Start your weekend laughing! Bill Maher is onboardthe GC train and telling it like it is.

The bit about the ACLU is a big thing too.

The ACLU supported the KKK's right to march.

They filed in court and put legal teams in place to make sure that marches went ahead.

The ethos was based on civil liberty for all no matter what. The right to be free to say and do "stuff", (like march as the KKK) and not to have decisions imposed on them by the State or opposing groups.

For the politics of the ACLU to go from there to being determined to ban a book in a generation shows how big the social shift has become.

And that poster, optics are not great, 🙃 once you see it, its hard to unsee.

Add in anyone serching to look for that twitter feed, sometimes its probabaly a little too "educational" rather than stunning and brave.

Matt Walsh has a beard and cares about the safety of women and children.

Ah, you say one wrong thing and you're out of the club forever and actually you were always right wing, it's just that nobody mentioned it before now.

Quite.

Crikey. Last I read about the ACLU, they were going to court to fight for the right for rapists to be placed in women's prisons.

Funny old world.

Here's the ref:

www.womensliberationfront.org/news/case-update-aclu-says-excluding-male-sex-offenders-from-womens-prisons-is-discriminatory-unconstitutional

“Similarly, CDCR cannot deny a [man’s] transfer request based on [his] convictions or disciplinary history so long as it incarcerates cisgender[sic] women with similar records in its women’s prisons, as that would run afoul of the nondiscrimination provision' - ACLU

Translated: 'just because a man's raped someone doesn't mean you can refuse to lock him up with women'

I think a lot of men are sexist...on the left and the right and in the middle. I've watched Bill Maher only sparingly in my life, so I'm not tuned into any humor of his that is sexist.

What I do know is that Bill Maher is a Democrat voting man who pissed off Trump and generally takes up causes on the left. Despite that, he's not afraid to make fun of Democrat politicians when it's funny. Most importantly for me as a feminist, he thinks abortion should be legal and safe for all women.

He can not be equated to Matt 'keep the patriarchy and my place on top of it' Walsh nor the the very dangerous Tucker Carlson who espouses white supremacist Replacement Theory.

I'd equate Maher to Dave Chappelle...also on the left, sometimes says sexist things, but generally a decent human who is not trying to bring our country into a theocracy nor a white man's paradise. VERY different.

What's good about Maher speaking on this topic is the strategic bump it gives to legitimizing the gender ideology insanity with a left leaning crowd. In the U.S., it's the left that needs persuading....we need left-leaning and moderate voters to put pressure on this issue.

Tucker Carlson who espouses white supremacist Replacement Theory.

He just said that feminists are on board with female genital mutilation this week, yet many here think he's the bee's knees.

Which posters said he was the 'bees knees'?

Oh ffs.

'Cisgender [sic]' women don't have penises so can't have committed penis crimes. The end.

Fuck off, ACLU, with your incel sophistry.

ACLU has become such a massive disappointment.

The ACLU is arguing for mixed sex prisons.

It goes to show why there is a big drive to force the term "transwoman" to have a space plus why the use and meanings of words in legislation is so important.

I can also see why they are using DSD as a shield.

How many females are housed or seeking to be housed in with the general population of any male prison?

It feels like US feminism is in a terrible place at the moment, caught in a right-left pincer movement. I really sympathise and I don't pretend to understand how things got to this state but nor do I understand the point of seeking approval from one of the parties that's fucking you over. From where I'm sitting - and yes I'm in the UK and it's different - we are on our own and neither the left nor the right are coming to save us, but it sure as hell suits the left to have us believe they might.

I've heard it will be published alongside the definitive list of beliefs, hobbies and permitted clothing that mean you can identify as a woman.

🙄

None, of course.

The dishonesty from the nagging puritans on here is staggering.

The ACLU is arguing for mixed sex prisons.

It's not even just mixed sex prisons, as far as I can tell. It's specifically going to court to argue for the rights of rapists.

we can be pearl clutchers and also impure?

And?

Posie Parker thinks he's 'delightful'.

Posie Parker isn't many people on here, is she? She isn't even one person on here.

Julie Bindel doesn't like crisp eating on planes.

I'm indifferent.

My parents made me to go to church as a child.

I wish they hadn't.

She doesn't have an account on here. You said many people here.

I don't care who is saying it when what they are saying is we need to stop doing this shit to children!
