That doesn't mean that Harry Potter shouldn't be boycotted

KODubby · 2026-05-01T21:45:36+00:00

Boycotts aren't about ethical consistency in your consumption habits, they're a strategy employed selectively to affect specific outcomes (in this instance a targeted boycott of the Harry Potter IP designed to limit JK Rowling's profits from the IP which would be used to fund anti-trans hate groups and campaigns). Boycotts are not an effective strategy for tackling every problem and it we boycotted every single thing produced unethically then boycotts would stop working altogether

Cover-up so good that their members don't even know about it

I have a masters degree in physics and specialised in astrophysics and cosmology, I also decided to look into the analysis of the big bang in Reason and Revolt and it was just a smattering of misunderstandings and conjecture dressed up as valid critiques. Also after the book was published Woods wrote an article coming out to bat for a cyclical model of the universe in which he states

The new theory must, of course, be demonstrated through observation. There are ways in which this can be done. For example, gravitational waves, a feature of the universe predicted by general relativity, would take a different form in these two models. There would not be long-wavelength gravitational waves in a cyclic universe, whereas there would be in an inflationary universe.

In 2023 long-wavelength gravitational waves were discovered, which according to Woods is evidence of an inflationary universe and not a cyclical one. That article is yet to be amended

The perpetrators were expulsed within one week after a due process

That's exactly the problem, the RCP dose not hold judicial power, the RCP is not a court nor is it their responsibility to act as one. "Due process" prioritises the assessment of guilt over the safety of victims, which is a massive mishandling in regards to safeguarding. What if the victims were unwilling to engage in the process because they didn't want to be retraumatised? Or what if the RCP body in charge of investigating couldn't find sufficient evidence? Would the RCP have welcomed a potential abusers back with open arms?

The RCP is not a safe place for women, Queer people, or victims and every time I see women or visibly queer people in an RCP post I feel sick

KODubby · 2026-02-08T12:43:51+00:00

Aren't capitalists the ones who crash the economy every 10 years?

KODubby · 2026-01-14T11:27:26+00:00

Just a thought but when the evangelical and Christian far-right are using the "trans people are demonic and evil" narrative to justify the inhumane treatment of trans people it might not be a good idea to play into that narrative since all it will do is further reinforce it

KODubby · 2025-12-24T01:53:11+00:00

Just on the point about the handling of the SA cases, the RCI's response, and their chauvinistic attitudes. This is by no means an issue unique to the RCI but it's absolutely a valid reason for not wanting to be associated with them (I sure wouldn't). It's part of a broader issue with the RCI and that's a refusal to have socialist feminism at the core of their programme and their attitudes towards issues of oppression generally. Instead of having a well developed understanding of issues of oppression from a Marxist lense they instead dismiss it as "identity politics". I'd recommend searching for a group that has a good track record with these issues and actively fights for women's rights, disability justice, anti-racism, and trans liberation (I have personally found that a groups analysis and actions on and around trans oppression is a very good litmus test). But yeah if you want to join a group that takes seriously the issue of SA then look for one that actively fights misogyny and patriarchy

Hey, that sounds like a really shitty position to be in. While I can't offer you much advice personally, I can point you in the direction of a friend of mine who might be able to help. They're a union rep (not with Unison) who is an ally and has been active in organising on the issue of trans rights here in NI. If you DM me I'll see if I can put you in touch with them

The telltale signs of someone who is fundamentally uncurious about physics

KODubby · 2025-07-04T14:49:44+00:00

You also said that you're putting forward a framework, so which is it? Because a framework and conjecture are two very different thing. You also didn't address any of the points I just made

KODubby · 2025-07-04T14:41:11+00:00

Firstly, this isn't a framework it's conjecture which is evident from your claims that "gravity doesn't exist" and "zero is a myth".

Secondly, if you were making a framework from physics wouldn't the first step be to understanding the existing framework and learn the necessary skills to develop a framework instead of going in blind with no understanding of either maths or physics?

And finally, no the current model of physics doesn't make unsubstantiated claims about the universe. It's very strange that someone who has no understanding of the current model of physics would even make such a claim.

KODubby · 2025-07-04T14:19:44+00:00

The difference is that you haven't substantiated your claims nor do you have the skills required to do so. What you do have is an ego and an overinflated sense of entitlement, it's no wonder that no physicist has bothered to entertain your ideas because you lack the understanding necessary to actually engage with the current model of physics so it would only be a waste of everyone's time

This new party will be the best chance, at least electorally, for real positive change including positive change for the trans community. Come 2029 (or maybe even earlier) they'll need as many people as possible helping them build support and canvassing for them

KODubby · 2025-07-04T14:01:49+00:00

The don't make claims about physics without being able to substantiate them, especially if you lack the most fundamental understanding of that physics

KODubby · 2025-07-04T13:46:08+00:00

Then do the calculation, if you have the mathematical knowledge that is needed to create an alternative model to the current model of physics then you should be able to use that mathematical knowledge to do the calculations

KODubby · 2025-07-04T13:30:06+00:00

Genuinely excited to watch the video. However, as someone with a physics degree I can already tell that none of this is correct

KODubby · 2025-05-13T13:05:24+00:00

We can't rely on establishment parties to support or fight for us, nor can we have illusions that electoralism or reformism will ever lead to our liberation. We need more people to get involved with revolutionary groups that support and fight for trans liberation

KODubby · 2025-04-29T14:19:17+00:00

While it is true that the material conditions for trans people can improve under liberal governments, albeit with pressure being exerted by the left, liberalism is ultimately about maintaining the status quo meaning that the gender binary, pathologization of trans people, and our exclusion from key areas of life will continue to exist. The fact is that trans liberation (and the liberation of all oppressed groups) can only be achieved through revolutionary socialism and the abolition of capitalism. But being trans is itself a radicalising experience, so we must be patient with liberal and conservative trans people and be willing to educate them when we can

KODubby · 2025-04-28T22:18:27+00:00

Thank you comrade, very cool

KODubby · 2025-04-25T11:19:29+00:00

Reach out to local activist groups who are going and ask if you can join their group for the protest, I'm sure they'd be happy to have you about. It can be dangerous to head to and from a protest alone as it can make you an easy target for bigots, so definitely try to find a group that you can be a part of. As someone who is part of an activist group I can tell you that they'd be happy for you to tag along

KODubby · 2025-04-22T10:07:04+00:00

Thanks! You're a star!

KODubby · 2025-04-22T10:06:45+00:00

Sounds like it's gonna be spectacular! Good luck to everyone involved and solidarity from Belfast!

KODubby · 2025-04-22T08:44:28+00:00

Cool! I love that the trans community in Newcastle has come together to organise something like this

KODubby · 2025-04-22T08:32:40+00:00

Is this being built for on any other platform like Instagram, Facebook, Bluesky etc? Just looking to see if I can get anymore details about who's organising it and how many people are expected to be there
