The courts need a lot of evidence to do that though, and it’s a long process. So realistically it doesn’t happen unless it has to

Are you saying that the criminal group shouldn’t be banned because the genocide is wrong?

Disability discrimination is rife in schools and work, with many having to attend tribunals Disabled people are at elevated risk of crime victimisation including sexual violence, assault and domestic abuse. They’re at increased risk of mental health issues and even suicide
There’s the knock on effect as well, including strain on parents of disabled children.
Pride gives us a voice, and raises awareness about how we’re mistreated. It’s also a way for us to be positive about ourselves. My disability gives me skills and strengths others don’t, but many can’t see past the negatives of my disability.

I also agree he’s using a generational word. I personally think he’s got anti social personality disorder and at the very least he’s a documented dv abuser, they’re manipulative. They can be thick as fuck, but with good manipulation skills

Lady Butterfly she/her@lemmy.worldto A Boring Dystopia@lemmy.world•In 6 hours it will be illegal to say "I support Palestine Action" in the UK, with a sentence of up to 14 years in prison.311·10 days agoIt’s important to remember that the headline refers to the group Palestine action, which has carried out vandalisation of historical pieces, occupations of property, destruction etc (see here). So it’s a group that fits the UK definition of an extremist group.
Some political groups (or even branches of them) can be political cults trapping members with coercive control It’s not always idealistic well meaning people. The court that decreed them an unlawful group will have seen a lot of info we didn’t.
I think we need to look deeper than the headline

I look at soft outcomes though, so making the children feel heard and like they matter. It gets me through.

Abusers are always selfish and generally manipulative and liars. They have little or no empathy for their partner and rarely care how the partner feels. They’re often highly successful in their field, because they have such great manipulation skills.
