    The "shareToken" in the url suggests you're a subscriber to the Times. Reading that article ought to be enough to make you want to reconsider that decision.

    “in his sixties, expected to be treated like a woman” “gay people and lesbians” “numerous people refused to fall into line” “I wans’t against D&I, but…” “the world went mad” “it wasn’t just the trans issue” “all that safe spaces shit” “the trans problem” “bullyong” “there was a sort of progressive madness going on” “against men who said they were women” “the trans orthodoxy”

    And this beautiful final bit about how universities are not expected to think :

    ““It’s what you might expect of arts institutions or universities,” I said to Unsworth, “but we are journalists. Journalists are sceptical people. They don’t just lie down. They’re supposed to stand up there and think about it first.”

      The problematic nature of archive.is aside, there’s not much value to be had in preserving articles propagating transphobia.
