Australian politicians and human rights commissions are relying on citizen complacency to get away with this. If we ignore it, they can too. A male sex offender of this magnitude being in a women’s prison because he claims to be a woman is the culmination of everything gender ideology is about. It’s one of the many worst case scenarios. What starts as “being kind” ends up right here. But it’s not just that he is in a woman’s prison, as bad as that is. It’s that his claim of being a woman was used as a defense to get him a lighter sentence - and it worked. What do legislators think that says to all the worst men in society? The easiest loophole imaginable has been created for them and, evidently, they’re using it. They will continue to use it until someone in power puts a stop to it. Currently, any man - ANY MAN - can claim to be a woman, go into a female only space full of women & girls, and then, in the event he does something horrific, claim to be a woman to get a lesser sentence & be put into a woman’s prison. Of course, no good man would even think to do this. Literally, only the bad men would. And that’s a massive part of the problem. If you want both federal & state legislation changed to ensure that everything up to & including the worst case scenarios can’t happen, write to prime minister @AlboMP, Victorian premier @JacintaAllanMP, Victorian minister for corrections Enver Erdogan, Ro Allen at the @VEOHRC and the federal sex discrimination commissioner at @AusHumanRights. All of their emails are publicly available on their websites. Additionally, contact journalists and pressure them to a) cover this issue and b) ask for statements from every person responsible for this situation. Enough is enough.

I'm seeing quite a bit of comment about this, so I want to make a couple of points. I'm not owed eternal agreement from any actor who once played a character I created. The idea is as ludicrous as me checking with the boss I had when I was twenty-one for what opinions I should hold these days. Emma Watson and her co-stars have every right to embrace gender identity ideology. Such beliefs are legally protected, and I wouldn't want to see any of them threatened with loss of work, or violence, or death, because of them. However, Emma and Dan in particular have both made it clear over the last few years that they think our former professional association gives them a particular right - nay, obligation - to critique me and my views in public. Years after they finished acting in Potter, they continue to assume the role of de facto spokespeople for the world I created. When you've known people since they were ten years old it's hard to shake a certain protectiveness. Until quite recently, I hadn't managed to throw off the memory of children who needed to be gently coaxed through their dialogue in a big scary film studio. For the past few years, I've repeatedly declined invitations from journalists to comment on Emma specifically, most notably on the Witch Trials of JK Rowling. Ironically, I told the producers that I didn't want her to be hounded as the result of anything I said. The television presenter in the attached clip highlights Emma's 'all witches' speech, and in truth, that was a turning point for me, but it had a postscript that hurt far more than the speech itself. Emma asked someone to pass on a handwritten note from her to me, which contained the single sentence 'I'm so sorry for what you're going through' (she has my phone number). This was back when the death, rape and torture threats against me were at their peak, at a time when my personal security measures had had to be tightened considerably and I was constantly worried for my family's safety. Emma had just publicly poured more petrol on the flames, yet thought a one line expression of concern from her would reassure me of her fundamental sympathy and kindness. Like other people who've never experienced adult life uncushioned by wealth and fame, Emma has so little experience of real life she's ignorant of how ignorant she is. She'll never need a homeless shelter. She's never going to be placed on a mixed sex public hospital ward. I'd be astounded if she's been in a high street changing room since childhood. Her 'public bathroom' is single occupancy and comes with a security man standing guard outside the door. Has she had to strip off in a newly mixed-sex changing room at a council-run swimming pool? Is she ever likely to need a state-run rape crisis centre that refuses to guarantee an all-female service? To find herself sharing a prison cell with a male rapist who's identified into the women's prison? I wasn't a multimillionaire at fourteen. I lived in poverty while writing the book that made Emma famous. I therefore understand from my own life experience what the trashing of women's rights in which Emma has so enthusiastically participated means to women and girls without her privileges. The greatest irony here is that, had Emma not decided in her most recent interview to declare that she loves and treasures me - a change of tack I suspect she's adopted because she's noticed full-throated condemnation of me is no longer quite as fashionable as it was - I might never have been this honest. Adults can't expect to cosy up to an activist movement that regularly calls for a friend's assassination, then assert their right to the former friend's love, as though the friend was in fact their mother. Emma is rightly free to disagree with me and indeed to discuss her feelings about me in public - but I have the same right, and I've finally decided to exercise it.

The bought-out New York Times is now trying to convince readers that Roundup is good for crops. There are around 170,000 claims to date about Roundup harming people. Meanwhile, Congress is pushing a pesticide immunity bill that would shield chemical companies from accountability. But that’s just a coincidence, right? Mainstream outlets will pander to whoever funds them.

Who wants to see a massive rally in California to collect signatures to get Voter ID on the ballot next year?! @bennyjohnson @ScottPresler

Well done!

I wonder what it is about a movement campaigning to allow men into protected spaces for women and girls that might attract sexual predators. A mystery for the ages.

@TheSpotlight_X_ @MdBreathe Sadly, many doctors don’t read the boxes. They definitely don’t read the entire package inserts.

@Arkypatriot @stacey_chuck27 @MdBreathe It may have been a safer option over other meds, but I knew this wasn’t n the 90’s and I was just a lowly RN 🤷🏻‍♀️ Nothing is without risk. Also, I was advised by my OB/GYN in the 90’s to take nothing unless it was absolutely necessary.

@MdBreathe Wow. I thought you were one of the good ones. I knew this as an RN in the 90’s during my first pregnancy 🤦🏻‍♀️

Last month RFK Jr. banned mercury-based thiomersal from vaccines. Yesterday President Trump said NO MORE mercury. Manufacturers admitted it could cause brain damage in unborn children—yet kept using it until now. This was criminal.

🧵🪡 Got a frantic call at 4am from a husband who was given my phone number via someone who had it. His pregnant wife is now on a ventilator dying of liver failure trying to “prove” that Tylenol doesn’t cause autism since this is trending in TikTok.

@MissPenguin1755 @Christo81611498 @BelfastBooks And that’s why he gave his BS apology.

@MissPenguin1755 @Christo81611498 @BelfastBooks He’s free to say whatever he wants. Private businesses are free to carry whatever they want. And we are free to spend our money however we want. Freedom of speech does not equal freedom from consequences. The only consequence hateful people like Stephen King understand is 💰

@Kleptosclerosis Apparently, I’ve chosen the option to relive those memories everyday. Long after those I’ve failed have forgiven me. I’m convinced the person we find it most difficult to forgive is ourselves. Maybe that’s the way it should be, but what do I know?

To sell statins, we're told cholesterol damages arteries—in reality, it repairs arterial injury. Statins hence don't prevent death and give 20% of users muscle, liver or nerve damage. Here I show what doctors never tell you about statins and heart disease midwesterndoctor.com/p/the-great-ch…

And answer came there none. If I were to make accusations like this, I'd sure as hell have the evidence to back it up.

@Christo81611498 @MissPenguin1755 @BelfastBooks Especially after an insincere, financially motivated “apology.”

@BelfastBooks @Dancingduck138 @StephenKing Unfortunately, my local independent bookstore is probably dancing a jig in celebration of his death. Would love to send support your way.

Meet Clare Twomey. She’s the Executive Director of York Human Relations Commission. Clare falsely said that I’ve been “calling for violence against them [teachers that celebrated Charlie Kirk’s assassination].” She put a target on my back. I’ve been ✌️. 📍York, Pennsylvania

If you believe free speech is for you but not your political opponents, you're illiberal. If no contrary evidence could change your beliefs, you're a fundamentalist. If you believe the state should punish those with contrary views, you're a totalitarian. If you believe political opponents should be punished with violence or death, you're a terrorist.
