Just saw a Norwegian news article about two trans persons committing CSA
May be sent to a women's prison
"Oh dear, don't tell me this is some TERF screed... Well, it could also be the opposite, right? But I'm smelling a dead dove here..."
The perpetrators were three men, two of them transgender
"Either this is a very progressive way to cover two trans men, or a very regressive way to cover two trans women."
Identifying as women
"Yahari."
[interview with some TERF calling the Norwegian state's respect for the women's gender a "parody of political correctness", accusing trans women of being men trying to sneak into women's spaces, repeatedly emphasizing how the SA was penetrative using their "male organs"
"Eugh......."
[doesn't even interview anyone who isn't a TERF, leaving that person's stances completely unchallenged]
"Yup, it's manufacturing consent time!"
This wasn't some obscure publication, either, this was Nettavisen — Norway's first online-only news publication, founded in 1996, owned by the conglomerate Amedia, with a revenue of some 171.3 mln NOK (2021), so it's in fact one of the most popular news publications in the country.
News in this country has been increasingly embracing TERFism and other transphobia. I'm getting a bit worried about it.
I hate how the sick and disgusting terf ideology is metastasizing to the rest of the west. Relatively progressive social was one of our few redeeming features — we are racist, imperialist scumbags but at least we're somewhat normal to LGBTQ people — and now we can't even have that. We were just about to achieve the kind of normalisation for trans people that gay people have had and now it's all being called off to protect the precious feelings of a handful of weird mold-brained wankers.
Meanwhile the same pricks who are spreading this filth have no problems crying crocodile tears over the fate of queer people in enemy non-Aryan countries.
