Androgirls:

seems blatantly obvious that authoritarian fascists mostly hate transgender people simply for the deliberate infertility involved in some medical transitions & yet some women whom the fascists want gestating all those future soldiers are just plain stupid enough to believe the fox is there to guard the henhouse. yeah yeah sure "defending women". btw show us your genitals if you want to participate in 7th grade hockey because we have to protect girls. maybe if you had more than five brain cells to rub together you would be capable of reasoning this one out: they want to ban abortion for the exact same reason they want to litigate being transgender out of existence and you are the definition of a useful idiot

Statue of a female knight, Rome

JK Rowling has used her billionaire legal team to silence a Jewish woman for telling the truth about her contempt for trans victims of the Holocaust.

Scotland’s network of “freedom of speech” organisations, as per usual, have nothing to say about the use of wealth to gag critics of the wealthy.

However fast they race to condemn the LGBT+ community for saying the names of those who harm us. Statements at the ready to insist that transphobes no one wants to work with anymore must be given every possible opportunity to gain from their bigotry.

But it's not the billionaires who are being silenced, as our media breathlessly echo their every hateful proclamation.

It's journalists and activists forced to publicly humiliate themselves under the weight and the threat of billionaire legal teams or be driven into destitution.

We deserve better. Freedom of speech needs to mean something

A.U.C. 334: about this date, For a sexual misdemeanour which she denied, The vestal virgin Postumia was tried; Livy records it among affairs of state.

They let her off: it seems she was perfectly pure; The charge arose because some thought her talk Too witty for a young girl, her eyes, her walk Too lively, her clothes too smart to be demure.

The Pontifex Maximus, summing up the case, Warned her in future to abstain from jokes, To wear less modish and more pious frocks. She left the court reprieved, but in disgrace.
