Transgender hate crimes recorded by police go up 81%

That Reduxx article about Khelif is blatant lies and a horrific breach of medical ethics, but of course Rowling bought into it, and so did Mumsnet.

Lack of funding is what could destroy women's sports, not Banda, but JKR knows fuck all about football so she wouldn't know that. Meanwhile, loads of male footballers liked Memphis Depay's vile post defending Benjamin Mendy. Did JKR ever mention Mendy? Greenwood? Ronaldo? Goodwillie? Partey, who's still playing for Arsenal?
 
If they actually used their fucking brains for five minutes they'd realise there was something wrong. I mean, these people bring up GDPR all the time and France falls under the remit of GDPR, I do loads of medical translation work, French is one of my languages and so many companies have the big data disclaimer on their websites, and hospitals in particular have to do a big spiel about how they handle personal data. I should know, I've translated enough of them. Releasing Khelif's medical records is a serious breach of medical ethics and if someone at the Kremlin-Bicêtre hospital did that, they should be fired. Leaking medical records is a serious crime in France and can get you fined AND banged up. And this is assuming it even happened. Kremlin-Bicêtre is in Paris, not Algeria, and different names have been associated with the leak. It's not consistent. But no, it fits Mumsnet's narrative so they all believe it, same as they continue to believe their kids' classes are full of teens who think they're animals. Because if we let girls think they're boys, they'll be identifying as animals next. Slippery slope bullshit.

Someone posted more deets on Enough JK Rowling. And big surprise, JKR claims to be pro-Jewish but forgot the bit where the editor of Reduxx defended an actual fucking Nazi.
 
Ok, it's not a hate crime and Disney is more inclusive than others, but why erase the character's identity?

With all the transphobia, anti woke and anti DEI rhetoric emanating from the incoming US administration... perhaps this is a sign of what's to come? Companies being scared of showing support?


Of course, cynically speaking should always be wary of corporate support... but there are plenty of LGBTQ people in Disney who are passionate about inclusivity. And Disney didn't back down when Ron DeSantis went to war with them. What's changed?
 
It is so very Disney.

It is so corporate.

Most Disney people probably are fine with gay or trans stuff. Probably even think it is kinda worth having.

But not if it changes the bottom line

Especially as the movies are financially only advertising for the parks when it comes to make them money.


And when it comes to making money no gay or trans character is going to compete with micky or elsa or han solo.

They will promote and probably even enjoy gay days but they will never realky turkey try something that could seriously damage them.

Disney is the business version of your racist gran. Kinda hateful in practice but in a way that doesn't cause arguments around the dinner table.
