[Sport & Rights Alliance (SRA) @Sport_Rights]

🚨 The online abuse being directed at #Khelif & #YuTing is dangerous, misinformed + grounded in misogynistic, patriarchal stereotypes.

These women deserve dignity, respect & the right to play free from discrimination.✊

Today 56 UN Member States (a new record!) from all regions joined a statement led by @FinlandGeneva on a call to increase efforts to combat violence, harmful practices and discrimination against intersex persons. Another landmark on advancing #intersex human rights at the UN!

Indian authorities have blocked internet access for about 27 million people in the state of Punjab for a third straight day -- one of the country's most extensive blackouts in recent years -- as police search for a Sikh separatist on the run. https://t.co/B0hQlpJjjp

@JamesEsses No it’s not! According to ICD-11 it’s been removed as a mental health condition.

Hundreds of New York Times contributors and readers: We’re concerned that the anti-trans bias in your paper could have devastating effects, both on individuals and society as a whole.

The New York Times:

Take action now! Make your voice count!

[Human Rights Campaign Rapid Response @HRC]

The New York Times is contributing to transphobia and harm against trans people — and we need your help fighting back. Tell them you won't tolerate continued disinformation & attacks against trans people. Make your voice heard and send them a letter. https://t.co/s82UaTm32O

@JamesEsses @JamesEsses needs a history lesson! Homosexuality was a mental health condition until it was removed under ICD 10 by WHO! And guess who made it a mental health condition? Psychologists & Psychiatrists, who claimed it could be cured!

The right to strike and the right to peaceful assembly is fundamental for all!

Heard it all before...

[Scott Cuthbertson @ScotCuthbertson]

What they said,

Decriminalisation: Danger to other men

Repeal Section 28: Danger to children

Marriage Equality: Danger to the family

Ban conversion therapy: Danger to parents

Gender recognition: Danger to women

LGBTQ+ people have quite literally heard it all before.

@AD197704 @SilverSheWolf17 @JamesEsses You’re right I should calm down.

Calmly whispers “stop speaking for people of colour.”
