Sorry only news sources reporting this is the Daily Mail and Telegraph, not worth linking to their thoughts on trans women.
Of note is that Eleanora was elected to the spot and backed by ‘Greens for Palestine’ . 2 Weeks later she is out on transphobic grounds and seems to have her suspension leaked to the Daily Mail potentially by someone in the Greens.
Xitter conversation between Greens Party Council and Eleanora
Greens Party Council member Kai Taylor has put the Greens party into disrepute.
She may well be toxic but if that was the main reason she’s being removed, they should be up front about it. And not have a very terf seeming man involved in removing her.
She was suspended (she hasnt yet been removed) because of a media post, not because she is toxic. I explicitly state that two lines below my opinion about her toxicity. Separate items.
Are you deliberately misreading or just seeing what you expect to see ?
I think my unwillingness to accept the party explanation is down to 2 factors:
If the problem was bullying, or specific social media posts, or anything reasonable, that should be a perfect defense against transphobia. Unless the posts reveal protected information, there is no reason to hide behind process. The media is already reporting on it, so make this about the content not the candidate.
Unless he’s had some dramatic change of heart, Kai is clearly a transphobe or sympathizer at best. If he’s running the suspension process, that’s one great reason to be skeptical of anything he says.
I am willing to believe the candidate was difficult but edge cases are where we decide who we are as a society.
edit: I did see you mention antisemitic posts indirectly, but that’s not what I see from the official communication and that is what I was reacting to. I still haven’t seen the actual offensive posts in question.
