Next, let's go to the EU era & Grace Campbell who went to court in Strasbourg in the 70s to have corporal punishment banned in UK schools. She won and Westminster had to legislate. What. A. Mama. https://t.co/qQMAcPhtZz /2
Elizabeth Wiskemann gathered intelligence undercover in Switzerland during WWII. When the Allies refused to bomb Auschwitz she sent a coded msg she knew wd be intercepted & halted Hungarian Jewish deportations. Later she was Professor of International Relations at Edinburgh /3

Many courageous Scottish women got involved in the Spanish Civil War 1936 - 39. Scotland has a long tradition of banging anti-Fascist heroines. Rabbit hole alert: I wrote a thread about Spain here already š Fill. Your. Boots.
Cos I'm in Spain - a thread of Scottish foremothers who fought fascism during the Civil War 1936-9. Cos fighting facism is important. This is Annie Murray Knight - a nurse. Her stories of Italian planes dropping sweet tins with bombs inside, which blew up kids, are harrowing. /1 pic.twitter.com/NCPcxDo0S8

We also have a long tradition of artists whose work takes them all over Europe. Notorious suffragette Ethel Moorhead trained under Czech legend Alfons Mucha. She was the 1st Scottish suffragette to be forcibly fed too. I love this mural of her - what a legend. /5

-> Because D2C brands are able to directly establish a relationship with the consumer, they are able to provide greater personalization & faster TAT for after-sales issues. I have personally interacted with many co-founders of these brands after purchase to provide feedback.
-> Lack of infrastructure shackles allows these brands to increase their CACs & rope in consumers with cashbacks, rewards, subscriptions, and other gifting bundles. Brands have also collaborated together in the form of cross-overs (Dope x Svami, The Whole Truth x KC Roasters).
-> I personally discovered half of these brands through @CRED_club. CRED claims that their 3 million members spend as much as 40% higher than average consumers. If this holds true, CRED Pay, launched in collaboration with @Razorpay, is a golden opportunity for D2C brands.
-> The craft coffee revolution has reached India. Newer flavours, blends, roast profiles, and the finer subtleties of coffee are finding takers. Here's a tweet from @miten highlighting some of these amazing brands on CRED.

Examples:
says "I would guess". He guesses wrong but that's not the point. The point is that the "trans" part makes it more significant and important for him. Femicides are just femicides - an every day occurance. Just women.

says "the statistics are staggering". They are.
Because for some reason 28 murders of transwomen in 1 year in the US is an epidemic, but 6 femicides A DAY isn't.

I asked one of the "transwomen suffer more than 'cis' women" people why things became more significant when it was males who were killed. He blocked
I asked @Colmogorman if the threats of rape and murder that women face when debating issues that affect them were as abusive as women not believing transwomen are women. He blocked me.

I guess that means no, threats against women aren't as significant. https://t.co/taLX80T6Jq pic.twitter.com/HfYeyzs1sB
It's not a competition, of course (unless you are Jolyon Maugham and want to override female consent, then it really is a competition that you cheat to win) but the argument is the force behind transactivism. Without the perpetual victimhood, it's just men making demands of women
