@Nick3lBets @OGBlackRedGuard Self id is not a right. It is a demand. Women have rights. And women do not want their rights eroded which self id would accomplish that rollback.

@DD_Geopolitics The translation shows he doesn't deny war crimes transpired. But that those crimes were used to commit crimes against Serbia. Doesn't quite say the charges of genocide were false.

🇮🇷🇷🇸 THIS IS HUGE!!!!!! BREAKING: Ambassador of Iran to Serbia, His Excellency Rashid Hasan Pour Baei said in his interview that the WAR CRIME that happened in Srebrenica and that presentation of the Serbs as genocidal is absolutely FALSE and with political intentions. He said that those who initiated that UN resolution committed more genocides than anyone else. Thank you Iran we love you Iran!!!!

@HalimaNyomi @razaobaid So you're saying he is not an anti-imperialist? Have you seen George Galloway's videos on Iran? He has great takes on imperialism and lambasts the US and Israel for their cowardly and brazen aggression.

not necessarily, I’m just questioning the narrative and inviting others to look at the holes. Open to different perspectives 🤷🏽‍♀️ Khamenei’s support base was waning inside Iran because of the failure of the Axis, making him a “martyr” is useful for the IRGC’s position, as well as for Netanyahu’s waning internal support for failing in his war on Gaza.

When leaders of Hamas were killed, we saw images. When Saddam was killed, we watched it live, and the same with Gaddafi. Khamenei has been screaming “Death to America” “Death to Israel” for 30+ years, you’d think US/Israel would want to ‘show off’ his death more than anyone…

@HalimaNyomi @razaobaid I don't understand what you're questioning. That he's not dead? He knew the risks of staying above ground in the capital precisely because of the consequences it would invite should the US and Israel be brazen enough to take him out.

@racket_2023 @razaobaid because of a collective announcement. It’s still not the same as all the aforementioned individuals, and I’m just saying it’s suspicious. Why do you think that is?

@razaobaid I mean do you believe they killed Osama Bin Laden just before Obama’s re-election? Trump was becoming unpopular after Epstein. Ayatollah was becoming increasingly insufferable inside Iran amongst the IRGC because of the fall of the Axis. So making him a “martyr” is a win-win🤷🏽‍♀️

Many of you will remember Suleiman Al Obaid, the Palestinian football legend killed last year. His widow and five children are still in Gaza, living in extremely difficult conditions. Suleiman was their only support. Please donate if you can, and share: chuffed.org/project/145216…

The Libyans were gaslighted into believing that NATO intervention was a start to their liberation. They cheered and others who didn't understand just sat idle waiting to see the "outcome". Nigerians are just replicating this vital error. That's national suicide. SMH.
David Hundeyin@DavidHundeyin

Whatever will be will be. Whatever happens, I will never regret believing in Nigeria - the Nigeria that funded African independence struggles and absorbed bullets intended for the entire continent , not the useless version of Nigeria that bombs neighbours on behalf of France, and is ruled by a drug dealer who is being blackmailed by at least 2 foreign intelligence agencies. If Nigeria is home to too many catastrophically stupid people to avoid the destruction that is increasingly looking inevitable in its immediate future, I still have no regrets for believing in the potential that I witnessed with my own 2 eyes. Whether my people are terminally flawed or not, they're still my people. The demise of Nigeria would only slow down Africa's rise, but not destroy it. Projects like the AES are evidence that Africa will regain its place in the world of the future, whether Nigeria will be part of that future or not. Africa will be fine, with or without Nigeria. And if we disappear, I hope our Sahelian brothers inherit our land and become better custodians of it than we were. I will always still love my people, even though they don't love themselves. You can't choose your family. It is what it is.

@broadwaybabyto No, women aren't ok with this. Not the anti racist ones anyway. The principle of single sex spaces remains one worthy of defending though.

Why isn’t anyone speaking out about men being in women’s safe spaces now? ICE agents bust into a women’s washroom and demand she “pull up her pants”. This is despicable and clearly done as a show of force, nothing more.
WarMonitor@TheWarMonitor

ICE agents illegally entered a woman’s bathroom at a New York nutrition bar plant, telling her to “pull up your pants.” They only had a warrant to review employer records, not to search for, detain, or arrest workers.

I don't "believe" anything. Sex is not binary. It's not binary genotypically. It's not binary phenotypically. And it never will be. I have no political or emotional feeling about that, it is simply a fact...

@rivkahbrown Do you think vulnerable women should be forced to share spaces with males a la when female patients request female only hospital wards? The Equalities Act defends women only single sex spaces. Why won't you?

a purported conflict between pro-trans people's beliefs and/or trans people's gender reassignment status and women's sex, none of these protected characteristics takes precedence under the Equality Act.

@NoAimNoGain @cpsjr97 She isn't talking about physical transformation here. She's talking about the mentality and the behaviours male actors adopt to allegedly give greater weight to their performance when they could just act.

@cpsjr97 Meryl Streep lost 20+ pounds and learned multiple languages for roles, lived in character, and used intense physical transformation—yet is still praised as a genius. Hilary Swank starved herself for Boys Don’t Cry and trained like a boxer for Million Dollar Baby. (1/2)

@sappholives83 Are you triggered when the perps are Muslim or are you this outraged when the perps are white?

A German court has given a woman a harsher sentence for calling a r*pist a pig than the sentences which were handed out to 8 Muslim men who gang-r*ped a 15 yr old girl in a park in 2020. Maja R., 20, spent a weekend in jail for calling one of the attackers a “disgraceful r*pist pig.” Meanwhile, 8 of the 9 adult men convicted of the brutal assault of the 15 yr old were given suspended sentences by judge Anne Meier-Goering because they were under 20 at the time of the attack, even though she noted her dismay that “none of the defendants said a word of regret.” Only one man spent any time in jail, although it’s not clear why — a 19 yr old Iranian who, speaking of the r*pe, asked the court, “What man doesn’t want that?” A court spokesman has described the anger over the court’s decisions as “a targeted attack on the rule of law.” Speaking for myself, however, laws that punish insults more harshly than the gang rape of a child deserve to be attacked - and judges who hand out suspended sentences for rape should be removed from the bench and banned from practicing law ever again.

@damian_from She didn't expel members before the conference. Nor did she put out a statement timed during her QT appearance attacking the other side inside YP. If anything these events helped decide the conference outcome. You can't blame her for that.

@FashionableRes1 @Rainmaker1973 The paper didn't make such explosive claims as this post does such as genes being switched off and that cancerous cells suddenly became non-cancerous. The paper's findings were changes in biomarkers were observed not that cancer was cured as this post suggests.

Just 28 days without parabans and phthalates turned off breast cancer genes. Researchers followed a group of healthy women who routinely used common personal-care products containing parabens and phthalates—chemicals found in everything from shampoo and lotion to makeup and fragrance. These compounds can act like estrogen in the body, and excess estrogen-like activity has long been tied to higher breast-cancer risk. For 28 days, 36 women did one simple thing: they switched to paraben- and phthalate-free alternatives. No drugs, no diet changes—just cleaner cosmetics and toiletries. The results were striking: urine tests confirmed that levels of the chemicals’ breakdown products plummeted, proving exposure had been sharply reduced. But the bigger revelation came from breast-tissue biopsies taken before and after the switch. In just four weeks, the women’s breast cells began behaving less like precancerous or cancerous cells. They regained the ability to respond to normal “cell-death” signals (a safeguard tumors often disable). Protective estrogen receptors, which are typically shut down in breast cancer, switched back on. Gene-expression patterns shifted away from high-risk profiles and toward healthier patterns. This is the first human evidence that routine exposure to these everyday chemicals can nudge normal breast cells in a cancer-like direction—and, crucially, that removing the exposure can begin to reverse the process remarkably quickly. It’s not definitive proof that changing your body wash will prevent breast cancer. But it does show that the body notices—and starts to repair itself—almost immediately when you stop putting these substances on your skin. ["Reduction of daily-use parabens and phthalates reverses accumulation of cancer-associated phenotypes within disease-free breast tissue of study subjects." Chemosphere, 2023]

Up until 6 months ago, the majority of the left recognised how essential Corbyn’s leadership wld be to cut through to the public with a new party The super wealthy establishment must be rubbing their hands with glee at the way so many are now desperate to squander that asset!
