appreciate what yr saying in yr second sentence, but yr first sentence is "not all old people". I think yr just at cross purposes, clearly it's not going to matter whether the propaganda doesn't work on autistic people over 60, it's aimed at everyone else

be surprised if that's what Tristan meant. speaking for me obvs, media are obsessed w/ young people w/ autism and ADHD. many scare articles about old people with autism? bad faith media focus on autism affects all people with autism, the dual discrimination against young people is more sinister

is this something you can expand on? is it "not all old people" or worse "not all media class" or have I misunderstood what yr getting at?

they can make a lot of money off columns about trans people and neurodivergent people though, it's harder to monetise poly relationships (though I'm not ruling out them finding some wild lie that suddenly trips the algorithm for them)

but as you say, it doesn't touch their world. maybe if they start losing partners to polycules, or their kids start going no contact they'll continue on working from home, gay adoption, surrogacy, cuz they'll see all this in their workplaces, and these all tweak yuck / curtain twitching neurones

I think they've other stuff to run through, all the things that make their brains go yuck, crossed with things they get asked to accommodate which is why they're putting the feelers out against physical disability too agree with you, they have lines they can't wait to use about poly relationships

if yr a centrist or a rightwing ghoul, cancel culture is win win, whether yr reporting on it, enacting it, or pretending to be on the receiving end for everyone else, you leave the country or join their side, and if you can't or don't... it's a death sentence. so so tragic

1. The art you dream of will not not get made if you don't support indie artists. We need to build up artists so they have the resources and thr security of life to make the more ambitious art.

so we're secretly adding terror charges to people's sentences, and in america (which is just a more relentless version of this country) they're designating all trans people as terrorists, and our ongoing response is to pave the way for american style govt and to give contracts to big data sauron

I strongly advise you to get this into your mind and then to try and drill it into the minds of everyone you know. Do not comply in advance. These hateful authoritarian lunatics are incompetent and stupid. They are relying on you treating them with respect and compliance to achieve anything

Trans kids, instead of being offered the puberty blockers they need, are being referred to mental health support for the harm this is causing. Yet mental health support systems are “beyond broken” already. Piling additional unnecessary harm on top of the unnecessary harm the blocker ban is causing

The UK continues to quietly force trans adults to detransition. It was never about trans youth. Doctors in the UK are withdrawing hormones without warning and cutting tags people off even after decades of being on HRT. www.the-independent.com/news/uk/home...

The puberty blocker ban will be extended, likely before the end of the week and it won't be extended by months but by years. They've met with trans kids. They've met with parents. They've met with trans groups. They haven't listened. They don't care.

🚨 Rivkah Brown of Novara reports that Wes Streeting likely to make the UK ban on puberty blockers permanent, imminently. A permanent ban of this kind legally requires consultation. The consultation concluded in November, but it seems likely Streeting had already made his decision before then.
Twitter screenshot of Rivkah Brown

NEW: 
@wesstreeting
 is likely to make the temporary ban on puberty blockers permanent as early as this week. NI executive is voting on a permanent ban that, if passed, will allow Streeting to announce a ban for the whole of the UK.

Clinicians have noted that the temporary ban makes sense in the context of the Cass-recommended trial of puberty blockers. Leaving aside the cruelty of a double-blind PB trial (you quickly realise if you're in the control group, with potentially devastating consequences)

the trial wouldn't really work without such a ban, as there'd be no incentive to participate in it (why risk a 50% chance of not getting PBs when you could go through regular NHS routes and get them with more certainty?). This permanent ban much more transparently ideological.

News has just broke that Trump plans to eject trans people from the military within days of inauguration. Trans servicemembers who have served 19 years will lose their pensions and healthcare. This is obscene. They served our country, and will be kicked to the side like trash.

The ideals of the genders Cis-woman and Cis-man are objectively the most artificial genders of all. At least catgirls are based in something naturally occurring.
Quote tweeting Blizzy McGuire for saying "ppl r really serious about xenogenders oh it's so over for actual trans people"

All genders are made up, ESPECIALLY trad wives and husbands.
