What if TERFs and transphobes get their wish: transition gets banned, we all have to use facilities related to our sex assigned at birth, and trans folk get forcibly detransitioned?

The Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention has issued red flag warnings regarding the UK's current anti-trans activity. When I talk about the genocidal component of anti-trans actions I'm routinely laughed at, but this is an organisation solely dedicated to identifying and highlighting genocidal actions; what more confirmation do people need?!

Sharing my wife's write up on the Supreme Court's "ruling", and the EHRC's interim guidance following our attendance at Trans+ Solidarity Alliance's Mass Loby:

The Supreme Court ruling and the EHRC interim guidance โ€” key issues and recommendations

This was initially sent to my MP and is aimed at politicians in the UK but also works for people looking to understand the issues and what we could be advocating for. I hope you find it useful! Theโ€ฆ

My wife did a deep dive on the Supreme Court Ruling on the definition of sex and is doing a write-up on it.

It's amazing what stuff seems to have slipped past the general discourse.

For instance, it also defines a lesbian!

It claims that only people assigned female at birth are capable of being defined as lesbians.

This seems like a massive overreach, but I suppose the whole thing is.

The Fire Brigades Union going hard against the Supreme Court Ruling. For all that it's been awful, the support I've seen has been appreciated.

We know that the law is not always on the right side of history. The Supreme Court ruling last month does not make public spaces safer for anyone.

Ok, so I've pretty much given up on my country of birth which is #america

My 2nd country of citizenship, the #uk is slipping into dangerous #amerikkka #fascism with the monstrous #uksupremecourtruling on #transrights.

#Canada election results made me so happy! I still worry about the amount of people that practically voted to be the #51ststate ๐Ÿ˜ฌ #elbowsup

Now, #Australia, it's your turn! I know you can do it! Here's to a successful 3rd of May! We're counting on ya! #solidarity

I was switching instances before this as my situation dictates I need a supportive community in that regard. As a trans woman, I'm marginalised, ridiculed and used as a political pawn. See #wokeagenda and #uksupremecourtruling.
I'm disappointed in the comments that I see about this is a FOSS instance not politics. If the FOSS community is that short sighted then feel free to block me and move on. I'll miss Fosstodon but not the #broligarchy and I don't mean everyone btw.
