Any more posts conflating trans with pedophilia or mental illness, traveller rights, transgender prisoners, crime from people of a migrant background or any other off topic posting will earn an immediate card and threadban.

They promote the absolutely ascientific codswallop that one can be born in the wrong body. There are so very view " trans children" why on earth would one even dream of introducing more generally what is essentially a new religious dreamspeak that can promote ideological mistruths to very small children. There are children who suffer all manner of body dysphorias, and we do not encourage dysphoria positive training in schools. A child is never born in the wrong body. Sex is binary. They may have gender dysphoria and with their parents should seek proper medical care and counselling. To bolster or promote gender theory in schools is nothing short of effing madness.

Whenever I read people defending O'Gorman and downplaying the whole point of the criticism, it just looks the progressive sycophants are attempting to reduce damage control. Iv worked with Aoife and we have mutual friends through different groups and often ended up back at houses for sessions. Twitter feeds into her "yaz b*tch" ego but her personality is the polar opposite in person. She is melodramatic whenever someone responds to her sh*t, Iv literally witnessed her call out someone for what they've said and whinge when they don't like the response or have no one to back her up. She's a twitter "hun" personality. Tweets like the one above is laughable.

I don't doubt some used it to get at him but a lot of people were genuinely concerned he remained silent on it.
