A Steamroller Crushes Everything In Its Path.

They just don’t care, they have been so stirred up that they attack anyone who is different. The far-right sharks are on a feeding frenzy. But she has our backs!
A cisgender sportswoman, who takes part in competitive powerlifting, is using her TikTok to reveal the constant attacks she faces from anti-trans trolls on her gender identity.

But her videos have been constantly criticised by trolls who have accused her of being a man and “cheating” the system.

On Tuesday (25 July), she posted a video captioned: “This idea that trans women are ‘cheating’ is based on the belief that people born as men are automatically stronger 100 per cent of the time. Y’all aren’t. Sit down.” 

Her video was in direct response to a user who asked: “Are you really proud of cheating the system?” 

In text over the video, Laura wrote: “No, but I am proud of hurting your feelings by just existing. Once ya’ll realise that men aren’t magically stronger from birth, you’ll stop accusing women of cheating when they’re strong.” 
Because she looks masculine the sharks are after her.

These right-wingers don’t care if they hurt anyone. I can’t imagine what it is like as a cis woman having your gender questioned all the time by these knuckleheads that the Republicans have dragged out of the swamp.

Ghana is set to pass an anti-homosexuality law after its Supreme Court blocked a legal challenge.

Same-sex intercourse is already illegal in the West African nation, and is punishable by up to three years in jail.

The Ghanaian parliament has been debating the Human Sexual Rights and Ghanaian Family Values bill for two years, with most MPs in favour of it.

It would criminalise same-sex relations, being transgender and advocating for LGBTQ+ rights (which alone is punishable by up to 10 yeas in jail under the bill), Reuters reported.

A legal challenge, filed by academic researcher Amanda Odoi, said the proposed legislation would affect donor aid and other financial support for the country, according to the news agency.

However, the Supreme Court ruled last week that her arguments were not convincing enough to grant an injunction, meaning Ghana’s parliament has a clear path to getting the bill through its final stages and signed into law.
And Ghana and Uganda are not the only countries in Africa attacking us…
Kenya is also considering an anti-homosexuality bill. The Family Protection Act would see a complete ban on activities that “promote homosexuality”, including openly identifying as LGBTQ+ or wearing Pride emblems.
