@daniellismore You know the gender critical position isn’t (for the most part) that transgender people don’t exist. It’s that they aren’t actually the sex they claim to be.

@LittleWingRae@Danielbrian94@GSpellchecker@JcanQueen If you can’t handle people disagreeing with your ridiculous arguments then perhaps don’t use ridiculous arguments. That way you won’t have to demean yourself and your position with threats of violence.

These new Hate Speech laws are horrifying. They can be applied arbitrarily to anyone the government of the day thinks is being 'hateful'.
We have seen how existing laws have been used to clamp down on reasonable debate on important issues.
These terrifying new laws go so much further... @FSUofAustralia@LiberalAus@LibertariansAus@OneNationAus@LNPQLD
