For decades in Ireland there's been cases of drug dealers & criminals who will appropriate the Republican struggle to legitimise their drug dealing/criminality. So, they'll operate under a banner like 'Real IRA' and wrap themselves in the Irish flag to give their law breaking the veneer of respectability. That's what cases like Alana McLoughlin reminds me of. He's hiding behind a trans flag to beat up women.

"My prediction is that one day, figures like Nancy Kelly and Michael Cashman will have to change their names to escape the disgrace of what they condoned."

I completely agree. And their posterity will be so ashamed of them, they will do anything not to have the relationship revealed.

Is the bit about Philip Pullman true? I never know what I can believe now.

Am deeply disappointed by the courts' decision in the Keira Bell case but they have little choice but defer to clinicians' expertise and they cannot stray beyond their remit. This is a matter of government oversight and political intervention but it will be a long haul battle as long as academia remains captured. Congrats to all who fought back, you got the conversation started.

Wesley Yang's latest substack is a good read for the kind of tactics that are used for institutional capture. These are very powerfula nd successful tactics and we have all been caught flatfooted.

That student, who called his lecturer “visibly queer” and made he/him cry with happiness, well what an absolute lickarse! I mean, that is really, really first class lickarsing! I bet that same student will name his first born child after his mother in law! And compliment his boss on his golf swing and LinkedIn posts! It’s impressive! I have to admit I’m impressed!

If you're not LGB, or post-op transsexual (with some exceptions), you're just a hetero with a fetish

* Asked this often what would men do to trans women in the toilets etc? I don't get any replies.

Very depressing that education is employing such utter feckwits who have dire NPD.

I'm going back into my cave for a while, to pretend that none of this is really happening....because I have this urgent need to swear, at the top of my voice, and throw things at the wall, very hard....PFFFFFFFFFT!

Has anyone else noticed that these people are almost always usually (being generous) not good-looking?

Is it Helena, or has Sprout Farts found another vulnerable woman to exploit? Even in a sea of horrible TRAs, he stands out as a particularly vile POS.

The Pullman incident was regarding his comparison of three female authors of colour to the Taliban for pointing out problematic parts of Kate Clanchy’s book. Clanchy has devoted her life to teaching and is loved by former students. She has helped refugees, and improved lives. However passages of her book were highly questionable. The Times reported the use of “almond eyes” and “chocolate skin” in an article about cancel culture, but chose to omit Clanchy’s descriptions of nose sizes, skull shapes etc and her attitudes towards working class and disabled students. Her teaching record speaks for itself, but I’d be really hurt if I was one of those students who’d been so described. Pullman’s tweet led to a Twitter pile on by racists towards the three women who’d pointed it out.

Only Connect absolutely killed me on Monday. Laugh or cry!? 🤣🤣 If I'd known he was a straight guy, I'd have really lost it!

Susie Q's response to Laurie Penny is one of the best I've ever seen. I expect Susie's still waiting for an answer.
