To find the organised mass reporting and silencing of women worrying

And disgusting and infuriating. Lists have been compiled recently to report and sanction women in the Labour party for being critical of gender identity politics and voicing their views and concerns - now women and ayone in any way critical of this ideology are being reported and being banned on social media platforms - especially twitter. Why the fuck is this being allowed and encouraged and celebrated. It will be off to the gulags to be re educated for committing thought crime.

Not thought crime - hate crime.

Twitter is a private company. It sets is own rules about what you can and can't post on it. One of the things it doesn't allow is hate speech against trans people. Anyone breaking Twitter's terms of service will have their account suspended or deleted.

Many, many people manage to discuss their views on gender identity without using hate speech and being banned. By focusing on the minority who do use hate speech and framing it as an ideological crusade, you're doing a disservice to those who manage debate without abuse.

Galway - what do you consider hate crime? Is it a hate crime to think

  • people can’t change sex

  • that sex is more important than gender, especially in law and women’s and girl’s rights

  • to believe and say that a woman is simply and adult female

  • To say only females can concieve and carry babies

  • To say women don’t have penises

  • To say males should not compete in female sports

  • To say males (especially violent males and rapists) should not be in women’s prisons

Please clarify what is considered hate speech here. It’s important that people know if they could be bigots* or breaking the law
