It doesn’t make sense because it’s in the UK, under a Labour government, not the US under Trump.

So? Starmer’s government is about as leftist as the Tories were under Cameron, and moving rightward.

Nah. She donated to the campaign, but she didn’t start the group behind it. There are a bunch of true believers who organise on social media and think this is the most important issue facing women. Incomprehensible, but they are clearly serious about their beliefs.

She certainly thinks she’s the driving force behind it, based on her reaction to it. But yes, true believers who promote toxic views on social media are difficult to comprehend sometimes.

In terms of damage to women, it’s no different to the idea women should be afraid of men in general, and that’s mainstream feminism and socially approved.

Well, apart from the fact that the “socially approved mainstream feminism” version is evidence-based and is about empowering women, and the anti-trans (and anti- other groups) one is baseless fearmongering designed to disempower women.
