"On 6 May 1933, the Berlin chapter of the German Student Union made an organised attack on Magnus Hirschfeld's Institut für Sexualwissenschaft (Institute of Sex Research).

The institute's library included many thousands of volumes on sexuality and other matters relating to its work. The institute also had a substantial collection of objects, photographs and documents including research, biographies and patient records. Estimates of total size vary. The looted material was witnessed by the international press being loaded on to a truck and, on 10 May, it was taken to the Bebelplatz square at the State Opera, and burned them along with volumes from elsewhere."

JK Rowling toasts ‘TERF VE Day’ and confirms donation to group behind Supreme Court case

Someone said that she's basically our Musk (meaning that HP is like Tesla) and alas they are right. :( The billionaire to Bond villain pipeline is definitely a thing.

Here is a link to all current gov.uk Trans petitions.

Also, let's remember that some people are wonderful. From 2020:

Daniel Radcliffe declares ‘trans women are women’ in response to JK Rowling’s anti-trans tirade

And via Owls (behind paywall for me, but might work for others):

Trans people like me will still be protected by law, no matter what opponents think

ETA: Via Kerk:

A brief summary of the Transgender/Equality Act court case

And from that post, a change.org petition:

Also since I am here, a post about the benefits changes, also with many links.
