Yea no. Anti-imperialist or ‘leftwing’ movements and gender rights/queer rights are just about the first things that are always targeted because they actually challenge the status quo AND they make for great targets. Especially trans people, because they make for a very small and vulnerable group of people. Many people in the ‘political center’ do not have enough of an issue when these groups are targeted to speak up loudly enough to stop it from happening. And then they’ll come for abortion rights, gay people, etc
Ah yes, cancelling rights (i.e. turning rights to privileges) and using politically charged litigation against citizens, also subverting their rights, is not a threat to democracy, of course! It’s what democracies are known for! Lol
there are a lot of reasons democracy is threatened in the uk, trans rights and palestinian protest are way down the list

It’s very easy to say that when your whole life isn’t at stake
