I really don’t understand why it’s so utterly important for some people to abuse other people.

So are we banning transitioning from rich white boy to rapist yet? Or are we still focused on transgender people?

This is why more women don't come forward, and why more rapists aren't jailed. Because mostly-male cops and prosecutors find it more believable that a 20-yr-old would want to have sex with a room full of fraternity brothers than accept she was raped. What ever happened to common fucking sense?

Every day I think of the phrase, “better to rule in hell than serve in heaven.” I used to think of it as a boldly defiant battle cry. But now I wonder if I misunderstood and really it meant, “better to create a hell I control, than to allow a heaven that I do not.”

Student journalists are always much more willing to hold violent students accountable that university administrators. And their call out of the “educational interventions” used by schools to left rapists off the hook is a must-read.

I’m going to call bullshit on this. Mathematics has been a white supremacy laden exercise in eliminating as many people as possible from understanding in pursuit of a purist approach by ‘the right people’ for centuries.

Growing up poor but white, we were deeply steeped in American exceptionalism lore. Things weren’t bad, they were, “better than X.” Things that we couldn’t access weren’t unjust they were, “work hard and you will.” It was a level playing field and “-isms” had all been solved from 1945-1965.

Astonishing really how ADHD-denialism so closely matches early trans-denialism (say, a decade ago, before it went mask-off eliminationist), to the point that it includes the exact same personalities, again vomiting their know-nothing opinions all over the place.

Feminism doesn't require women to see trans+ people as the enemy. For many of us, feminism has always meant challenging inequality, standing alongside people whose rights are under threat, and refusing to accept that one group's equality must come at another's expense. That's our feminism too.

“I have grown incredibly exasperated at the portrayal of ‘gender critical’ perspectives as representing all women when my feminism has ALWAYS been inclusive and intersectional.”

This is an example of a writer being confidently wrong and as a result, causing harm. There are a number of issues with this study, and its predecessor, which make its conclusions suspect at best. That doesn’t stop them from seizing on it for yet another anti-trans care “caution” piece, though.

The government moving or hiding jailed people to avoid review by courts isn't some loophole in our habeas corpus rights. This government behavior has been considered a violation of the people's habeas corpus rights since at least the Habeas Corpus Act of 1679. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Habeas_...
Jailors were forbidden to move prisoners from one prison to another or out of the country to evade the writ. In case of disobedience jailers would be punished with severe fines which had to be paid to the prisoner.[5][6]
