i find it hard to say terf island has gotten worse since the 1950s.

I meant since 2013, because yeah, it did get better for a little while. And now they're policing the bathrooms.

I sometimes still wonder why it got worse after. I think it's got to do with Putin invading Ukraine's Crimea and concurrently, spreading disinformation in the UK and US, causing Trump to win, and Trump in turn spreading even more hatred...

But that they could win was also reinforced by long standing social issues; the lack of proper and affordable housing, free healthcare, (and later, enormous inflation) for one!

In times like these, oligarchs try their hardest to indoctrinate the populace that playing out against each other is preferable as otherwise, groups they dislike get rights.

When these marginalised groups don't get into the news much nor that negatively (but do get support from politicians), and the socioeconomic circumstances are good for the bourgeoise (and the proletariat too), I think it would be much better.

i would not be surprised if some decades from now it's common knowledge that russia is responsible for a very large part of the shit we're going through currently, basically all the far right parties seem to have kremlin hands shoved so far up their asses it's a wonder we don't see fingers when they yawn
