Sadly, that's modern politics.

And that is why they'll never achieve their aims until they change their tactics.

Given the rollback of rights going on at the moment, would it really be a surprise if being more aggressive wasn’t the response?

For example, you have a millionaire openly funding a group that seeks out other organisations doing no harm and just happily getting on, like the ladies swimming ponds in London, and taking them to court to enforce laws they don’t want to and their members haven’t asked for, with the sole aim of isolating and making life worse for a few people in that group.

If I were in a group others wanted to make disappear primarily to ease their own distaste, I might be inclined to be a bit aggressive myself.

I suppose it's an improvement on what the good law project came up with.

Good Law Project has apologised to members of the trans community and withdrawn its ‘Monster’ campaign after concerns were raised about how it had been received.

In a statement issued by executive director Jo Maugham, the legal campaign organisation said it had listened to criticism from the trans community and instructed its media partners, including Scene, to remove the campaign.

The campaign, titled Monster, was created by artist Martin Firrell and was intended to address what the organisation described as opposition to trans people's rights, spaces and joy. According to the Good Law Project, the campaign was designed to speak primarily to cisgender audiences and had been positively received during testing with allies and members of the team involved in its development, including trans people.

With allies like this who needs enemies?

Yup, stuff like that and the Park Run stuff, the aim of anti trans people (and that is what they are) is to eradicate them from society.

Sorry but that's the simple fact.

And that, I fear, is the truth. It's gone beyond Sharon Davies not wanting trans women in the Olympics or Linehan moaning about a TV episode being cancelled. They want trans people in hiding.
