@senatorbabet That's not democracy that's timocracy.

@senatorbabet What are Americans sacred and above the law in your philosophy?

[Candi Forrest @CandiRespect]

@senatorbabet There's no such thing as blanket free speech. Most speech is censored in all nations. Freedom of speech, as in the concept declared in USA constitution, refers only to political speech.

@senatorbabet No they don't. Hitler died in a bunker

@RpsAgainstTrump Has he even read the New Testament? In the Garden of Gethsemane, when a disciple (identified as Peter in John 18:10) drew a sword to defend him during his arrest, Jesus said, "Put your sword back in its place... for all who draw the sword will die by the sword" (Matthew 26:52).

A vicious cycle.

@respectqld Was a great day, such a privilege to work with such tenacious whores

What an amazing way to celebrate Labour Day!
DECRIM COMMENCES 1ST AUGUST, 2024

[Candi Forrest @CandiRespect]

@eekiemout @scarletalliance I was surprised to see the love of my life and partner in crime, Josiah John Ashwood, standing in the background of this 2019 rally image provided by Respect Inc. He died in Nov 2023 and his absence has been acutely felt by me more so since the passing of the bill in Qld. Beyond.

"Additionally, the new law updated the Anti-Discrimination Act 1991 to include protection for sex workers ensuring that sex workers could not be discriminated against by hotels & accommodations for believing that guests would be using a room for sex work."

Premier Steven Miles just announced s3x werk decrim commences 1 Aug 24 in QLD #DecrimQLD

[Scarlet Alliance @scarletalliance]

Scarlet Alliance has long advocated for a rights based approach to migration, including accessible migration pathways, secure visas and an end to discrimination against our communities, including sex workers and people living with HIV! #IAS2023 https://t.co/bV7T0ac7pw

Migrant sex workers speak for themselves about recent police raids to 'save' them from exploitation https://t.co/Or9nKqlFVQ

@MyahaQueenie171 @UglaStefania Are you suggesting mysogyny is being applied to transwomen but not transmen? I don't think so. The loudest transphobic voices seem to be coming from radical feminists. Anyway I know a few transmen who are active in debates

[Candi Forrest @CandiRespect]

@colwight @UglaStefania I think it would be an interesting exercise to do this. I mean how long ago did these gendered sport categories get started. They are based on old attitudes about women being sooo much weaker and less competent than men. Sure biology plays a part but how much really?

[Candi Forrest @CandiRespect]

Sigh...more evidence we will have to keep fighting for sw rights forever. Netherlands used to be a beacon of liberalism and common sense.

[SIN SA @SIN_SouthAus]

Yet another shameful example of lawmakers ignoring the voices of sex workers, assuming what is best for us and enacting changes that will only increase harm.

Listen to sex workers!

NEWSFLASH: The Attorney General @ShannonFentiman has announced the intention to decriminalise SW following 47 recommendations from the independent QLRC Report (still to be released) #DecrimQLD

[Candi Forrest @CandiRespect]

If you've ever thought about coming out to support sex workers rights in Qld NOW is the time. HELP TO MAKE HISTORY on May 1

[Decrim Qld @DecrimQLD]

We’ve been invited to March on LABOUR DAY in pride of place behind the First Nations contingent. This is because the decriminalisation of s3x work is considered a key issue alongside the Voice to Parliament. #DecrimQLD

[Candi Forrest @CandiRespect]

@scarletalliance @FawkesJanelle Proud to call Jules a friend and she has worked her butt off for #sexworkers rights at #scarletalliance and will no doubt continue to at #NSWP
