Five days later I am still grappling with how these academics have abandoned reality. Full bonk.

50 years ago anti-gay people encouraged chemical castration of gay people. Now trans activists lobby for chemical castration of gender non conforming young people, many of whom, if left alone, would grow up to be gay. The rhetoric is the same but not as described here.

I won't be congratulating the people who managed to hold off the NZ ban on puberty blockers. PBs are a form of youth gay conversion therapy. PBs deprive confuse kids-often growing into same-sex attraction-of the opportunity to settle into their bodies and sexuality.

WARNING: Wellington Pride kicked lesbians out of its event because they advocate for the rights of those who are exclusively same-sex oriented. This homophobic bigotry was by Pride against lesbians. Lesbianism itself is now considered "anti-trans bullying"

The buck stops where? Pay equity and the coalition government. My Stuff #cartoon today. #NZpol #PayEquity #PeoplesSelectCommittee
Cartoon. Title: “The Ten Bucks Stops Here”. Image shows PM Christopher Luxon opening a wallet, and a $10 note pops out of the wallet with “The People’s Select Committee” written on it. Kate Sheppard on a $10 note points at Luxon’s forehead and says “What. Were. You. All. Thinking?”

The new homophobes and misogynists wrap themselves in progress flags. In 2021 Wellington 'Pride' activists surrounded a group of elderly lesbians showing a map of Wellington lesbian history outside the venue they had been banned from. theministryhasfallen.substack.com/p/the-curiou...

Wellington Pride has betrayed lesbian & lesbian history. It banned LAVA from an event because LAVA believes lesbians are same sex attracted. Stuff the performative lanyards, this Pride month support LAVA's human rights case against the homophobic group #WellingtonShame ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 www.lava.nz/our-case
