I'm sorry but "we went too far in fighting racism" is not a take I consider serious from absolutely anyone who considers themselves on the left so long as mass incarceration, the eviction crisis, the school to prison pipeline, educational segregation, lead water pipes, and the economic draft exist.

Iβm work in healthcare IT, Iβm an F1 fan, tech nerd and ballet dancer.
Iβm also a wife and a mum.
I do no harm to anybody, I just want to live out my life in peace.
But Labour want me eradicated because I happen to be trans.

Hackney council wants proof that a disabled & autistic child melts down on public transport - so they're going to force him onto public transport and watch. And they're STILL trying to evict this boy & his family from their council home. Is this abuse...? www.katebelgrave.com/2026/03/prov...

British politics, more than any other, has an unrivalled streak of paternalism where marginalized people are easily dehumanized as spoilt children who must be sternly punished and managed and whipped into shape.
Our advocacy is simply seen as as tantrums.

Like for me the fundamental question isn't even "Does trans healthcare directly prevent suicides in a mechanistic way?" but "Why are institutions okay with trans kids being so miserable that they're saying they wish they were dead?"

Team Scottish Refugee Council take on Kiltwalk 2026!
To raise crucial funds and awareness of our work supporting those rebuilding their lives here in Scotland, our team have decided to take on the 23 mile Kiltwalk challenge!
The Labour government are making the asylum system even more inhumane for people seeking safety.
Im joining 28 colleagues to walk the 23 mile Kiltwalk in April to raise funds to help us meet the increased demand for our services.
Please support us if you can βπΎ
Thank you π

But what can I do β Dr Ruth Pearce
Posts about But what can I do written by Ruth
There are two things you can do right now to support young trans people in England.
1) Engage in political advocacy and community support. I've got *loads* of advice on this in my blog post and zine "But what can I do? How to fight the trans panic".

I'm almost jealous of people who can continue to enjoy, like, Guardians of the Galaxy after finding out what a horrible piece of shit Chris Pratt is IRL.
My brain just doesn't work that way. I sit there thinking 'oh yeah this guy wants me and my loved ones dead' for 122 minutes. Can't recommend it.

It's particularly upsetting as a rape survivor to see my suffering weaponised to justify these authoritarian measures. Measures which won't do anything to end sexual violence, but which will put individual liberty at greater risk from the state.

any democrat who considers fighting back against the persecution and eradication of transgender ppl as 'controversial' deserves to be told by the electorate to go fuck themselves.
trans ppl are a primary target of contemporary fascism. if you're not fighting for trans ppl you are a nobody.
