So disgusted tonight

He's now determinedly and repeatedly slurring women. So, just another Tuesday, then.

With friends like these who needs enemies eh Owen? Would be nice if this made him reflect on whether he really has picked the right side, but I suspect he's in too deep.

Has cheered me up no end seeing him trying to use dictionary definitions to defend his position then being surprised when it doesn't wash with his TRA pals 🤣

One tweet from a TRA says this: 'please listen to us when we tell you something as a group.'

It's interesting to view language in this way. That certain groups have the right to define a word. More of a right to define a word than other people. And of course, this isn't 'just' a word, it's a legal term, with legal definitions and implications.

Yes, it's not gender critical feminists who are advocating for unevidenced treatment that sterilises people while they are still children.

The Cass report cannot come fast enough.

And I don't think Jones understands the nature of transactivism if he thinks he can stop the pile on by saying other people are gleeful about it.

It's him whose done the wrong thing, by saying he's supportive, but not quite supportive enough.

He put a foot wrong, and now it's curtains. Us? Our feet are all over the place, it's too late for us.

'Transgender' doesn't come under national, ethnical, racial or religious group does it?

It could be considered a religion, and one definition of genocide is Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;

With their recruitment of pre-pubescent children to embark on a pathway in which they would be sterilised, is this the first example of a group's genocide of its own members?^^

He keeps saying the debate's over, though, Spinstile. End of!

I believe that OJ has just opened up an whole big can of worms here.

It's certainly provoking #MuchDebate. He can try to shut the stable door after the white knight's horse has bolted, but tbh I think the door's come off its hinges during the charge.

Here's a new church of LGTQBQ

I'm not sure all transgender people are on board with this, though.

'Transgender' doesn't come under national, ethnical, racial or religious group does it?

I'd say you can accept it as a religious group.

In which case you've then got one set of campaigners saying children deemed to be of that group should be sterilised and medically harmed.

And another set of campaigners saying children deemed to be of that group should not be sterilised or medically harmed.

Hmm.

And B. Serious bodily harm? Like turning healthy bodies into lifelong medical patients?

Plus, don't suicides go up after medical transition?

Also from that page:

The intent is the most difficult element to determine. To constitute genocide, there must be a proven intent on the part of perpetrators to physically destroy a national, ethnical, racial or religious group..........Importantly, the victims of genocide are deliberately targeted - not randomly – because of their real or perceived membership of one of the four groups protected under the Convention (which excludes political groups, for example).

'Transgender' doesn't come under national, ethnical, racial or religious group does it?

Wow he really does hate women doesn't he?

It's feminists fault that TRAs have turned on him...

Own your shit OJ, like you asked everyone you disagree with to do.

He's spouted vitriol for years in a way that implied nuance doesn't matter and every word should be scrutinised.

I wonder how that medicine tastes.

Of misogyny I would imagine.

Thoroughly enjoying watching OJ get set upon by the TRAs!

Looking at 'd' in this list though, I'm not sure they want to be making too much of 'The definition of genocide'.....

From that same page:

'The popular understanding of what constitutes genocide tends to be broader than the content of the norm under international law.'

Owen is probably sticking too closely to the actual definition. It's almost like he has some journalistic standard of integrity to remember.

Perhaps his lawyers pointed out to him that agreeing with calling Helens' discussion 'genocide', on record, is not smart?

www.un.org/en/genocideprevention/genocide.shtml

Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide

Article II

In the present Convention, genocide means any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such:

Killing members of the group;

Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group;

Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part;

Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;

Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.

Genocide isn't just murder

And I guess murder isn't just killing people, while we're at it.

Probably best that he does back off. They won’t stop. It’s a blood sport.

He's "backing off".

Oh look it's all our fault he got piled on by TRAs

Is OJ doing some mountaineering, perchance?

Hm, what happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object?

Robyn the soi-disant lesbian will acknowledge the hyperbole and recant, and Owen will apologise for white-knighting for trans people on his cis horse.

Yes, planet-sized.

Ooh really? Crikey.

He isn't timid, but he does have a massive ego.

I don’t think he’ll do either. Again, I don’t like OJ but he isn’t timid in that way. He’ll just say “oh”, I reckon.
