Extreme misogyny to be treated as terrorism under UK government plans
The Guardian ^ | Sun 18 Aug 2024 | Nadeem Badshah

Extreme misogyny will be treated as a form of terrorism for the first time under government plans, it was reported.

Yvette Cooper, the home secretary, has ordered a review of the counter-terrorism strategy to address violence against women and girls and identify gaps in current legislation and examine emerging ideologies, according to the Sunday Telegraph.

Under the proposals, teachers would be legally required to refer pupils they suspect of extreme misogyny to Prevent, the UK government’s counter-terror programme.

Cooper told the Telegraph: “For too long, governments have failed to address the rise in extremism, both online and on our streets, and we’ve seen the number of young people radicalised online grow. Hateful incitement of all kinds fractures and frays the very fabric of our communities and our democracy.”

The Labour MP added: “Action against extremism has been badly hollowed out in recent years, just when it should have been needed most.

“That’s why I have directed the Home Office to conduct a rapid analytical sprint on extremism, to map and monitor extremist trends, to understand the evidence about what works to disrupt and divert people away from extremist views, and to identify any gaps in existing policy which need to be addressed to crack down on those pushing harmful and hateful beliefs and violence.

“That work will underpin a new strategic approach to countering extremism from government, working closely with communities to build consensus and impetus for our plans.”

LOL. Nothing captured the single-celled amoeba quality of men (and I say this with true affection) looking at pretty women like Looney Tunes. I miss those cartoons.

This is what we are biologically programmed to do. Thus the left denies any and all biological programming. Because the left is God in their mind.

I guess Monty Python should surrender for the recreation of the battle of Pearl Harbor, and ton of other skits. Hahaha

Their Terrorism Act also means you DON’T have the right to remain silent. Not answering questions is a crime.

How on earth does a subjective judgement of ‘misogyny’ fall under ‘terrorism’ when Islamic calls to ‘kill everyone’ are said in front of the police and nothing is done?

V for Vendetta is real...just reversed, it’s the lefties of course.

Extreme misogyny, you mean, like NOT letting your girl wear a burka?

No definition of “extreme misogyny.” How convenient.

If they had any balls they would crack down on rap music lyrics. But they won’t, so I don’t care!
