Bestselling author, J.K. Rowling, reviews Nicola Sturgeon's book...
The Scottish National: JK Rowling responds as Nicola Sturgeon blames her for 'vile' abuse:
"JK Rowling has said she will be publishing a review of Nicola Sturgeon's memoir Frankly after the former first minister named her as a driving force behind “vile” abuse amid the debate on gender reform...
Sturgeon said that Rowling’s “stunt” had been the point at which “rational debate became impossible and any hope of finding common ground disappeared”. She further said that she had never had experienced the “intensity of vitriol” as in the discussion around gender reform.
Sturgeon wrote: “The tactics deployed by some, however sincere their views might have been, suggested there was another agenda at work. There are many examples I could cite, but the one that attracted most attention, not surprisingly, was JK Rowling’s donning of a T-shirt bearing the slogan ‘Sturgeon, destroyer of women’s rights’ …"

The Scottish National: Why is Nicola Sturgeon still in a mess on gender reform?
"Sturgeon now says that “we’d lost all sense of rationality in this debate” and concedes “I’m partly responsible for that”, but it would be interesting to know how she would share out the blame. No doubt she would place some with those GRR Bill critics whom she asserted were “transphobic, deeply misogynist, often homophobic, and possibly some of them racist as well”. Her absolute conviction that her stance was the “progressive” one made her blind and deaf to all of the warnings about the bill, regardless of whether they came from right-wing MSPs, feminist academics, trade unionists, or the women within her own party...
What she omits are the political reasons why she did not take a step back, despite knowing fine well that many of those raising concerns were not motivated by hatred at all...
Sturgeon might now admit partial responsibility for an unedifying chapter of Holyrood’s history but frankly, that’s not enough. She should say sorry to the critics whose rational warnings she ignored."

August Burns Red: Constellations: Rationalist:
"You're crashing faster
And there won't be pieces to piece back together this time
Can't you see you're ringing? You're ringing out
This is dissonance. This is dissonance
It's in the quiet of this place, (This is dissonance)
That all things come to life, (This is dissonance)
All that is real is blurred by your notion of reality
All that is real is blurred by your notion of reality
Nothing is real, color is black, is white, is color blind
Tucking away what's true, what's tangible…
Now you're the hypocrite
You can't hide from this...”
