Because Putin is a big JKR supporter and Russia hates trans people. Mind you, it's not much fun for cis women but your average TERF won't care about that.
Disabled people also getting far more shit now than they did a few years ago. And disabled people are a traditional enemy of Nazis as are trans people (all LGBT+ people in fact).
First and foremost, people with intellectual disabilities. It's rarely in the news but they're already treated like shit and often the last to be considered even in ~disability rights~ circles.
Yeah, think ODW was her only or at least her main pre-crank book, but think she was part of that whole Fisher/Reynolds blogging scene, wrote various articles and things - I remember this being really good, for instance. And I've got a Freedom Press collection of anti-work essays that she did an intro for, so there's an answer to a niche pub quiz question about "what links Freedom Press with Mein Kampf?" She was very involved with the 2010-era anti-fees stuff as well.

Anyway doesn't really matter, obviously if you found it valuable fair enough!
Yep. I'm autistic, I identify as disabled. Mate crime is apparently on the increase with autistic people.
Have to say this is my experience of M*msnet, on which I lurk but don't post.
here's a thread on there which is basically personal abuse aimed at me, and none of it remotely accurate, or rooted in any kind of reality. Lots of insinuating that i'm a pedo or a rapey male by people i've never even met.
All of Russia?
it says nothing of the sort
similar issues also explain the different patterns in ages of coming out of those who are not (diagnosed or do not meet the diagnostic criteria) neurodiverse and their abilities or otherwise at masking plus learned behaviours etc.
Christian Concern don;t go for winnable they go for maximum painting themselves as victims , they;ve lost so many cases i nthe past usuually those where people get sacked for evangelising , but they also put up Contranthe to represent ' Keira' Bell in the case against GIDS that got overturned at appeal
