The wing suit community got me banned from Twitter for saying "humans can't fly."

Oh sorry, no they didn't. Because humans can't fly, no matter how we try to mimic flight.

I’m currently reading Cynical Theories by Pluckrose and Lindsay and it’s becoming increasingly clear why we can’t discuss these issues with TRAs rationally- they have no rationality. The truth is how they wish to see it. We just have to desist from the brainwashing. Keep pushing back.

Its like the toddler (who at that age is unable to reason), saying things and repeating things that have no real meaning and deny material reality.

Its fine in a toddler - we can ignore them and teach them the truth as they get older.

In adults, its dangerous. As we see daily.

Mel, you might enjoy this Discussion with Benjamin’s Boyce and Heather Brunskell-Evans as they discuss the book you are currently reading.

investigate how big business such as Microsoft, IBM, Red Hat, Google, are behind the trans movement trying to destroy the control over Linux that the Copyleft organisations have over it. Look into the case of Richard Stallman who almost lost absolutely everything he had because of a few trannies that were backed by the big tech companies

He’s a member of Vox, so he’s the equivalent of France’s Front National or the BNP. They know what a woman is and they want her in the kitchen or the delivery room.

even more reason that they should not be censoring him. Tiktok banned Prager U the other day, youtube demonetized The Epoch Times...these left wing platforms are banning and silencing right wing voices and guess what? They consider GC ideology to be right wing, and lefties have referred to GC/radical feminists as "Nazi's" on multiple occasions and have justified assaulting and even killing women who are GC because we are 'right wing Nazi's'. These platforms should be politically neutral or get out of the game in my opinion...if they can repeatedly refuse to take down thousands of horrible graphic threats against GC feminists yet ban someone for stating basic biology then something is very wrong. The Left is adamantly non-supportive of GC feminism, thank goodness the right at least respects basic biology. What Niemoller warned about is happening but it's happening to the right right now, classical liberals should know when anyone is silenced we could very well be next.

That kind of sexism is easy to deal with.

The kind that denies biology is far more dangerous. It attacks the fundamental basis of humanity.

Suppose, Ian, that what you write is true. Can you see the logic that the most robust of organisations are those open to criticism and argument against them? The movements and organisations that started in the 19th and 20th century to get equality for women, and the movements that lead the the LGB community gaining wide acceptance, did that not in spite of the fact that they had opposition, but BECAUSE they had opposition and defeated it. Not quite the same thing with the trans movement, there's no debate there, no argument, no rationale, we just have to obey

I keep missing things out of my arguments, I meant to say that a healthy organisation is one which is open to criticism and opposition, but because of the strength of the logic behind it manages to gain wide acceptance. Even if he is a member of Vox, let him have his say. Eventually he will be politically defeated. I would prefer to defeat him with logic than silence him

does anyone remember that quasi celebrity whoever it was tweeting "normalize calling terfs cunts"? so that's not against their TOS but biology is? This is at the same time twitter is filing for dismissal of their child porn case because they think they are protected from litigation by section 230 even though the CSAM was repeatedly alerted on by the child and he told them he was underage, they still told him that it did not violate their "community standards". If we ever wanted to know what the morals of a transvestite predator are, they are twitters *actual* community standards.

You need to be careful with this one. While we agree on what he says, he does it for the wrong reasons.

Vox is a far-right fascist political party, ‘Hazte Oir’ (Which I believe is what partly appears behind) is a hard-core christian, homofobic far-right wing organisation.

Vox and Hazte Oir, pretty close to each other, have the paradox that while hating LGTB community, share same gender idea than the queers: ‘Men have to behave like men. Women have to behave like women’. The difference here is that Vox/Hazte Oir believe that is biology who defines the stereotype rather than the queer vision of feelings defining stereotypes.

Regardless of this similarity, spanish public opinion is very polarised and little critical to individual facts or single comments, thus they will consider progressive any stupidity a misogynistic beardy man with high heels, while they will consider backwards anything sprouted by the facial hole of these, regardless if for once in a million they are stating something with a link to reality.

The more they cancel the less credibility they have. All those left will be morons.
