FFS. Where does this shit endup? My grandmother had a phrase she used a lot that comes to mind when I see stuff like this. " What’ll become of us attall attall?"
It’s the word “harmful” that’s the most worrying part of that poster. The language police have taken it upon themselves to convince the public that the use of a word could disenfranchise an entire group.
World’s gone bonkers

In 1999 the American Dialect Society chose the word of the millennium. They chose “she”.
It’s amazing to think that twenty years later we’re on the road to “she” being an unacceptable word to use in polite society.
And we’re still only approaching peak madness.
Candace Owens recently pointed out that transgender policies are currently trampling over the rights of women.
That’s fascism.
All authoritarian movements begin by hijacking language.
Genuine question, I always linked the rainbow flag with Pride week/month. But there’s a change to the flag, with a triangle like the South Africa flag. What does it mean?
In June 2018 designer Daniel Quasar released a redesign incorporating elements from both the Philadelphia flag and trans pride flag to bring focus on inclusion and progress within the community. The flag design immediately went viral on social media, prompting worldwide coverage in news outlets.[46][47][48] While retaining the common six-stripe rainbow design as a base, the “Progress” variation adds a chevron along the hoist that features black, brown, light blue, pink, and white stripes to bring those communities (marginalized people of color, trans individuals, and those living with HIV/AIDS and those who have been lost) to the forefront; “the arrow points to the right to show forward movement, while being along the left edge shows that progress still needs to be made.”[49]

Everyday is a school day. Thanks pal.
This is very exclusionary towards Muslims
There’s room on there for everyone it seems.
“There’ll be a celebration in my house whenever I’m off it. I can’t wait to be the man of the house and bring in the bread again.”

Knew a few lads in the past where the missus was earning more and it played on their minds like a woodpecker pecking away…
Florida has just introduced a law to stop men who identify as women and have had surgery from participating in womens sports. The woke brigade will be up in arms about this.
Can’t see how anything else could be argued? Just in terms of health and safety, the male frame is just simply bigger so things like contact sports, you’re simply never going to have an even contest no matter how much oestrogen is pumped into a guy.
It’s like the steroids argument. Fellas can take them, get caught and banned but the physical benefits/advantages are there long after the ban is up.
The argument is that biological men who have their cock and balls cut off are now women. It’s a denial of science.
The wokeys won’t see it that way at all. Even a rational argument like your won’t cut it with them. Its the same pricks that refer to pregnant ‘people’ rather than a pregnant woman.
If anybody thinks De Santis is doing this to protect the integrity of women’s sport, I have some magic beans to sell them. De Santis doesn’t give a flying shit about women’s sport. All he cares about is appealing to bigots.
He’s doing it because so called “populist” right wing politics the world over has nothing to offer ordinary people on real issues, and in the absence of having anything to offer ordinary people, has to create fake issues, fake enemies, in which the “other” - who are very often actual vulnerable people, in this case trans women, are ludicrously portrayed as “oppressors”. It has to whip up fake fear and fake “moral panics”. It has to shout “look over there”. It has to create fake “oppressors”. The powerful, elite trans community oppressing the powerless straight, white community. This ludicrous construction would be funny if it weren’t so despicable. It’s the very definition of a witch hunt.
The “issues” on which right-wing politics likes to fight on are all fake ones, invented ones. It has nothing to offer except whipping up fear of and anger against the vulnerable. What despots have done forever. On every level, but especially a basic human one, it’s vile.
