The 'panic' around Lia Thomas was about creating a target people could point at while demanding exclusion. So much of what people “know” about Lia comes from manufactured outrage and years of misinformation repeated without context. We commissioned this comic to break down the actual story. 1/2

Cartoon of Lia Thomas with purple hair, smiling and holding a trophy, making a peace sign. Background features a trans flag and text about sports inclusivity.

A swimmer in the water with text overlay: "Lia's college swimming career began in 2017. Aged 18, she joined the University of Pennsylvania men's swimming team. Like most young athletes, her performances improved with age and experience."

Swimmer's in the water with text overlay: "Her overall best US ranking in the men's competition was 11th after placing 1st and 2nd in several events, including the 200 and 500 yard freestyle between 2017 and 2019."

A swimmer looking at the water in a red swimming costume and bathing cap, with a text overlay: "In 2019 she started HRT as part of her transition. Her performances dropped dramatically. She ranked 65th in the 500 yard free and 554th in the 200 yard free. Overall her US ranking dropped to 63rd."

there is no such thing as "age verification." All "age verification" is actually "identity verification." You can coat it in glitter and "privacy-preserving" wrapping paper. But in the end, mandating age verification means mandating surveillance be built into software and hardware. Period.

BASH BACK @bashback.bsky.social · 15/07/2026

This morning, Reform spokesperson Zia Yusuf made false and misleading accusations about BASH BACK. Read our statement setting the record straight. xoxo BASH BACK

Zia Yusuf of reform uk says BASH BACK is targeting MPs and threatening violence against them. This is not true and we strongly deny these claims.

BASH BACK is a non-violent direct action group. our Guide explicitly says: "we do not condone causing physical harm to any human being".

By contrast, Reform politicians have repeatedly threatened to unleash extreme violence against migrants, queers, Palestinians, people of colour and disabled people.

We will not take lectures from a bigoted fascist gang who incite far-right street violence, and we will not bend the knee to a party that is brutalising queer communities.

We fight for total trans liberation.

these smears will not stop us.

We are raising funds for urgent legal and care-related support before the deadline.

Money raised may be used for:

* evidence review
* legal letters before the 31 July deadline
* possible injunction or pre-action work
* support for families challenging inaccurate outcome letters
* care-related costs if families are forced to seek safe alternatives
* practical administration needed to organise evidence and protect families’ privacy

Families are trying to act responsibly and urgently. We need legal advice to understand whether the deadline can be paused while errors are corrected, whether the process has been lawful and fair, and how children can be protected from avoidable harm.

This, from Amnesty International, tells you all you need to know about transphobic bias in UK mainstream media.

The Corpus Linguistics Analysis shows sustained disproportionate levels of press

coverage of 'trans issues' between 2020 and 2025, averaging 264 articles per month

across the four outlets considered. The bigrams analysis shows that trans people are

virtually invisible in the content that concerns their lives. Top politicians instead recur

regularly, which suggests 'trans issues' have been elevated to key political priorities.

I'm reluctant to speak up on trans topics these days because it's often not worth the pain caused, so I'm probably going to regret this, but disappointingly a lot of people need to hear this. Accusing trans women of "male socialization" is an astonishingly cruel, callous, and spiteful thing to say.

It's a particularly cruel way to misgender us, but as well as that I often see it weaponized against trans women to silence or punish us for daring to assert ourselves; be quiet, be a doormat, go away, otherwise it's your "MaLe eNeRgY" showing. It's only ever trotted out to put us in our place.
