Scottish Greens/Patrick Harvie protests the Women's Cycling Event

[ArabeIIaScott]

I thought this was a piss take at first, but it's real.

Patrick Harvie and a bunch of trans activists protested the recent international event in Glasgow.

A man protesting women's sport.

Why?

Because it is open to women only.

'Questions were raised about why the protest had targeted the women's elite road race and not the mens'

No shit.

This paragraph in SP's article really stood out:

After all, if transgender people truly represented such a threat to fairness in sport, shouldn’t there be countless examples of us storming our way en masse to gold medals and prize podiums with little resistance, rather than just the imagined threat of such?

Why, it's as if he's never heard of Cece Telfer, Rachel McKinnon, Emily Bridges, Lia Thomas, Jaiyah Saelua, Andraya Yearwood, Mianne Bagger, Fallon Fox, Chelsea Wolfe, Tifanny Abreu, Austin Killips, Ricci Tres....

I mean, I could go on and on and on and on, but my typing fingers are getting cramped.

Another very worrying thing is this - Scottish Green Party co-convener Patrick Harvie received an Ian Dunn Memorial Award. Just Google that name.

A founder of PIE. And they're giving awards in his name? Fuck me.

More worrying Sinner Harvie felt able to accept it 🤔

That's shocking

Or......you know....not 🤢
