The ridiculous 'war on woke' causes real harm. I am a married woman with children and grandchildren. Apparently I'm trans because my jaw isn't feminine enougn. The person who asserted this has never even met me but 'the camera doesn't lie'. It's madness and my experience is nowhere near as awful as other people have to endure daily. When I was informed about this, the person who witnessed the assertion thought it was a hoot. I didn't because it crossed my mind that the delusional 'trans spotter' could well be policing women who want to use a public toilet.
This is ultimately the outcome of it. Hateful people use this as a way to attack anyone they feel isn’t fitting their ideal of gender roles. As a trans person myself it’s been baffling to watch the “we can always tell” crowd repeatedly get it wrong and attack others. I suppose they actually can’t always tell… It’s almost like all of our bodies are different and the way all of us want to express ourselves may vary, too.
Diversity brings division, look at political diversity, the far left and right cant come together and work together, they both hate each other. look at culture diversity, there are cultures out there that oppress women and LGBT community. if you want less division you want less diversity as you want more people people on the same page. People with same views same cultures are less divided and will happily get along.

I have never been given a blood glucose machine nor ever been prescribed insulin. Ever since then I have been trying to get them to overturn their decision and when they realise I am not insulin dependent I still had to buy a driver's license and they refused to refund me for it. When I gain access to the independent assessor they did not contact me to determine what my complaint rather appraised the procedures of the DVLA. They also made a claim that the licence fee was waived, I suppose the credit card statement showing I paid for it would be a lie to you too. And throughout the process they would email me an encrypted letter attachment but without the requisite to encrypt it. The email would be from a do not reply email. And when you lodge a complaint again. I have had conversations telling me I have a licence then I am told I have not others in which it's being held by.

Imagine that you voted for Danny Kruger, thinking that you voted for Freddy Kruger.
I phoned the DVLA and i was asked if an Ally. I guess my answer was wrong because they refused to help
"If at first you don't succeed, try the same joke again but flip the subjects and don't worry that it still doesn't make sense"
@@django3422 What does not make sense? That in July 23 they removed my driver licence and offered a medical license but I would have had to agree to take a blood test when I drove and for every 2 hours there after and I would also have to have insulin. I have never been given a blood glucose machine nor ever been prescribed insulin. Ever since then I have been trying to get them to overturn their decision and when they realise I am not insulin dependent I still had to buy a driver's license and they refused to refund me for it. When I gain access to the independent assessor they did not contact me to determine what my complaint rather appraised the procedures of the DVLA. They also made a claim that the licence fee was waived, I suppose the credit card statement showing I paid for it would be a lie to you too.
And throughout the process they would email me an encrypted letter attachment but without the requisite to encrypt it. The email would be from a do not reply email. And when you lodge a complaint again. I have had conversations telling me I have a licence then I am told I have not others in which it's being held by. Specialist team but they do not express who that is (medical team who do not take calls).
When you phone them they enquire how my day is and on one occasion. LBGTQQIAAM stuff
If you provide your email I could provide a copy of the correspondence
Btw overturn is code for compensation for the months that I was not legally allowed to drive despite meeting the criteria to do so
@@greamespens1460 Cool story.
@@django3422 I have even written to Steve Baker MP who is the former minister of the DoT. There is also a parliament body but will require my own MP to bring it to their attention.
How can future generations be expected to decide the future when they can't even decide if they're a man, woman, or a toaster?
When does conscription start ?
Rich lost.

Its so arrogant isnt it from the likes of O'Brien and friends. We'll proffer highly contentious views on things like trans issues and immigration and diversity but if you challenge it,its on you, youre the one stoking things and creating culture wars. Its genius in its own malevolent way.
Hardly contentious, trans people have been around about as long as culture has
@@kingflynxi9420 I'm telling you mutilating kids is contentious. I for one oppose you on the matter.
Nah Edward,
haha flippin Edward
@@kingflynxi9420Most of these culture wars "issues" are just different pockets of vulnerable people who just want to be left alone to live their lives.
Imagine being so confident and comfortable in your own skin you'd have to be to make the combating of these people your entire lifes work. Sounds pretty miserable to me.
@@Edward-cv2gw that’s not happening.
Demonisation of Leave voters has to be right up there no O'Brien? It's your listeners who have just made things into a war each time.
Are you comparing being a leave voter to being treated as a second class citizen? Maybe you should knock on your head and check if there's anything rattling around in there.
"Demonisation of Leave voters..."
Just say it: Brexit voters.
Thank about what you have just said 🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱
You mean as apart from the demonisation of 'Remoaners' at the time?
Unlike the demonisation of 'Project Fear' and 'Remoaners'? Smh.
