In Cumbria? Sounds more like Portland Oregon, or some Californian university campus.

BBC Children in Need has helped fund a group that claims gender-critical beliefs are rooted in “white supremacy”.

Anti-Racist Cumbria has claimed that opposition to gender ideology – the idea that people can choose to become a man or woman – is rooted in “patriarchy” and “oppression”.

The charity that works with local schools claimed that the views of JK Rowling and other gender-critical feminists are the result of “white supremacy”.

In a lengthy statement, the charity added that “defining womanhood as ‘biological’ is dangerous” and can lead down a “slippery slope of white supremacy thinking”….

Anti-Racist Cumbria claimed following the Supreme Court decision: “The activism of so-called ‘gender-critical feminists’, supported by the likes of JK Rowling and the Trump movement, will not stop here.

“The fight against trans rights does not exist in isolation, and although it is dressed up as ‘women’s rights’, it’s a direct result of patriarchy and white supremacy as systems of oppression.”

The post also included an image of JK Rowling smoking a cigar “on her superyacht”, the charity claimed in a picture caption, while many “transgender people have experienced homelessness”.

The lengthy article about the gender ruling, on the “resources” section of the charity’s website, also touched on issues of women’s safety, which it claimed were preludes to “fascism”.

Gosh.
