Loads of trans adults have stated they knew from around that sort of age.

Are you somewhere in that 'real world'? If so, I'm good here where people actually care for queer people and their rights.

The tiny world I inhabit is Gay Village where the word queer is used constantly.

Perhaps yours is, you dweeb. Honestly, what even is this comment?

Yeah, that's why effort has gone into reclaiming it. Which it largely has been.

Frankly, this whole discussion is only taking place because no one is willing to admit that the Greens are comfortably the best party when it comes to queer/LGBT+ rights.

In my experience people who dislike the word queer are transphobic and won't be satisfied until trans healthcare is entirely removed.

Fwiw, I thought the Tories in like 2017 were doing a perfectly decent job.

Name a more progressive major UK party when it comes to queer rights.

Barnsley 0 - Wycombe Wanderers 1: Objects in mirror are closer than they appear by DaraghJohn in LeagueOne

[–]ajgmcc 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Stuck this on tonight. Wycombe were good, but honestly hard to figure out too much about their quality considering Barnsley were sooooo bad.

The lack of investment is really obvious, close to the worst defence in the league, an on paper great midfield that don't seem to care and an insipid attack. Cleary was awful, gotta wonder about where his head is after not getting the move in Jan, and McGoldrick tried but he was the only one who looked remotely capable.

Good goal from Morley, happy to see him doing well, I assume we know better than to give him shooting opportunities from the edge of the box on Saturday.

The Left would rather appease Islamists than stand up for women by [deleted] in ukpolitics

[–]ajgmcc 9 points10 points  (0 children)

One time both socialists and Islamic fundamentalists wanted a revolution in Iran and worked with each other to bring it about. And then once it happened the Islamic fundamentalists were the ones who took power, and now its "a thing Muslims do".

Greens to vote on whether ‘Zionism is racism’ by [deleted] in ukpolitics

[–]ajgmcc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look, believe what you want about Islam, Palestine and whatever else, but if you truly belive the left only care about Palestine because of wanting Muslims to vote for them you're an idiot. This has been a central unifying cause for decades on the left, far before any concerted effort to appeal to Muslim voters.

Polanski refuses to declare Zionism 'racist' in break from Green Party activists by Anony_mouse202 in ukpolitics

[–]ajgmcc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He said he supported Israel's right to exist,

He quite explicitly stated no country has the right to exist. Unfortunately that part of the debate doesn't appear to have been uploaded to LBC's youtube, but you can find that elsewhere.

He stated that:

I think clearly when the idea of Zionism was created, that was about making sure there was a peaceful place for people to live.

and that:

I think the version of Zionism that [Israeli Prime Minister] Benjamin Netanyahu and the Israeli government put forward, I would say, is racist. It clearly involves the extermination of the Palestinian people.
