Seeking support
The BBC has quietly dropped four LGBT+ charities from an information page for transgender people seeking support.
The LGBT Foundation, Mermaids, The Gender Trust, and The Gender Identity Research and Education Society (GIRES) are all registered British charities that provide vital support and advice for trans, non-binary and gender-questioning people.
“Support” in the form of eager encouragement of delusional thinking.
As recently as June 29, they were all listed on a page on the BBC website called “Information and Support: Gender Identity”.
Pages such as this are often linked to under BBC articles or videos covering topics people may need further support or information about, including gender identity, sexual or mental health, and addiction issues.
But signposting to the four charities on the transgender support page has been stripped away with no explanation, leaving behind no information for those seeking help.
Innnnteresting. The truth is emerging so the BBC is carefully backing away?
Mermaids, a charity that supports trans and gender-questioning children and their families, said it was concerned to learn that the BBC had removed trans charities from its trans help page, and called for an immediate explanation.
Yes WHY is the BBC no longer sending people to “charities” that encourage mutilation and/or life on puberty blockers?
Before and after:
Mermaids had better start looking for lawyers.
As always I hope this is a sign that the prevailing blind, unconditional, uncritical, unthinking endorsement of gender ideology is starting to cool off, but, as with the frequently prophesied downfall of Trump, I will have to see it before I believe it.
I wonder how the TRAs are going to shut the BBC down?
I think once the lawsuits start trickling in we can expect the beginning of the end to be upon us, but until then I share your skepticism Bjarte.
I’m looking forward to a future of seeing how people react to the taste of crow.
Naturally, I expect that most staunch advocates of this nonsense will remain such, as it’s a belief grounded in moral claims and only justified post hoc. However, even seeing them have to explain how their pet belief differs from all the other pet beliefs that have been shredded by reason and science.
