Peak reversal

It’s always hate women day at Number 10.

A drag queen who criticised JK Rowling over her views on trans people was invited to celebrate Burns Night at No 10.

Sir Keir Starmer was pictured alongside Lawrence Chaney, a former winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK, in an event Downing Street said was intended to “honour the life and legacy” of Scotland’s national bard.

Starmer wanted to celebrate Burns so he invited a mockery of women to help the celebrating. It’s funny how men like Starmer don’t invite blackface comedians to help them celebrate things, but they do think it’s just fine to invite womanface comedians to do that. Women don’t matter, is that it? Women are obviously inferior so it only makes sense to jeer at them by putting on a skirt and wig?

The move provoked a backlash over controversial remarks previously made by Chaney, who was heavily made up and in Scottish dress for the event, including accusing the Harry Potter author of stoking up “hate” towards transgender people.

Chaney also recently shared a post on X which appeared to compare women concerned at the loss of single-sex spaces to racist segregationists in 1960s America.

So women are the equivalent of racists while men are the equivalent of the victims of racism. Women have all the power, and abuse it, while men have no power, and are punished for trying to get some. Is that what we’re saying now? Women are the all-powerful immovable oppressors and exploiters of men? Men are the brave determined underlings struggling to defend their dignity?

In the post shared by Chaney in November, an image of US Congresswoman Nancy Mace, in front of a sign which says “biological” in front of women on a bathroom door, is set alongside a woman smiling in front of a “white women only” bathroom door in 1962 Mississippi.

And there it is. The answer is yes. Women are now the oppressor class and men are their victims. Adjust your maps accordingly.
