Good memes, bad memes, unite towards a united front.
Yeah this is old. The CPB rejected her endorsement. She's no communist, even Jeremy Corbyn was too left-wing for her. This is her throwing a hissy fit because Starmer wasn't being transphobic enough and she didn't want to endorse the Tories even though they represent all her views.
Im surprised she didn't go full right and supported Farage
No she went further and endorsed Posey Parker and TERFs who literally quoted Hitler at TERF rallies, a Farage endorsement would actually be a move to the left somehow.
"Yer a communist, Harry!"
"A communist! A pinko, a red, a fellow traveller, a commie!"
...
"A car crash killed James and Lily?! Preposterous! An outrage, a scandal! Your parents were killed by the CIA, Harry."
And Voldemort was a CIA asset or operative.
Suddenly I need that to be a real fanfic.
"harry, did you vote for the communists?" said j.k. rowling calmly
Too bad it's for anti trans reasons 😔
Really? How's are there communists against trans?
British
I remember a trans comrade speaking on this phenomenon in 2018.
Communist parties do not have a perfect or perhaps even the best track record with regards to progressive issues. I don't blame communism for this, just saying that it's dangerous to assume we're immune to adopting dangerous and foolish social beliefs.
TERF island is called that for a reason, everyone is insane over here.
While they certainly exist, the Communist Party of Britain thankfully is not among them: https://archive.ph/F1Ow4
The Communist Party of Britain affirmed that it supports transgender people’s right to “live equal, full and meaningful lives” after J.K. Rowling, almost as well known at this point for her hatred of trans women as for penning the mega-popular Harry Potter series, expressed tacit support for its candidates. On Saturday, Rowling encouraged her social media followers to vote Communist, a move made in response to the anti-trans feminist group For Women Scotland tweeting that a party spokesperson had told them it stood “in support of [recognizing] the nature of biological sex.” A day later, a statement was released on the party’s official X account clarifying the matter. “For avoidance of doubt, the Communist Party supports the right of trans people to medically transition, to have access to healthcare and live equal, full and meaningful lives, socially, economically and politically,” it said. “We believe that such liberation will only be possible under socialism.” Rowling’s blessing, likely now to be rescinded, came after she published an op-ed in The Times of London on Friday disavowing the Labour Party over its support for trans rights.
They collaborate closely with WPUK so they are 100% transphobic.
Unfortunately they are transphobic, they're just not as transphobic as Rowling is. https://www.communistparty.org.uk/the-gender-recognition-bill-and-equality-law/. It's a longish read but just pick any random sentence in it tbh
the Communist Party rejects gender self-ID as the basis for sex- based entitlements in law to women’s single-sex rights, spaces and facilities. The Party will continue to oppose any proposed legislation – whether at Scottish, Welsh or British level – that seeks to enact such a provision.
We call for ‘sex’ as a protected characteristic under the 2010 Equality Act to be defined as ‘biological sex’.
Ah, big oof
Those are British communists, after all
