They're moving on from trans youth towards advocating banning care for trans adults, just like we said they would.

the maddening thing is that none of this history plays *any* role at all in discussion of "welfare reform". There will be no questions about why all the other "welfare reforms" (ie. cuts) didn't work. Why the callous Tories, who actually HAD A MANDATE for cutting state support, couldn't manage it

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.

The thing about trying to appeal to right wing bigots is that right wing bigots are all stupid idiots who get 100% of their news from propagandists so they will never actually find out that you were trying to appeal to them in the first place

Rich men used to fear that a mob from the town would show up and seize their factories and mansions. That ceased to be any concern a long time ago so now, they fight like lions to ensure random dorks on Twitter dot com aren’t telling each other not to buy Hank Wank’s new album because he is a dick.

The leader of the Tories made a Neo-Nazi criminal an anti-racism and anti-extremism adviser, because she’s so disastrously online she couldn’t see an issue with him having harassed an MP so horrendously that he was sent to prison for it. All the lads hemmed and hawed a bit, until it went away.
may get shouted out for this, but it's a real observation: Polanski has a pattern of behaviour of making trouble for himself by telling fibs when he absolutely doesn't need to do so. He lies reflexively and then creates several more news cycles as a result. 1/3

it's interesting, isn't it, when someone keeps committing crimes on camera and not getting charged with anything. for all the police's institutional hard right slant they do and have arrested quite a lot of people at right wing protests/attempted pogroms over the last couple of years.

The elephant in the room here - aside from the fact that the government and its various hangers on are very right wing, and they don’t want to combat the far right - is that they are terrified of the American Eye Of Sauron properly fixing upon Britain as a problem, or as an opportunity.

All the lads declared War On Fake News in 2016 to strike back at Faragery and Trumpism, then swiftly clocked that this would mean fighting against the Tories, the Sun, the Mail and the Times, and pivoted to all-out war against Twitter leftists and Russian Facebook. This will be much the same shit.

A British counter disinformation centre is long overdue, and very welcome.
For too long,
the approach of successive
governments to disinformation has been disjointed and without organisation, allowing states like Russia to amplify lies about this country, to sow division and stoke tensions. This new National Centre for Information Defence is an opportunity to finally take on this very serious threat."
The Foreign Affairs Committee recommended exactly this in March. We were extremely worried about what seemed to be a complacency of the British establishment at the disinformation being promoted from abroad, particularly from Russia. We thought the response from Whitehall had essentially been 'talk to the hand because the face ain't listening, but it seems we were wrong. I'm absolutely delighted.

The BBC is pro far right and anti left, because this is the British establishment definition of impartial. These people believe that some powerful group of left wingers actually run everything, and that pushing the far right is a necessary counterbalance.

"Your brains stop developing at age 25" was a press misrepresentation of a study. They wanted to see if brains continued to develop after adolescence, so the study was capped at age 25. A later study with a wider subject pool showed that brains are ALWAYS developing our whole lives.

I'm of the view that if stuff like this weren't a big deal, then the Israelis wouldn't be throwing an apoplectic fit about it, but it is funny that the substance of Andy Burnham's Guardian oped is effectively, "My government is taking bold steps: Recognising international law and following it."
