> New documents released under FOI (after delay due to one of the organisations asking for the funding breakdown to be kept secret) shows that the gender ideology lobby group ACON was awarded 70% of the public funding for a cervical cancer prevention campaign.
> Despite the govt identifying Aboriginal and migrant women as the primary targets of the campaign, organisations representing those women were awarded a tenth of the funding given to ACON. -

> I am formerly trans. Why won’t Berklee let me share my story? - The Boston Globe
https://www.bostonglobe.com/2024/12/17/opinion/berklee-gender-identity-talk/
QUOTE
Stories like mine are becoming common. More and more people of my generation are desisting and detransitioning, realizing that rejecting yourself at a cellular level is not the route to a happy life. I am one of the lucky ones. I never took cross-sex hormones or underwent irreversible surgeries. Unfortunately, this is something I cannot say of many of my friends, people like Ritchie Heron and Chloe Cole who do not have the option of moving on with their lives as if nothing happened.
Many of the same people who embraced us while we were trans, who are quick to condemn homophobia, have turned their backs on us, calling us “transphobes” and “TERFs” (trans-exclusionary radical feminist), sending threats, and comparing us to Nazis both online and in the street. It’s no wonder so few of us speak up.
Things started to go south on Oct. 15, when I started my promotional campaign with fliers and an Instagram post. I woke up the next day to more than 400 overwhelmingly negative comments on my post announcing the event. I was shocked: I had not expected more than 20 people to “like” my post and I didn’t expect to receive a torrent of hatred, threats of physical and sexual assault, and wishes for my death from my fellow Berklee students. I was targeted not just online but also in person. My first time back on campus after the post, several students yelled at me on the street, and others made snide comments about me when they passed by. -

> John Pesutto Moira Deeming case: John Howard, Tony Abbott mooted as peacemakers in abandoned deal
https://www.theage.com.au/politics/victoria/howard-abbott-mooted-as-deeming-peacemakers-in-abandoned-deal-20241217-p5kz18.html
> Opposition Leader John Pesutto was prepared to outsource Moira Deeming’s readmission to the Victorian Liberal party room to former prime ministers John Howard and Tony Abbott in a desperate bid to prevent her defamation case against him from ending up in court.
> However, the radical proposal was ultimately not enough to sway the ousted MP, who wanted a guarantee she would be welcomed back into the party fold before she abandoned her Federal Court proceedings.
> The previously undisclosed details of Pesutto’s settlement plan, which were confirmed by two sources familiar with negotiations, and Deeming’s best pre-trial offer to her former leader will be weighed by Liberal MPs as they prepare for the Friday morning vote on Deeming’s return.
> The revelations may also influence Federal Court judge David O’Callaghan’s deliberations on how the multimillion-dollar costs arising from the year-long litigation should be split between the parties.
> On Tuesday, Pesutto’s lawyers served notice on Deeming’s team seeking the identity of all donors who funded her case and the amount of financial support she received. Deeming’s lawyers are likely to follow suit, setting off another round of legal manoeuvres.
...
> The proposal faltered over Deeming’s concerns that deferring to a panel – even one where she picked the majority of members – and discontinuing her case ahead of their recommendations would give her no certainty of outcome. -

Winter Pride event called off after FSU writes to Welsh Pride event
https://freespeechunion.org/winter-pride-event-called-off-after-fsu-writes-to-welsh-pride-event/
> A Winter Pride was called off by organisers at the weekend after they claimed – incorrectly – that the Free Speech Union (FSU) had threatened legal action against the organisers if they banned a woman with gender critical beliefs from attending.
> In fact, the FSU merely asked for written confirmation that our member could attend, or if not, why; and also made clear (since we asked for concessions) that she nonetheless reserved her rights to take action if applicable.
> In other words, all the organisers were asked to do was tolerate people with different perspective and not discriminate. Yet they decided it was better to cancel the entire event rather than let one women with gender-critical beliefs attend peacefully. -

If ultras are driven by personal disgust and especially use this disgust as a basis for policies then she's got a good point here -

He's got a great sense of humour. Someone GC woman (Edie Wyatt?) in a recent xitter space about deeming v pesutto said he was far right when he started at GB news. Is that true? -

Also, the "and more" under flags and symbols is concerning. Somehow I doubt the government will publish an exhaustive list of naughty images -

Banning flags and symbols is a bad idea. Introducing a "social cohesion pledge" for organisations to get funding reminds me of stonewall (or the Australian version called acon awei) points which is not great -

Yes, it's not great down under, with a media blackout still effective, except a handful rightwing outlets talking about harms on children occasionally. And no politicians in left of centre parties speaks out against trans ideology. -

Why I'm leaving the UK - UnHerd
https://unherd.com/2024/12/why-im-leaving-britain/
QUOTE
Rather than facing cancellation, I have experienced what Helen Dale has described as the “silo effect”. Although most of my political views would traditionally be described as “Left-wing”, my stance on the culture war has meant that I have been pigeonholed as being on the Right. So while I do not hold allegiance to any ideology, the insistence that I must be classified with one particular “side” means that my employment prospects will always be limited. The digital crèche of social media, with its insistence on political tribalism, binary thinking and purity spirals, has infected the mainstream. For many commentators, it’s now a matter of “you’re either with us or against us”.
The first time I became aware of an opportunity missed due to ideological factors was when a senior member of staff at the Soho Theatre in London told me candidly that I had been taken off the shortlist for a new playwriting scheme because I was white and male. Years later, when I taught stand-up courses at the Soho Theatre for up-and-coming comedians, I was informed that my contract could not be renewed because one of the members of the group felt “unsafe” after reading a joke I had tweeted. This impact for me was negligible — I didn’t rely on the work financially and was only continuing out of a sense of loyalty — but it did concern me that a leading theatre had such a casual disregard for the importance of artistic freedom. -
