why is everyone saying sinead "battled her own demons?"
she was one of very few brave enough to battle real demons: child predators, those who protected them in God's name, homophobia, greed that kills.....
she battled demons, yes- but they were us, not her.
BREAKING: Trans activist and reporter Shaneel Lal has been awarded Young New Zealander of the Year. Lal was instrumental in the banning of conversion therapy and bravely exposed the anti-trans circus which scurried away less than 24 hours after it arrived in Auckland. #auspol

@AmyMajor15@ryanator109@1NewsNZ I hear you, generally absolutely living your best life is the best thing we can do. I do think in some situations, history shows quietness equals silence which is the same as permission.
We are lucky in Aoreroa but I have friends from the US who are scared. Thanks for this convo
@AmyMajor15@ryanator109@1NewsNZ I agree be confident in who you are, being able to be who you are should be a given. People have other beliefs, but when it comes to dehumanizing and inciting harm, that's never going to be okay. Sometimes ignoring works but look at all the laws being passed in the U S.
@andriochty @zelandica@1NewsNZ It really is more than that though.
Again she said men should carry ... ( to use against Trans people). The reality is Trans people are way more in danger than anyone in bathrooms and public spaces.
@UDunningKruger@1NewsNZ It was juice.
Did you see the Nazi salutes in Melbourne. She advocated for Men to 'carry' ... and to go into bathrooms. (To police them.)
