Time to stand against the self entitled
The attacks on a free society continue from several different sources most of them claiming to be either "offended" (whatever that means) or have a higher "oppression" than other groups. Their "rights" take precedence over others or rather the "rights" of their beliefs.
So let me make this clear from the start. People have rights. Ideas, ideologies and theologies do not. Further sometimes rights of humans clash so compromises must e reached so that all can be protected.
That word "compromise" seems never to be used these days. Identitarian politics the "me" crowd have the car at every corner. Recently we have seen feminists "no platformed", meetings banned and threats of police action over "misgendering".
It's not just the trans-activists but religious groups are jumping on the bandwagon. A large group of Muslim parents protested about their being taught to basically be tolerant to people who have different relationships and lifestyles to their own. Gay lifestyles go against Islam.
Tough this is a modern open and democratic society where people can live their lives more or less as they wish. Straight or gay, black, brown or white it's up to you. Worship freely but accept that there are many faiths and none. Christians and Jews, Pagans and Buddhists live here to.
Conservative elements, some might say rather fundamentalist elements are using parents fears around some deity to campaign against the teaching of broad values. British and democratic values. Tolerance.
And it's spreading. More parents are up in arms in Birmingham and now Manchester. On the TV programme This Morning Christians are claiming being gay is a choice. It isn't. Live with it.
Meanwhile BAME women activists including Linda Bellos have been banned by Lewisham council for holding black women's rights meetings on their properties because of the threat of violence. From the trans-male activists with whom they disagree over safe areas for women and girls.
Police are ironically now taking action against a trans-singer in Scotland who tweeted his followers to "throat punch" "TERFS, that is women. Women who just disagree with losing their rights.
Male violence from the "trans-activists" is growing in terms of harassment and vindictive targeting of feminist activists and not just i the UK. And they claim it's because they oppressed. The far-left support these types because Marxism supposedly supports the violence of the oppressed but neither these trans-fascists or fundamentalist Muslims are oppressed they just feel entitled and sod the rest of us.
Enough is enough
