I think @rights_info 's coverage of the question of how proposals for gender self ID will impact on women's rights has been woefully inadequate and skewed. When I raised this with founder and chair @AdamWagner1 he told me to make an official complaint

So I did, complaining about their coverage of a peaceful protest by gender critical women, in support of Linda Bellos and Venice Allen https://rightsinfo.org/linda-bellos-faces-trial/ …https://rightsinfo.org/how-media-missed-bigger-picture-trans-non-binary-rights/ …

Rights Info describe it as “A Highly Charged Atmosphere” "Intimidation". The person who brought the case against Linda & Venice was "Terrified of turning up at court….from the point of view of my personal safety.” “They have made me frightened and they have made me scared”

What's terrifying is that people who are actively campaigning and working towards taking away the rights of other people are: Smiling and happy about it? And proud of it? And so absorbed by their own agenda they think they're actually doing something good? That's pretty scary.

To name a few areas: harassment and stigma, anti-trans violence, barriers to healthcare, identity documents.

Thats not what gender critical women are saying Ethan. I am not (and have not heard) anyone call for trans people to lose human rights protection from harassment or violence, or to miss out on healthcare. Key issue is single sex spaces & services. https://forwomen.scot/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Rosa-Freedman-FWS.pdf …pic.twitter.com/YfaWaF6aRT

GC women may not be saying these things outright, but they are very well aware of the implications of their words and actions, as I'm sure that you are too. It's purely transphobia and you know it.

Sorry no. You don't get to disregard what people say and, ascribe to them something else you imagine they are thinking and you are "sure they are aware of"
