CANCELLED comedian Graham Linehan on BBC SUPPRESSION of trans 'truths' - 'SPINELESS!'

My earliest recall of someone being cancelled was Dr David Bellamy, a world wide recognised botanist. He lost his career after being asked a question about climate change. His response cost him his career. I trust you will be able to find out for yourself how this came about. I'm no longer allowed to say due to the rise of censorship here, in the UK. I long for the return of free speech but have at least another 4 years and 10 months left to serve with very few rights left. God help us all.

[@geordiewishart1683]

Have you read the background of the Algerian boxer? I initially assumed it was a biological man who latterly decided to identify as a woman. But it's not so straight forward. It would seem she was born as a woman with female genitalia but with a defect that saw her have a Y chromosome instead of two X. So she would appear to be a proper medical uncertainty. I feel sorry for her. She was brought up as a woman and lived all her life as a woman. She never once identified as male. How can we criticise her for being a man?
