Why is the UK like hardcore TERF land of all things? Like most other places they just roll it all up in one big ball of gay hate, but the UK seems to have an endless supply of middle class weirdos writing newspaper columns that are all "I fully support gay people and multiculturalism and remaining in the EU. I just very much hate trans women specifically and won't be bullied by twitter for it!"

When homosexuality was "partly decriminalized"? I mean, this isn't a formal hypothesis or anything like that, but when you have generations of people being raised in that context, it is very easy for conservative or reactionary tendencies to dominate the public thinking in the process by treating as a matter of perversion, even in fronts that we usually would call "progressive" but IDK any movement more self-defeating/destructive than the british terfs in the way they go along with antifeminists entirely to their benefit just to own transwomen, without realizing that hey these guys are already clowning you

He recently had an episode on his show about this exact topic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_vK-keIhmEY I'm not about to go dig through his columns but they'll be there on the Guardian, which I've found generally otherwise quite TERFy for exactly these reasons.

you'd think an eel breeder and seller of 50 years would know that european eels are an endangered species so he could only sell them within the EU as the bloc doesn't allow import or export. And that out of the EU, he can't sell them anywhere except domestically because the UK is a CITES signatory anyway.

It's the maximum fat saturation point you can reach with a fish, and if you have something to soak that up its just so good. By the way what's the reception of brexit in the UK? All I've heard is that the papers are doing victory laps for boris, while here in the EU everybodies slapping each other on the back for doing "the smart thing" while everybodies a bit blue balled from nothing spectacular happening anymore.
