No one here believes the right wing media, we believe the he victim who is the one in OPs post where they specifically say they are not linking to the right wing sources.

I can’t believe anyone believes what the right wing media write about a left wing party, but be that as it may, Eleanora wasn’t suspended because she was trans, she was suspended because she made comments on social media likely to bring the Greens into disrepute while holding an official post (ordinary members can say what they like, representatives of the party can’t). The party is investigating those comments to see what disciplinary action should be taken and her role is suspended while that happens.
The comments in question were blatantly anti-semitic (as opposed to anti-zionist which I have no problem with) in my opinion, and I doubt she’ll be allowed to retain the post. I’m sure everyone on here understand the difference ? The Daily Mail certainly doesn’t though.

No it doesn’t? Is there any particular comment you’re talking about here? Because I see nothing that indicates that she said anything antisemitic.

And the anti-semitism was what? Her support for Iran against the genocidal US and Israel?
You really should have to qualify smears like this without just vague posting about it. Let others see what you think was anti-semitic and let them judge for themselves.

Once again, precisely zero hard evidence

Zero hard evidence on either side, though. She says she was suspended due to transphobia but provides no evidence that this was the case. There are plenty of Green trans councillors that haven’t been suspended, so what’s going on?
I would not be inclined to pick sides here until the truth actually comes out.

Agreed

What evidence are you looking for ? I’ve stated the Greens have made no formal statement on it - because that’s the process when someone is suspended and their conduct is being reviewed - unlike the Mail I don’t just make shit up to make the readers happy

if the Greens aren’t transphobic, then why did they elect a transphobe for GPRC rep? also, it’s a little suspicious you’re ignoring that despite the screenshots being posted in this thread before you commented.

What did she say

Comments like this are exactly the kind of bullshit populists use to ruin any chance of nuanced interesting conversation.
“I’m here to attack and share nothing back. I’m angry, and everyone else can do the work of proving me wrong.”
It’s the classic low-effort provocation, followed by moving the goalposts when someone actually engages.
Sorry. Not meaning to insult you personally (although god knows it’d cheer me up a little if I have pissed you off)
Maybe try engaging in the discussion instead of using 4 word posts to “call people out”.
There’s a chance there’s some nuance out there. Who knows, try more and you might bump into it.
Or just keep firing off four-word replies and outsourcing the interesting part to everyone else. Whatevs.
