Wow. Here's Oxfam's Pride Month video.
"Happy #Pride2023 to all! Oxfam believes that a more equal & just world is only possible when people of all orientations, gender identities and expressions have agency over their lives and can receive protection in the times of crises. Because none of us are safe until all of us are safe. This June, we call to #ProtectThePride"
Short and nasty, including this image…
…which manages a kind of updated Der Sturmer vibe.
Some comments:
"Imagine how intimidated you would be if you worked at Oxfam and – as is your legal right – held gender critical beliefs. This is harassment and discrimination."
"I'm marking it by not paying vulnerable people I am meant to be helping for sex. Hope all Oxfam's employees are doing the same. For once."
"Your image of a woman with the word terf is unlawful harassment and discrimination against the protected characteristic of belief following Forstater v GCD. It's also openly misogynistic. I will be complaining to the Charity Commission tomorrow."
"Is Oxfam a hate group?"
"This video is disgraceful. You're promoting the bullying of women. It is both misogynistic and homophobic. Take it down."
"What the f*cking hell was that?"
Update: yes, the JK Rowling reference is clear enough.
All they (@falanafilms for @oxfamcampaigns) have done is replace the poppy with a "Terf" badge. H/T to @harlot_scara for pointing this out. Labelling @jk_rowling as representing hate group preying on LGBT folks online (or offline?) is certainly a bold move for a charity. https://t.co/vhuWGPaMvb pic.twitter.com/rsxsC0o5iG

Update 2: Oxfam, unsurprisingly, have now removed the video.
