    Straight cis men dressing as women for a joke is hardly new.

    Or for sexual pleasure. Which is what most "transwomen" are actually doing.

    That's not true and you know it, you're just trying to be as big of an ass as possible

    Pro-foxhunting group says UK hunters should be protected ethnic minority
    Chair of Hunting Kind says he has built legal case to obtain same protection as Roma and LGBTQ+ people


    A pro-foxhunting group says it has prepared a legal case to try to prove that hunters are an ethnic minority whose hunts should be protected under equality laws.

    Ed Swales, the chair of Hunting Kind, claims he has been advised by a leading human rights lawyer that hunters unequivocally qualify for legal protection under the UK Equality Act 2010.

    Speaking to the FieldsportsChannel podcast, Swales said: “The qualifications of an ethnic group, there are five of them, and we hit everyone straight in the bullseye.”

    He said he had spent three years preparing a legal challenge that had now been reviewed by a human rights KC “who sits on the council of the European court of human rights”.

    Swales said: “The outcome of that from the human rights silk is that as a protected minority group under the Equality Act, we qualify, undoubtedly 10 out of 10.”

    He said the group would try to mount legal challenges to prove that those who support hunting have suffered discrimination such as losing work or contracts, or been abused on social media. If successful, such action would give hunters the same protection as minority groups such as the Roma community or LGBTQ+ groups.

    Potentially. Although I have no idea if "cyberbullying" accusations can result in arrest, or simply citation.

    Presumably, if there were agreements with the US government, there are likely similar agreements with the UK.

    Should also be noted that while Musk and Rowling are named, the investigation is by no means limited to them.

    Hopefully nobody's posts in here could qualify as cyber-bullying...

    I don't think platypuses should be allowed in the Olympics.

    Skip forward to 42:00 when they start talking about the transgender treatment issue.

    Why? One of them does game shows and the other believes fracking can solve global warming. What do they reasonably bring to this conversation?

    Bias?

    Still, the second one has investigated and written extensively about WPATH. He's not uninformed. Clearly slanted, but not uninformed.
