@KonstantinKisin Worse. When you spend ten years telling them that a problem exists, they just ignore you. That isn't pretending it doesn't exist, that is consciously approving the problem. It might be implicit approval rather than tacit approval, but they are deliberately embedding problems.
@tomgordonLD You do know that it was far-left, 'Cultural Marxists' who started, and waged the culture war, don't you?
Don't blame the rest of us for wanting to defend Western civilisation, it is way better than what you are trying to impose.
The people who belittle major concerns as just 'culture war' issues are invariably those on the side that started said war. It is in their interests to make out that the 'culture war' is trivial and not their fault.
It is existential to Western civilisation.
Get defending.
@KaskaJessica No, men cannot produce breast milk. Whatever it is that gets discharged from male nipples, it is not milk. Regardless of the extent of gynecomastia arising from exogenous hormones, the milk producing organs just are not there.
Britain had a moment of silence for George Floyd. Our politicians kneeled en masse to show their outrage at his killing. "I can't breathe" became a slogan.
George Floyd died on the other side of the world. He wasn't British.
Henry Nowak *was* British and his treatment by the police was shocking and negligent in the extreme. Yet there is no minute of silence. There is no coordinated public campaign. There is no kneeling at sporting events.
And we all know why.
During the summer of BLM, some people said "All Lives Matter". This was treated as the highest form of racism and anyone who said this was immediately cancelled. Why? Because the people in charge don't actually think all lives matter in the same way.
They have created a racial hierarchy of victimhood where a career criminal who died through mistreatment by police in a foreign country with 0 evidence of racism like George Floyd is automatically sanctified because of the colour of his skin.
And Henry Nowak, a British man, one of ours, is automatically dismissed and ignored because of the colour of his.
This is the ugly fruit of so-called "anti-racism", an obsession with race that has created a two-tier society which treats people differently because of the colour of their skin.
This needs to stop.
Outstanding and accurate speech in Parliament today regarding the Henry Nowak case.
Racist policies must be removed from the police force, as well as our nation as a whole.
The nonsense that came after BLM 2020/21 must be reversed. Do you agree?
@tomgordonLD Would you like to explain exactly what you mean by 'trans rights are human rights'?
It sounds like a vacuous slogan to me, but maybe it has hidden depths.
In the meantime, we should do all we can to help people who claim to be the opposite sex to come out of their delusion.
@JournalismSEEN@Jonathan_Hinder I really like Jonathan, he can think straight. I might be a Thatcherite, but I'd find room for a mind like his in my party.
Totally fascinating clip. The π that @Jonathan_Hinder gives Derbyshire, as she actively works to get him to describe βtrans rightsβ as a βmiddle class hobby horseβ - which would be quite a gotcha - followed by her disconcerted silence when he just says βmenβ instead.
She knew exactly what he was thinking of, and he knew exactly what she was doing. But the work on renormalising natural language has paid off. A couple of years ago he would have had to say βtransβ in some form, or βgenderβ, to describe events. Now he can just say βmenβ and the power of that language trickery drains away completely.
@NadiaWhittomeMP It is MPs like you who bring Parliament into disrepute far more than the venal, the corrupt, and the louche.
We must end the reverence given to transgenderism - in middle-aged men it is a fetish, in adolescents it is sexual corruption by others. Switch on, or resign.
It's almost too excrutiating to watch. But watch we must & we must not look away. We must hear those cruel last words Henry heard. And recognise: this is what happens when police/state agencies become completely discombobulated by mandated EDI identitarian victim politics on race
@elenoresturko It is the 'trans community' who hate our kids. Want to turn them into toys to play with, or icons to validate their own delusions. Enough. We need to shame these despicables, not give them their own crosswalks.
