Yet people honestly believe the BBC isn't transphobic... somehow.

They call us "biological men who identify as women." At least for now, I'm sure they'll move on to straight up t slurring us soon enough.

"I kept thinking about all the extremist voices promoting hate and division. They are being given so many platforms, while voices that represent kindness, open-mindedness, empathy seem to be scarcer and scarcer."
He's so right. We get bigot-in-chief Farage flapping his gums every bloody day, and Ince is chastised for his OFF-AIR opinions. Cox can't carry the Monkey Cage on his own, he's not a real boy!

I wonder who’s going to replace him on The Infinite Monkey Cage? Brian Cox and Robin Ince has such great chemistry and I would highly recommend their podcast. What a shitty reason to be forced out. Just canceled my BBC Podcast Premium subscription.
I think i can guess why they thought now that they needed to silence him (not that I agree with it) and I bet it has something to do with him not supporting genocide.
