I’m autistic and can confirm that I am not a vegetable. If I were a vegetable I would be a carrot. The only way to end the culture wars is for Labour to drastically improve the material conditions of living for large proportions of Uk society. They must drastically reduce inequality in UK society.

The ridiculous 'war on woke' causes real harm. I am a married woman with children and grandchildren. Apparently I'm trans because my jaw isn't feminine enougn. The person who asserted this has never even met me but 'the camera doesn't lie'. It's madness and my experience is nowhere near as awful as other people have to endure daily. When I was informed about this, the person who witnessed the assertion thought it was a hoot. I didn't because it crossed my mind that the delusional 'trans spotter' could well be policing women who want to use a public toilet.

This is ultimately the outcome of it. Hateful people use this as a way to attack anyone they feel isn’t fitting their ideal of gender roles. As a trans person myself it’s been baffling to watch the “we can always tell” crowd repeatedly get it wrong and attack others. I suppose they actually can’t always tell… It’s almost like all of our bodies are different and the way all of us want to express ourselves may vary, too.

A woman aware of her surroundings - not locally, but transatlantic. Steve Bannon, populism coach to Euro authoritarians and then in 2015, Trump, deserves credit for stuffing cultural wedge issues and slogans such as the Göebbelsy "mainstream media" into the echo chamber. That chamber is a lending library to xenophobes and nationalists, be they upstart politicians or the disenfranchised who vote for them. Not an original thought in the mix, but then supporters don't look beyond their own shores to spot the duplication.

It's attitudes like Danny Kruger that have meant that Britain, once the top of ILGA ratings in Europe back in 2015, has now slumped to 15th place in recent years. ILGA is an organisation that monitors LGBTQ+ rights in countries across the world, based on a country's abilities to protect civil liberties, police hate speech and crime, and recognise autonomy for marginalised groups. This latest iteration of the Conservatives have created a hostile environment towards LGBTQ+ folk, with particular nastiness reserved for the trans and gender divergent communities, and it's cost us our once proud position as a leader in civil rights. We are now behind most of Western and Northern Europe, and what's letting us down this culture war where politicians purposefully misgender trans folk, don't challenge hate crime, and don't overturn cruel legislation that only hurts the most vulnerable in society.

The irony is that there are quite a few Reform supporters on the spectrum, especially as they provide simplified responses to complex issues, are potentially more vulnerable to manipulative messaging, and are often attracted to fringe beliefs. I say that as someone with ASD

To normal decent people: Woke means you're aware of others and their possibly different upbringing/circumstance as well as our wider contextual environment. To right wing people: Anything I don't like. eg. This alarm clock is woke or the non stop rain is work or LGBT people are woke. etc etc.

@@django3422 What does not make sense? That in July 23 they removed my driver licence and offered a medical license but I would have had to agree to take a blood test when I drove and for every 2 hours there after and I would also have to have insulin. I have never been given a blood glucose machine nor ever been prescribed insulin. Ever since then I have been trying to get them to overturn their decision and when they realise I am not insulin dependent I still had to buy a driver's license and they refused to refund me for it. When I gain access to the independent assessor they did not contact me to determine what my complaint rather appraised the procedures of the DVLA. They also made a claim that the licence fee was waived, I suppose the credit card statement showing I paid for it would be a lie to you too. And throughout the process they would email me an encrypted letter attachment but without the requisite to encrypt it. The email would be from a do not reply email. And when you lodge a complaint again. I have had conversations telling me I have a licence then I am told I have not others in which it's being held by. Specialist team but they do not express who that is (medical team who do not take calls). When you phone them they enquire how my day is and on one occasion.
