Police Scotland equate 'gender critical' views to Nazism

[ArabellaScott]

Yes, they really did.

A document circulated within Police Scotland for 'Trans History Week', in May.

‘Like many noteworthy events, this week was founded to start at this particular time deliberately, this time in recognition of the anniversary of the Nazi raid on the world’s first ever trans clinic in 1933.
‘Books and paperwork were burned as part of the Nazis’ targeting of queer communities. Gender binary was a key feature of the Nazi racist policies.
‘Right now, some 88 years later, the gender critical movement has a strong voice and presence.
‘Is this movement an echo of how past hostilities arose and does it mean we have failed to understand the lessons we should have collectively learned from our shared history?’

Fucking hell. Just as you think things have surely run out of stupidity, more pops out of the woodwork.

Is BH one of their key advisors?

'It is believed to have been written by a police officer or member of civilian staff with responsibility for liaising with gay and transgender employees.'

'Commenting on the ‘Nazi’ document last night, a Police Scotland spokesman said: ‘The content does not reflect the views of Police Scotland and has been removed.
‘Advice will be given around the use of language.’

It's not just 'use of language', though, is it? Unless I suppose if we say mal comms are 'use of language', or defamation is 'use of language'.

It's not 'the language', it's the content that is objectionable😡

Police Scotland is a joke. Scot Squad is less funny.

I shall await my arrest along with all the other Scottish Terven.

That is appalling. This hyperbole is spiralling.

Do they mention the times trans activists burned JK Rowlings books, or when feminist books were removed from the feminist libraries? Did they compare trans activists to Nazis?
No, I didn't think so.

''Accusation in a mirror is a false claim that accuses the target of something that the perpetrator is doing or intends to do.''

How embarrassing to be so very stupid.

Terrifying to be that stupid with powers of arrest, I'd say.

This week has been a master class really in how the leading voices of GI are not balanced or well people, are incapable of rationality or a grip on reality, and really should not be in any position of responsibility. Masks off and what's there is what was always suspected but wasn't 'kind' to mention.

Can we talk about the Malaga Elephants yet?

Bloody hell.

Dr Stuart Waiton, a senior lecturer in sociology and criminology at Abertay University in Dundee, said: ‘Transgender activists are inclined to use hyperbolic statements. ‘This one that attempts to associate today’s gender critics with Nazi Germany is a particularly embarrassing example of this.

‘That Police Scotland allow activists to promote their extremist ideology on their own communication system suggests that we have a serious problem in this country.

Politely put, but yes, I'd bet a criminologist could make some very interesting professional observations.

Dr Waiton has put it very well I think.

Sounds like a lot of people need training on women's rights in list of recent court cases.Let's hope employers are assiduous about that as they have been about implementing trans awareness training - but without the misrepresentation of the law, of course.

So they will just be advised not disciplined as appropriate (gross misconduct for bringing the force into disrepute?)

‘That Police Scotland allow activists to promote their extremist ideology on their own communication system suggests that we have a serious problem in this country.

Absolutely this.

Very creative history.

As usual, the lack of action is a tacit admittance that they agree with the fool that did this, the only problem was saying the quiet bit out loud.

Am I the only one that cannot find any evidence in real, actual facts and history of the Third Reich attempting to take over the world and do all the terrible things they did in the name of women having single sex spaces and not having to get undressed on command of men with serious problems?

It's hardly a slippery slope is it? First you say women should have the right to privacy and dignity, and before you know it you've invaded Poland.

IIRC the Nazis had quite a big thing for crossdressing themselves, a bigger thing for harrassing and harming homosexuals, and an even bigger thing for destroying the work of Jewish medics. Oh, and wasn't their biggest thing of all disenfrachising, dehumanising and murdering Jews? And homosexuals, and people with disabilities, and people who dared express alternative views?

Nope. Not seeing the comparison at all.

"In March, police chiefs asked an equalities watchdog – the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) - for advice about whether they should allow rapists to self-identify as women, and provide single-sex changing rooms for staff."

Why the fuck can't these morons think for themselves. To think these are actual questions that they needed help to answer! Idiots.
