I must just share this gem from a #mumsnet thread on village shows. #VillageLife
Aujourd'hui, j'ai appris que Ian Katz, un des principaux rédacteurs du #Guardian jusque 2013, a été marié pendant 30 ans et jusqu'en 2019 avec Justine Roberts, la fondatrice de #Mumsnet (en 2000, un forum d'aide à la maternité devenu nid à terfs), avec laquelle il a eu 4 enfants.

J'ai tâché de vérifier ces informations, car l'article que je cite un peu plus haut, quoique évocateur quant à nos illusions d'une presse neutre inexistante, fait de nombreux raccourcis et omissions pour lier Guardian (journal britannique plutôt à gauche avec une attitude transphobe certaine) et Mumsnet (forum coopté par les #TERF britanniques), alors qu'en regardant les dates, ces deux-là se sont séparés 5 ans après le départ de Katz pour Channel 4 (après avoir loupé une promo de rédacteur en chef) et un an avant que Mumsnet n'interdise l'usage des mots "cisgenre" et "terf" sur ses forums.
La #transphobie dans les journaux britanniques reste un réel problème, une source de stress considérable et une source d'attaques parfois mortelles envers toute personne perçue comme trans quelle que soit la raison.
C'est aussi une dérive qui n'est pas exclusive à la #GrandeBretagne; on peut aussi l'observer en #France, essentiellement à #Marianne, #LeFigaro et #LePoint (sans parler des torchons d'extrême-droite) et en #Belgique quand #LaLibre et d'autres journaux se mettent à relayer ces titres sans filtre ni précaution.
Merci à tous·tes les journalistes vigilant·es sur cette question.

"It’s a tough topic, media transphobia. It’s complex. It’s nuanced. You can almost forget that top editor Ian Katz — formerly the deputy editor of the Guardian, then the editor of BBC’s Newsnight, now head of programming for Channel 4 — was, until quite recently, married to Justine Roberts, co-founder of TERF forum Mumsnet, and that they were together for twenty-five years."

#Mumsnet is starting to see the logical conclusion of their obsession with trans people, lol:
Here's a quiz for ya: How is this #Mumsnet post any different from those conservatives complaining about how progressives are "destroying the nuclear family" or some shit?
Over on #Mumsnet, people are comparing notes about moving into houses they had just bought and finding stuff previous owners left behind. So far, the winner is the person who found an actual bomb.
In second place the person who found a puppy left behind and who got the previous owners to come and collect it instead of taking it to a rescue. WTF?
When I moved out of my last place, I left the fridge-freezer (by agreement two days before I left), a bottle of champagne and a roll of bog paper.
Typical #Mumsnet stuff. They are fatally allergic to anything queer related. Imagine walking through the store and almost getting a panic attack when you see a rainbow flag or anything LGBT+.

Over on #Mumsnet, they have taken down a whole BOARD full of topics on the royal family. I don't know what the latest speculations are about but given some of the stuff that goes unchallenged on there, they must be pretty startling.
CW: Mumsnet transphobia
#Mumsnet shows us again that their "reasonable concerns" usually come down to "my made up porn fantasy".
There was a debate on #mumsnet the other day about whether it's ok to eat breakfast (as in FEB) for dinner. That site is full of people obsessed with class who haven't worked out that being obsessed with class is a marker for not having much.
ANYWAY I've got no class at all so I've just had a fry-up for dinner although I did jazz it up a bit by frying prosciutto as I didn't have bacon. Also made it interesting by using up a garlic naan with it. #FullEnglishBreakfast #FEB

Over on #Mumsnet, someone has got an APPOINTMENT to go and buy jewellery at Tiffany and wants to know IF THERE IS A DRESS CODE FOR DOING THIS.
I haven't dared to reply.
This is the intellectual "high point" of the "gender critical debate" going on over at #Mumsnet. Absolutely laughable and cringe.

#Mumsnet transphobes seem to have completely bought into the trappings of neoliberalism with this "benevolent billionaire" nonsense.
Seriously; according to Google she's worth $1.1 billion nowadays... These donations are like table scraps to her.

Hmm... Feeling like your rights are being eroded. If only trans people could relate to that? 🤔
You're in a hate cult, mate.
