A week ago, a headscarfed commander in Sudan was shown on the British-armed RSF's own film ordering her men to carry on raping enemy women, "to cleanse their bloodlines." She was not an exceptional case. The Mummy Issues theory of terrorism is the kind of thing that gives feminism a bad name. Yet it is guaranteed a hearing, because its leading proponents are also rightly opposed to gender self-identification, and that has enabled media that had never previously paid that issue any attention to co-opt them into the cheerleading squad for the genocide of Gaza, where the Tony Blair Institute was about to become the Viceregency at the same time as it became responsible for digital ID in Britain. Who are the handmaidens now?
But contrary to their crowing tonight, feminists, never mind that small minority of them which was sound on the definition of a woman and on related questions such as surrogacy and the commercial sex industry, have not overthrown Tim Davie and Deborah Turness. I wish that those and others had been brought down by their transmania, by the frauds that they had perpetrated first against Jeremy Corbyn and then in favour of Keir Starmer, and by their failure to broadcast Gaza: Doctors Under Attack. But none of that has happened. It was Donald Trump, who has chartered himself as lord proprietor of this American colony. And being glad to see the back of Davie and Turness does not translate into being pleased that Trump was now running the BBC.
They were proven to have covered up the fact a Gaza documentary was narrated by the son of a terrorist. Surely that should have been enough to bring them down?
ReplyDeleteIt should have been for pulling that vitally important documentary.
