The women issue isn’t just anti-wokery or a nice to have, it’s an existential threat and if we lose our rights, legal protections and language, I think they’ll be gone for good. It’s one of the few questions that, imo, it’s genuinely worth being a single issue voter over because of what we, and in particular the most vulnerable women in the country, stand to lose.
Yes this. As for accusing people who object to self I'd being used to bulldoze women's rights as middle class.
A) there's nothing wrong with being middle class. Middle class people work full time jobs. They may have a degree but knowledge is not a crime.
B)Prisons and women's refuges will be the worst hit by self I'd. They are certainly not only used by the middle classes.
It's actually the champagne socialism attitude of labour that one could accuse being based on class. However, a lot of middle class jobs work directly with the vulnerable. teaching, healthcare, policing etc. These people are more likely to have misgivings about the impact of self I'd. It's the CEOs (like that appalling rape charity comment about reframing trauma) and the like who push self I'd has it has no consequences for them and they are very removed from the reality so can promote ideological craptrap.
Being told I am stupid by the way, will not cause me to vote Labour. I used to be a bit aggressive with Conservative voters like this. Now I'm on the receiving end I don't know why I ever thought it was a good tactic.
It's not about thinking conservative will do anything actively good for women. It's about stopping labour, greens and Dems in who will actively dismantle sex based rights. They took hundreds of years to put in, we can't afford to build.yhem up again.
