@Natasha_Jay they will not stand against Billionaire Bigots then...

@Tooden it is, but apparently she had the means to ruin them. So I'm furious, but I also understand why they are making that choice, to keep fighting another day. @larsmb @Natasha_Jay
@AnnaBaguenaude @Tooden @larsmb @Natasha_Jay still I expect AIUK to stand up steadfast against trans and lgbt hate.

@AnnaBaguenaude @Tooden @Natasha_Jay "Mixed feelings", to say the least.
This is the kind of fight I'd expect Amnesty International to pick.

@Natasha_Jay wow who got to them?
@celeduc @Natasha_Jay JK Rowling and her gang of TERFs threatening to SLAPP lawsuit them.

@Natasha_Jay Moments like this represent the spiritual death of an organization.
Amnesty International is making clear that its previously stated values no longer represent their current priorities.

"AIUK remains fully committed to defending the human rights, dignity, and equality of all marginalised groups, including women, girls, and members of the trans community."
Isn't this more nuanced than your take suggests?

@dylanwolters
That is exactly why I shared.We are seeing LGBTQ organizations and media in the UK become LG(B) organizations already. Yes you Stonewall, yes you Pink News etc
Thin end of the wedge...

@Natasha_Jay didn't the leader (or some high-ranking official at least) in Amnesty make a comment basically criticizing Ukraine for the fact that their cities were in the way of Russian missile strikes, a few years ago?
I would have lost faith in the organization after this if I still had any faith left to lose.

@Natasha_Jay @androcat Happy to help!

@Natasha_Jay Have you considered whether transgenderism—which runs counter to natural genetic selection—causes physical harm to the individual, as well as the breakdown of social norms and ethical standards?
-
@jerrej
No, it's not. They caved.There is no nuance. Check.

@jerrej @Natasha_Jay Not really. They say that after they say that anti-trans organisations aren't "anti rights".

@Natasha_Jay Fuck Ammesty on this one!
This is where authoritarianism begins. The unit of authoritarianism is submission.
They just showed they are weak. And gave the losers whose only skill is violence the permission to inflict violence.
.. sent them a message they’ve just made UK trans people a target by showing weakness. And asked for a reply. I suggest you do also.

Just wow. Wow wow wow. It's not natural and it's an "ism" so it's all in someone's poor misguided head, right? And nobody "considered" what is so very obvious to you? Thank you for explaining.
Thanks.
