The whole Green movement, in the sense of the political party, has a long, long history of this kind of stupidity and sunsequent vile attitudes to women and children, at least internationally, being a nice haven for the sorts of people - let's be clear, the sorts of people who are pedophiles - who set out in the 70s to 'free' children to make their 'own choices' about sex ie. have sex with adults who want to have sex with kids. Same sorts of people who founded and joined the Paedohile Information Exchange (PIE) in the UK. They were and are all outright rank pedophiles.
It all comes with the territory of considering oneself a sexual revolutionary and thus by definition supporting 'liberation' of all and any kinds. Including 'liberation' of kids to have sex with adults and for male rapists and perverts to wear womanface, invade women's spaces and call themselves the most oppressed person ever while being handed every prize and opportunity and freedom that exists, at the expense of others.
When one realises the foundational text of queer/gender studies (Thinking Sex - Notes for a Radical Theory of Sexuality) by Gayle Rubin, 1984) aggressively defends active male pedophiles as an
oppressed class of men who be be correctly recognised as such in the future and cites one Tom O'Carroll, notorious PIE founder and pedophile as an academic source (boy fucker Tom published a rather vile book in the 80s about being a nonce and proud that was reviewed as a serious piece of work, lol, what a time to be alive), it makes one look at the various bedfellows and fruits of it rather closely in retrospect. You realise why stuff that is a total scandal has been packaged into various left wing causes at various points whether it be PIE tagging along with Gay Liberation, a theory of 'child liberation' that lead to Tatchell openly defending sex with nine year olds as late as the 1990s, Harry Hay, he of the Radical Fairies and early gay rights activist, openly marching with NAMBLA in the US.
When you have leading European Green lights such a Daniel Cohn-Bendit (Green MEP) who wrote a book openly talking about having sexual escapades with the five year old girls in the school he worked in in the 70s, and this goes without censure within his own party until decades later, well ....
Green PR problem – DW – 05/04/2013
Sorry, I don't find anything surprising about this recent turn of UK Greens into supporting TIMs at the expense of women. It's entirely in line with the movement's obsession with sexual revolution and oppression hierachies over basic safeguarding, basic common sense and basic decency. The moment you start to become obsessed about hierachies of virtuous oppressed classes as constructed entirely by ivory tower academics and forget the fact you are dealing with actual human beings, you're ripe for being taken advantage of by every grifter with a sob story who can engage your ear for five minutes. It's game on for every set of grim fetishists and perverts to fight for the Crown of Victimhood and burrow into parties that obsess about hierachies of oppression too.
