Sorry, but punishing an entire choir because of the wrongthink of one person is stupid. Not only that, but all the reporting of this is just going to give her a massive amount of publicity, I’d certainly never heard of this lady before.
Anyways good for scope, they have a principle, that bigots should be shunned, and they’re sticking with it.
I suppose if the choir share the principle, that bigots should be shunned, then this becomes a self solving problem. If they don’t, then scope have still affected a positive outcome.
So? Just taking one idea: founding a new organisation takes a lot of work.
That’s not an impossible idea is it? “We wanted to not have a bigot as a lead, but it was work” isn’t going to win any sympathies, nor should it. In the mean time, good job scope.
There you go, you have at least 1 workable solution the choir could do to not be mildly inconvenienced the next time. There are, of course, other things they could do, readers thought of a couple I’m sure. The point was to show you, a dissenter to the idea that bigots should be shunned, knew there were things they could reasonably do.
Of course transphobia is a protected belief, it’s TERF island. Did you read 1984 yet, I reccomend it.
The work required to leave and start a new one is less work than having her removed. It is easier to work without the cancer than trying to treat it as something helpful or functional. She is responsible for devastating the people around her and harming their lives. She needs to fix herself or find herself alone with her legally held views.
That’s the equivalent of continuing to purchase Harry Potter products while condemning J. K. Rowling for her transphobic beliefs. Supporting a transphobe in any capacity only serves to prop them up on an even higher pedestal from which they can disseminate their hateful beliefs; better to find alternatives from those in society capable of common decency.

That’s nice.

It’s a CIC, so they can’t just kick out the founder. Founding a new organisation takes a lot of work.
Even if they could kick her out, it’s legally a protected belief, so it would potentially be discrimination to kick her out for it.
