Quite offended that Times are blaming Stonewall for numerous trans and feminist adjustments that make staff and students' life easier at Warwick uni.

That was not Stonewall, it was the work of students and staff over many many years.

Elaine Scattermoon (scattermoon), quote-tweeting Ruth Pearce:

It's really quite sad seeing the media try and make Stonewall responsible for all trans progress in this country in their attempt to paint them as the sinister villains behind trans rights, especially given Stonewall themselves were an obstacle towards that until the mid 2010s.

Ultimately they want to make transness seem a top-down conspiracy rather than a grassroots community because if they acknowledged the latter they'd realise both that they're attacking vulnerable people not powerful organisations, and that they're trying to fight the tide.

Halcyon Ember (HalcyonEmber), replying to Elaine Scattermoon:

Good job there's no historical precedent for minority communities presented as a secretly powerful organisation
