Forget what you think about Biden and Harris' overall politics: it is absolutely astonishing that the attitudes of several leading British "liberal" and "moderate" commentators towards trans people is far, far closer to Donald Trump than it is to Joe Biden or Kamala Harris.

Snap em up! I wrote a piece for issue 2 on The Matrix and big data

You know, it's almost as if they want to distract people from their lethally failed response to the pandemic and the consequences of a disastrous Brexit?

If this was happening in Hong Kong, ministers would be lining up to condemn these as the thuggish tactics of an authoritarian regime.
