ppl are joking that wizard book lady hasn't tweeted in a week because she's been consumed by the mold in her house, even though the likely truth that her lawyers told her to shut the fuck up because she's getting sued by the olympic boxer she baselessly insisted was a man is way funnier

Kirkcaldy reportback!

On Saturday the 18th of May 2024 a group of antifascist members of the community disrupted an event organised by Women Won't Wheesht in Kirkcaldy.

These people were workers, locals and members of the public. They were transgender, cisgender, gay and straight. They were unaffiliated with any organisation, group or political party. Their actions were their own and were organised on their own initiative. They acted to protect their community from an intolerant group who aim to plant a seed of cruelty, a seed of hate that would grow and overshadow everything around it, which would poison the earth and kill off wildflower and bramble and thistle alike.

"A community is made up of many different types of people," one member of the group said, "and what makes a community strong is celebrating the diversity of its members and standing in solidarity with those who need it most. Trans people are one of the most marginalised groups of people in society, and yet groups like Women Won't Wheesht seek to sow division in our local communities by painting trans people as a danger. Trans people are part of the fabric of our communities and groups like Women Won't Wheesht have no place in inclusive and safe communities. We all need to stand up against hate speech and protect our neighbours and friends."

Women Won't Wheesht is a hate group which peddles anti-transgender bigotry. Their events, veiled under vague 'concerns about women' have historically been attended by anti-abortion anti-feminist groups such as the Scottish Family Party, homophobes such as the Destiny Church, and members of the fascist Scottish Defence League. Their members also attended rallies organised by the neo-nazi Kelly Jay Keen.

Women Won't Wheesht's rhetoric calls for the elimination of drag queens, transgender and nonbinary people from public life. It is the same rhetoric which was used to murder members of the gay community during the AIDS epidemic. It advocates both social murder (murder by inaction from the state) and violence against transgender people. To achieve this, they bully and harass transgender people in society and online. They publicly share people's addresses and names. They accuse all transgender people of being sexual predators, thereby toxifying and dehumanising them so they are seen as less-than-human. They lobby politicians to spread their hate and appear legitimate.

The anti-transgender reactionary movement in the UK has been called explicitly genocidal by the Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention.

We, as proud members of our community, denounce all genocides and any who participate in them. We stand for a world where everyone has the right to speak their mind, where everyone has the right to be who they are. We stand for a world where gay, straight, brown, white, man, woman, and everything in between can live and love together. We cannot stand by and allow Women Won't Wheesht platform to spread hate and cruelty. We are fighting for a kinder, more caring world.

If the members of Women Won't Wheesht reach out to their local queer community, if they choose to talk, and listen, and learn, if they come with humility and gentleness, they will be greeted and welcomed with kindness and respect. We understand that many of those who come to join these movements have done so under a deception. They have been told that their alienation is not due to the United Kingdom's misogynist society and the social murder and violence of neoliberal capitalism, but due to transgender people existing. Many of us have been caught and deceived by such lies too. We have learned, and we have grown.

But if Women Won't Wheesht continue their campaign of violence, they will meet resistance. Their platform will be taken away, because it is by the grace of the people of Scotland that they have it in the first place, and the people of Scotland will not allow genocide of any kind.

At the action on Saturday, members of the public were overwhelmingly in support of transgender liberation.

One organiser said "People of all ages stopped to speak to the outreach team and expressed disgust at the transphobia from the Women Won't Wheesht incomers." Over one hundred trans flags were distributed to supportive people of Kirkaldy.

SOLIDARITY. LOVE AND KINDNESS.

ANTI-FASCISTS OF SCOTLAND.

Being given the option to choose a gift for my 5 year work anniversary like..

Do I choose the mens watch, or the Black & Decker cordless drill.

Totally not gay or anything.

i love the conspiracy spinning on twitter that jk rowling hasn't tweeted in a couple days because she's afraid of a lawsuit

because if there's one thing she's famous for it's shutting the fuck up when threatened

[360degreesasthecrowflies]

A fair and balanced review by Gemma Clark (Bella Caledonia) of the anti-trans screed 'The Women Who Wouldn't Wheesht', which reveals, unsurprisingly to anyone who's been paying attention, that the women in question despite claiming to be struggling outcasts are both suspiciously wealthy, materially comfortable, and suspiciously well-funded by foreign interests.

Archived version here in case it goes down.

Decided to rewatch Green Wing S2 before listening to the new audio series and i should have really anticipated getting my BIG FUCKING CRUSH on mac back

[thatssounrelatable]

I’m not sure which outcome would be funniest:

a) a bunch of trans-women trying to prove they can in fact queef

or

b) a bunch of “gender critical” cis-women trying to get #TranniesCantQueef trending

To those agreeing with what I say but saying I'm mean and "Let's just be nice" when we're discussing TRA things or feminism or J. K. Rowling... I am DONE being nice.

I was nice the first 100.000 times. Now I've been bombarded with private messages and Tumblr "post" (the envelope thingy) and general comments, plus seeing dozens of posts that I just can't be nice and patient about. Because these MORONS and some of them, actual TERRORISTS, are literary burning books, twisting the Harry Potter stories to justify their unjustifiable extremism, harassing children for being Potterheads, mocking adults for finding solace in Harry Potter, attacking and sending death threats and death wishes to everyone that disagrees with them, manipulating children, autistic, and also all kinds of mentally disabled people to absorb their agenda and mutilate their bodies, targeting the lives of people who disagree with them and attacking them and their loved ones, cyberbullying left and right hiding beneath anonymous names and pink and blue flags, burning and thrashing businesses where feminists go, turning Pride into an event where rapists are being allowed to take the mic and say to kill women (literally) and being applauded, saying homosexuality is transphobic and raping lesbians and gays, applauding men changing in locker rooms in front of little girls, applauding men taking over women's sports and spaces, applauding sending rapists to women's prisons, applauding children being brainwashed into life changing treatments, terrorising the world, imposing their own agenda with violence and threats, silencing and attacking the detrans community, manipulating the media, fucking it all up for all the normal trans people who are now thanks to the TRAS being seen as terrorists, and justifying their hatred and their violence on them having basically no reading comprehension, twisting people's words to have a pity party, and creating a self-imposed narrative to try and convince us that everyone wants them to die so it's all right for them to attack everyone else and be given free reign and justification to do so. Police can't even report that a criminal is trans any more and people are losing their jobs for reporting crimes by trans people, for fuck's sakes.

Do you know how often I've dealt with the same lazy justification to "explain" to me, a mixed race Jewish descent woman, why JK Rowling is anti semitic or racist? Or why she's transphobic? And every time one tries to nicely point out that they're twisting things and decontextualising them and inserting their own racist views, they just tell you to kill yourself. They've taken over press, media, social media, pride, women's spaces, they're going after children, attacking local pubs and restaurants... I'm not going to allow it. I'm done being nice.

I see them bullying the detrans community and shutting them up. I see how they harass and threaten the trans community that doesn't want to occupy women's spaces or that doesn't condone violence and threats and wants children to be left alone. I see how they attack women, lesbians and gays. I have a collection of articles of their rapes and other attacks, mainly to women. And they won't brainwash me.

I'm not afraid. These are a violent, terrorist mob that is taking over the left and making themselves the victims when we haven't faced a more aggressive and dangerous mob since the Nazis. Have you seen the videos of the teens and young adults crying in the US Congress, talking about how afraid they are when they see men changing in their lockers, or talking about how their breasts were chopped off and begging us, adults, to stop this nonsense? I have and I'm listening.

Like Joanne Rowling, like all the women who won't wheesht, I'm going to fight for those kids, for the normal people in the trans community, for detransitioners, gays, lesbians, mentally disabled... I'm not afraid and I'm not nice. Not any more. You want a fight? I'm full of weapons.

[cruelsister-moved2]

ableism is literally so predicated on class, I would rather be upper class wealthy and disabled than abled and poor especially when a lot of blue collar jobs are. literally disabling in themselves anyway & im SO tired of disability spokespeople who are white and wealthy and have family with the time and resources to support them, and how it warps the conversation around disability to focus on the most minor issues while ignoring the fact that most low income disabled ppl aren't even having their most BASIC needs met

[quinnfabrayapologist]

hands down the best proof i can give that the #letwomenspeak feminists who host the 'let women speak' rallies, where they let women speak about women's issues, are not real feminists who don't care about letting women speak, is that when i, a woman who is virulently pro trans on my twitter account, asked to speak at one of their rallies about issues that have affected me as a woman, they told me no lol.

I wonder what the exchange of the Fall Maiden powers looked like?

With Penny and Winter in Volume 8, the exchange of the Winter Maiden powers was a fully resolute decision. The torch was willingly passed within a white, peaceful void where everything outside stopped, giving the heroines an opportunity to exchange the powers as a gift with Penny's blessing,

But with Cinder and Amber, the Fall Maiden powers were initially split, and half of it was stolen illegitimately without a natural exchange (Natural being, exhanged during death). When the other half did make it to Cinder in Volume 3, it was right at the very moment the soul the powers were bound to was being transferred into Pyrrha. Another attempt at an illegitimate exchange.

The Fall Maiden powers were ripped in halves, and dragged between multiple hosts unnaturally. The final passing of the torch between Amber and Cinder must have looked like a broken, fragmented mess.
