Post No. 3,193 - From this week's coming reflections and news post: the problem of appeasement in human rights

From this week's coming reflections and news post:

The appeasement problem also exists in the human rights arena of life:   “As Labour targets trans rights, Scotland can do better”   https://www.thenational.scot/politics/25326400.labour-targets-trans-rights-scotland-can-better/   “... But here’s the catch: when it comes to vilifying and ostracising ­marginalised people, there is no sweet spot that ­unscrupulous politicians can hit to ­satisfy the agitators. A case in point: so-called “gender critical” campaigners are still ­angry about the Labour education guidance because it doesn’t go far enough.   ...    You can’t control the fires of hate by adding just enough fuel, or by ignoring it – you can only fight it head-on. by Caitlin Logan, Columnist, The National Scot

Remember: we generally need to be more human being rather than human doing, to mind our Mӕgan, and to acknowledge that all misgendering is an act of active transphobia/transmisia that puts trans+ lives at risk & accept that all insistence on the use of “trans” as a descriptor comes with commensurate use of “cis” as a descriptor to prevent “othering” (just as binary gendered [men’s and women’s] sporting teams are either both given the gender descriptor, or neither).
