Ziggurat , an Europe in Schools told not to teach about gender identity

I am curious on how school can skip the whole gender identity part considering how central it is in social science and life-science.

i like the idea in saying that boys and girls are the same and that it doesn't impact who they are more than having blonde hair or large feets. However, if you through art/litterature/history you can quickly find out that men and women aren't treated the same. If you to basic biology, you come to some "difference between boys and girls", and may want to discuss which of these difference are biology, and which one are sociology.

Then, it's not like LGBT and intersex individual are novelty, and that kids won't ask question about them (selves). So again something pretty hard to skip. To take medieval history, I don't know how much British kid know about the "acursed king" and the 100 years war, but Edward II being more sexually interested in Lord Despenser than in his wife Isabel the she wolf from France played a big role in these historical sequence of events

Kachilde ,

When these fools talk about ‘gender identity’, they don’t mean cis, hetero-normative gender identity. They assume that goes without saying because everyone thinks like them.

Would love to see them flip their lids when teachers start handing out barbies and tutus to pre-school boys.

If only there was some kind of agreed set of conventional rules that could stop this kinda thing... Well since no one is gonna stop them they have no reason to stop. Who knows what else they can get away with? The sky is the limit when it comes to war crimes these days.

Fuck the Geneva Convention, I guess. There’s a lovely place in The Hague with Putin’s name on it.

Maalus ,

The geneva convention is for the weaker countries so the bullies can then point and go "SEE, THEY WARCRIMING". The only way to apply anything to any leader of Russia, the entire country would need to capitulate. And good luck with capitulating Russia, many have tried.

So giving a platform to proven enemies of free speech and democratic systems is supporting democracy and free speech?

ECB ,

It's a classic example of the Paradox of Tolerance...

autotldr Bot , an Europe in National Conservatism Conference: Right-wing Brussels event resumes after legal U-turn

This is the best summary I could come up with:


An international right-wing conference in Brussels has been allowed to go ahead on its second day after a ban by the local mayor was overturned.

Belgium's top administrative court said in an overnight ruling that the ban violated the country's constitutional right to peaceful assembly.

Brexiteer Nigel Farage, Hungary's Prime Minister Viktor Orban and several other right-wing European politicians are attending the event.

His spokesperson said he believed cancelling events or preventing attendance and no-platforming speakers was "damaging to free speech and to democracy as a result".

The UK's Mr Farage, who spoke at the event on Tuesday morning, condemned the decision to shut it down as an attempt to stifle free speech.

About 100 people, including members of group called the "Antifascist co-ordination of Belgium", protested outside the Claridge venue where the conference was held on Tuesday evening.

artist Stéphane Barret had to rely on photos and videos to create the sculpture.

Did they? Because he doesn't look white in any of the results on Google

That wax figure looks like a vampire version of The Rock was bitten by another vampire to make him even more pale.
