@Renee_PLP Really? Call me what you want- I will keep fighting for women and girls for our own sex based spaces . I am a female inclusionary feminist. This is not about trans anything. This is about the right to privacy, safety and fairness. For females.

The bottom line is, women do not want nor are we asking for men to protect us, we’re asking for men to stop being the thing we need protection from. I can’t make it any clearer.

@daveatherton This should be the stance from all states. I have no beef with muslims but they must not be allowed to override existing state laws.

Women in Afghanistan are being obliterated—no voice, no face, no existence. The Taliban’s latest decrees are nothing short of barbaric: women banned from singing, reciting poetry, or even speaking aloud in public. Their faces and bodies must hidden from the world.

This isn’t just an Afghanistan tragedy; it is a stain on the global conscience, brought about by our failure to act.

That’s them a point ahead - should we even beat Dundee midweek

We don’t beat them at Parkhead, it’s not happening

They won’t drop a single point for rest of the season

We’ve chucked it away today. Totally chucked it

She is a hater. I watched you when you were in your prime and you were fit and athletic but did NOT look like a man. You were a great, well fit, athlete that took your tennis career serious and you were successful because of that. You were a joy to watch and best of health to you.

If you’re thinking of throwing your vote away this year to “punish the Dems”, you already tried that in 2016 and this is where we are

There are two people who have a chance to be the next president

If Biden loses he will go to his beach house in Delaware with his wife and grandkids and live out his golden years.

You’re not punishing him; you’re punishing yourself. Biden will have passed away while you’re still having your rights stripped away one by one by extreme right christofascist loons

Gaza will be leveled. Trump is on tv THIS WEEK saying he supports Israel “finishing the job”

Taiwan will be taken by China

Ukraine taken by Russia

NATO weakened considerably

Muslim Americans rounded up and deported

Hispanic Americans rounded up and deported

Zero chance at universal healthcare

But please carry on with your “protest” as you shoot yourself in the foot to “punish” an 81 year old man who doesn’t need this shit, but is doing it to protect you from Trump, and apparently yourselves

I used to think it was wrong for Israel to be killing tens of thousands of Gazans with airstrikes and starving hundreds of thousands with siege warfare, but then Israel apologists informed me that some Palestinians did mean things to Israelis in the past, so now I support it.

What Israel is doing in Gaza would only be unethical if everyone in Gaza were a perfect little cherub who’d never committed any violence or done anything wrong ever. I could see getting upset if the IDF was raining military explosives upon a giant concentration camp full of squishy marshmallow-like beings made of pure love and conceived without original sin who do nothing but coo and sing lullabies all day, but in reality the concentration camp is populated by beings who are not nearly that perfect.

I hear people calling this a genocide, but that’s ridiculous. What’s been explained to me is that the assault on Gaza is completely different from all the genocidal massacres you’ve read about in history, because the Israelis believe what they are doing is right. See, this time the ones who are carrying out the mass-scale extermination programs and ethnic cleansing plans have reasons for doing so.

As we all know, in a proper genocide the perpetrators have no reasons for carrying out their mass extermination programs and ethnic cleansing plans; they do it solely because they are evil and like doing evil things. In a proper genocide the perpetrators historically spend most of their time cackling like cartoon supervillains and talking about how delightfully evil their genocidal actions are.

This isn’t like that at all. You see, the Israelis sincerely feel that the population they are eliminating is very bad, and they believe removing that population will make the land a much better and safer place to live. They see the Palestinians as a major problem, and, unlike a proper genocide, they are simply trying to find a solution to that problem which will be permanent and final.

So when you see Israel apologists defending Israel’s actions in Gaza, please try to keep in mind that they’re just helpfully explaining that the Israeli government has reasons and motives for doing what it’s doing, and that it believes what it is doing is correct. If this were a proper genocide, that wouldn’t be the case.

You’ve seen what genocide looks like. It looks like Nazis rounding up Jews and killing them. Are the Israelis wearing swastikas? Are the Palestinians Jewish? No? Okay then. That proves this cannot possibly be a genocide, because if it was, it would look exactly the same as a previous historical instance of genocide in every conceivable way. It’s not even the early 1940s right now, it’s a completely different time period. Like, duh.

So relax. Everything is fine. This isn’t a genocide, and if it is, we can read about it in our history books later on and be sure to get it right next time.

@maddyoby Absolutely spot on!
