted upon a minority which that minority had no part in enacting or creating because they did not have the unhampered right to vote. Who can say the legislature of Alabama which set up the segregation laws was democratically elected? Throughout the state of Alabama all types of convenient methods are used to prevent Negroes from becoming registered voters and there are some counties without a single Negro registered to vote despite the fact that the Negro constitutes a majority of the population.

Trans “rights” to women’s spaces and sports teams? Unjust. Trans “rights” to free cosmetic surgery? Unjust. Trans “rights” to demand validation of everyone around them and determine how they’re spoken of? WAY unjust. These “rights” are the dead opposite of just as Dr. King frames it here.
