The Murder Tweets of Paris Lees
BBC's 'exciting new voice' sure tweets a lot about murdering people
The BBC recently announced a new drama inspired by the memoir of trans-identified male Paris Lees. Lees, who will also serve as a writer and executive producer on the series was described by Lindsay Salt Director of BBC Drama as ‘an exciting new voice in UK television’. Filming on the series is expected to take place in 2024.
There are certain things one expects to see from trans rights activists on Twiotter.
You can expect to find tweets praising Mermaids, the ‘trans kids’ charity currently under a statutory inquiry.
You can expect to find tweets marking women defending their rights as TERFs.
You can expect to find tweets equating black women to men identifying as women.
You can expect to find tweets respecting the ‘gender identity’ of rapists.
You can expect to find tweets smearing people concerned with child safeguarding as dangerous.
You can expect to find tweets about disregarding women's boundaries.
You can expect to find tweets endorsing men in women's sports.
You can expect to find tweets advocating for men to be placed in women's prisons.
What you don’t expect is multiple tweets about murdering people.
And here is Lees tweeting about parents not affirming trans-identified children while making a gun symbol.
Would it be impolite to ask why Paris Lees was in prison?
Did it have anything to do with violent crime?
The mission of the BBC is "to act in the public interest, serving all audiences through the provision of impartial, high-quality and distinctive output and services which inform, educate and entertain".
Is the BBC fulfilling its mission?
The Male Violence is such a give away isn't it.
“What It Feels Like For A Girl To Be Erased By A Sick Male ‘Rights’ Movement” is the programme BBC actually should be making. My prediction? This disturbed man, who fantasizes about murder, will never get his show off the ground. The public has no appetite for this. It’s a no go. And to think the cultists at BBC are spending hard earned taxpayer money on an opportunistic criminal, and selling it as cutting edge human rights!
