A few last minute spaces if this sounds like you. Mindful people build the future. Starts Sunday 5.30 - 7.00 at St Andrew's on the Terrace in Wellington. Could there be societal impacts of widely adopted meditation? Could those impacts include you? scoop.co.nz/stories/…

@AnneliseJoy @radionz a) its a news website - publicly funded addressing an issue about a bill that has been withdrawn b) to the right of the article there are more stories written from an uncritical pro trans view c) You are claiming fear,ignorance & hate? I don't see that. What are you seeing?

@felidaebay @radionz Hi Bay, TERF, as you well know is a slur used to try to incite violence & discrimination against feminists who are critical of transgender ideology. Please don't use it. If you do you are trying to normalise slur. #terfisaslur terfisaslur.com

@felidaebay @radionz I think you are mistaken with all of this. I don't think either accusation is true. Neither is your assertion of pre-colonisation transgenderism. Do you have proof? Otherwise you are defaming a group of women - telling lies to discredit them.

So this is @radionz's grudging attempt to cover the issue from a feminist POV. Nothing about the speakers? What about the evidence presented? What about explaining gender critical? Or perhaps not using it. Its great to have balance but what about linking to the SUFW website? twitter.com/radionz/…

@RedcapRage @JCE_PC Why are you calling me a bigot and a transphobe - a stupid term - when you have no evidence of either? Perhaps your lack of actual arguments means shouting insults is the best you can do?
