Post No. 3,387 - A test for assessing responses to E_st__n files revelations

After reading “So the E_st__n scandal is about politics? Silly me for thinking it’s about the mass abuse of women and girls”   https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/feb/06/j______-e_st__n-scandal-politics-mass-abuse-women-girls   “Obsessing over individual players and political chaos leaves less time to focus on the misogyny”   (and this, on the clueless men, and this on their toxic loyalty), I have crystallised my concerns and thinking about the responses to the E_st__n file revelations into a test: 

is the response being examined about power structures and the powerful, as most corporate media is and has been focused on for years, or the victims who have been wanting to be listened to and validated for years?   

If the former, the response is part of the problem; if the latter, potentially part of the solution. 



Possible flaws 

Where I can, I will try to highlight possible flaws / issues you should consider: 

  • there may be flawed logical arguments in the above: to find out more about such flaws and thinking generally, I recommend Brendan  Myers’ free online course “Clear and Present Thinking” 
  • I could be wrong - so keep your thinking caps on, and make up your own minds for yourself.

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).
