Cyclist, cat lover, adult human female. “All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights” -Universal Declaration of Human Rights 10.12.1948
Ann Widdecombe schools a roomful of woke students on the importance of free speech.
"Only two sorts of people oppose free speech... snowflakes and totalitarians."
"Nobody has the right to live their lives being protected from offence, or from insult, or from hurt feelings."
"It is an occupational hazard of living in society. And if you really can't take it, become a hermit."
"No matter how much we may disagree with somebody, we should defend to the hilt their right to say it."
"You succeed by defeating your opponent, not by wishing him away. You get nowhere by trying not to hear what is being said."
"You may feel virtuous today in what you will not hear, but tomorrow somebody may feel virtuous in not hearing what you have to say."
"Free speech is for all, not for the privileged few."
@freshbkgames@runthinkwrite If you could spell, that might help. But your illiterate take on a perfectly reasonable statement?! Humans cannot change sex. Thinking your personality changes your physical self in any tangible way, is plain dumb. A Human Rights org that ignores 51% of the population goes bust.
@MinnOrchia@LucyHunterB Only in your imaginery world where men become women because they say so. In the real world the grown ups are lawyered up and they mean business.
@jondrytay@MrsHenders4652 Context. You missed the context and went squarely for spite. What a POS you are. She wanted pregnant prisoners seen in a hospital, not an under equiped prison infirmary. Restraints to stop a prisoner escaping is logical.
@jk_rowling@WayneTurton Oh never stop, please. You and Julie Bindel do my heart such good. As for Fred, loved watching Peter attempting to limit his alcohol.
If you own a home with a mortgage, esp you young hard pressed first home buyers, then under hard left Identarian - men with penises and mental disorders in your daughter’s safe spaces - communist @top_nz on top of your interest payments you’ll be paying a 1.7% land value tax - calculate that on your home - plus they will bust the housing market so many of you will become utterly trapped in your home on negative equity, no moving on and trading up to a better home or family home. As well some or many of you will need to take in your parents as they will have no income to pay their LVT, no way into a retirement village as they have to cover what will be huge LVTs, and worse, it costs well over $100k pa now when granny needs to go into care, including the growing numbers in dementia care units, so imagine the blowout cost of care for care homes to cover their LVT - unless they move entirely to nursing slave labour from Asia (imagine the state of care then).
TOP will euthanise our economy.
So, why would any home owner, or sane person, vote @OpportunityNZ TOP? I’m fascinated to know.
Pass this on.
@Gaynotqueer1@Women___Exist Omg is that filthy rag not out of business yet??? I can give them every reason why, blinding obvious. But instead of telling the real unvarnished truth, PN pretends more “research” is needed. Disgusting
@rejserin@prof_curiosity1 Ha ha ha you are so funny. Yes enjoy your “own conception of self” the rest of us call it personality. And it does not change your sex. And law and policy will revert to sex based again. Bc reality.
@Shut_the_fridge@Mr_Andrew_Fox Except of course Hamas is a front for Iran. If you keep following the conspiracy theories it probably leads all the way back to “global elites drinking adrenochrome whilst shagging 6 yr old girls”. History is written by the victor and rewritten by Wikipedia
@dmclellan2024@KaskaJessica Well said! However logic does not come into this persons thinking, bc they are “trans common sense”. Absolutely did not care what these weird men did until they thought they could change the law and policy to give them access to to our sports and single sex spaces. Now it is FO
@WrathMary@WomenAreRealCAN@coachblade@MKorero The trouble with that is the Govt leaving it up to the Sports Orgs. They are captured. Or got sued to let men in the womens category ( looking at you Cycling NZ).
@BradfemlyWalsh@elonmusk@RampCapitalLLC Jeez i had forgotten they picked on Sheffield! Watched it. Terrifying. And then my Dad got posted to West Germany and our 4 min warning became just 2. So I thought ah stuff it we are all dead then, no need to worry! School there showed Where Eagles Dare instead!!!!
