Episode 81: The Labour Party and Transgenderism
Jun 27, 2024
Hannah

It is just one week before the UK General Election is held on July 4th, tipped to be won by the Labour Party. We discuss Labour's relationship to Trans, the function of their 'two sides' rhetoric, and why Jeremy Corbyn given his own experiences should perhaps feel some sympathy towards gender critical feminists. Plus, the Left's radio silence over racist porn, transgenderism as a problem for women in the Global South, how people in politics excavate their personalities, Jewish philosopher Maimonides's view of lesbianism, the mythology of ‘white feminism’, the instrumentalisation of conversion therapy, and how the medical establishment have found in transgenderism a way to monetise autism. Also, who we are going to vote for, the groundhog day mistreatment of women on the Left by the Left, and Jen does a Keir Starmer impression!
