Genocide in the US

My memory is a bit hazy on this, but IIRC there was a group that named themselves after Anne Frank, without any permission from her family.

I have a very strong and emotive memory from my childhood of watching Otto Frank, Anne's father, being interviewed on TV, so I always felt appropriating her name for any cause was a bit much.

For those who want to waste a few minutes reading the whole nonsense: https://www.lemkininstitute.com/single-post/experts-warn-u-s-in-early-stages-of-genocide-against-trans-americans

And yes, they go there:

"He cautioned that transgender Americans are more vulnerable than other groups due to their population size. Today, they make up roughly one percent of the total U.S. population—a rough equivalent to Jews in 1933 Germany. "

I would say that you couldn't make this up, but, well, they do.

Oh, well in that case it must be true then 🙄

Raphael Lemkin, after whom this institute was named (without the consent of his descendants*) knew what genocide really was. He was a Holocaust survivor.

*the family are pursuing the institute's founders in court

Look up the word ‘hyperbole’ and you’ll find Thd Lemmon I statute next to it

I believe one of mine, the one who's demand for food every 2 minutes goes unanswered, has done a peer review of your data and concurs!

I have just founded the Peter Lee Institute. Despite the name, it has nothing to do with the respected Labour MP and is made up of me and CatOfHate. The Peter Lee Institute says that there is systematic speciesism against cats, based on our resident feline expert's Lived Experience(tm) of not being allowed to eat his bodyweight in chicken every day. Clearly, with such an exalted name, the Peter Lee Institute must be correct in this assertion.

I love how the media treats the Lemkin Institute as if it's some venerable, massively respected, human rights watchdog that has something to do with Raphael Lemkin...

...instead of two Omnicause activists with a laptop.

Even Wikipedia struggles to make these guys look credible.

This claim fails on two grounds:

1. Genocide is, by definition, a crime that can only be committed against a racial, ethnic, national, or religious group. Unless you are trying to claim with a straight face that trans ideology is a religion, this definition cannot apply to trans people.

1. Being told to use your own sex's facilities isn't a human rights violation. Neither is being told to compete in the sports team for own sex, nor being housed in your own sex's prison. Genocide requires human rights violations on a large scale, and the US simply isn't doing that.

Did Mummy tell them to tidy their room?
