Debanking: A Corporate War on the Unwoke
The threat of living under a Chinese-style social credit system looms ever-larger, says Toby Young in Spiked. Here’s an excerpt:
One thing I’ve learnt in the past year is that debanking is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to withdrawing services from people on political grounds. At the FSU, we often go to bat for people who’ve been kicked out of professional associations for wrongthink. One recent case involved a man threatened with suspension from British Cycling for objecting to a racially segregated event.
Another FSU case concerns a Newcastle United fan who has been banned from St. James’s Park for two seasons because of gender-critical opinions she expressed on social media. We’re currently helping her appeal that decision, but we think hundreds – possibly thousands – of football fans have been blacklisted by the Premier League for expressing unfashionable but perfectly lawful views. My hope is that ‘destadiumed’ will be one of the words of the year one day.
The most serious example we’ve come across is that of Teresa Steele, a former solicitor who had her life-saving operation cancelled by a private hospital after she complained about a transgender nurse and asked for assurance that only biological women would be involved in her intimate care.
Discriminating against people because of their beliefs – provided they’re deemed ‘worthy of respect in a democratic society’ – is unlawful under the Equality Act 2010. But one of the reasons services are being withdrawn from so many people whose views fall outside the Overton window is because equalities law is being misapplied, often at the behest of activist lobby groups. The Premier League, which proudly boasts of its relationship with Stonewall, appears to believe it is legally obliged to stop trans-exclusionary radical feminists (TERFs) from buying tickets to football games, when the exact opposite is true.
Worth reading in full.

Fascisms debank. They also lock down, stab, diaper, terrorise, marginalise, demoralise and ostracise.
What a bloody world we are being taken to.

This is worth a read if only to hi-light how deeply people bought in to the myth of the C1984 Scamdemic. I dare say the author is a decent man but his gullibility is off the scale. All that will be achieved when the chief pantomime dame receives this letter will be a gleeful shaking of fists as she realises how the whole psyop was swallowed by nominally intelligent people. This silly man has done more harm than good with his laboriously detailed missive.
This read will certainly cause shaking heads.
Sad.
‘Intelligent’.
Nothing is further from the truth.
An enabler of fascism and a purveyor of false hoods and fantasy. Just another idiot.
This is why I believe in Hell. People are answerable for their actions and beliefs.
Not sure about Hell but I do believe in a final interview at the ‘Last Trump’.
‘In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.’
Hoping to ace that interview despite …
Who can tell?
I liked the Scott Adams cartoon; Employer “There’s a gap in your CV.”, Potential Employee “I was at college.”, Employer “Harvard I assume.”, Potential Employee “I’ll let myself out.”
Indeed
I couldn’t bring myself to read past the first paragraph
The inquiry should not be engaged with. Ask them simply to prove using real worms evidence that there was a pandemic/public health emergency. They won’t be able to, therefore their “inquiry” is invalid on its face
Precisely this, but it won’t stop the pointless turning of wheels. There are fees to be earned don’tcha know!
“I couldn’t bring myself to read past the first paragraph”
It actually gets a lot, lot worse tof.
I thought so.
Over on the Lockdown Sceptics subreddit, someone asked if we knew any personally who had died or been hospitalised FROM rather than WITH covid. Answers were thin on the ground.
Without the billions spent on advertising, no-one would have noticed “covid”.
I think this fellow is being hard done by. Yes, he went over the top with his mitigating methods, and spent a lot of money that he didn’t need to. He stayed open, though, and encouraged his staff to stay at work. You have to give him that credit. He may have bought into the fear at the start, but I think he smelled the rat earlier than most who eventually did, and when (what seems to be) the majority still don’t smell the rat. He also concludes by saying what most aware people have been saying from the start. He doesn’t hold any punches over the vaccine, nor does he over masks, unless those punches were effing and blinding. I don’t know if he’s right about copper and UV light, but if he is, you can understand why he went to the expense. If he had written that letter saying that all the prescribed mitigating actions were fantastic, masks and vaccines are great and Lockdowns were proportionate, then I’d call him a fool. From his letter, though, I don’t think he’s a fool – I just think he’s wasted money. I’d rather be in his company than with any… Read more »
