#banglinner

[Doyoumind]

This is trending on twitter at the moment. If it isn't a perfect example of TRAs wanting to shut down discussion, I don't know what is.

[Ereshkigal]

Is there a reason for this campaign?

[TiredofthisBS]

Well if that's not targeted harassment then I don't know what is.

[DickKerrLadies]

I wondered what bang liner was at first...

[Doyoumind]

I should have used BanGlinner

It seems to have started with someone who has an interest in anime. What a surprise.

[DickKerrLadies]

Sorry, it's not your fault! It's the curse of the hastag. Like Susan Boyle.

[ItsAllGoingToBeFine]

It's just daft. Do these people not realise that Glinner is not "running" GC twitter? If he gets banned it makes no difference (other than creating some media headlines which would damage rather than benefit the TRAs).

The TRAs are losing the argument, the TRAs have no argument and this becoming more and more apparent, with or without Glinner.

[Doyoumind]

What I see on Twitter is people who have never read or tried to understand his points. They're just on the bandwagon. I hope at least a few bother to find out what he's actually saying as a result of this.

dick whenever I feel down I only have to think of #susanalbumparty to cheer myself right up again

[HandsOffMyRights]

So if you stamp your feet hard enough you can demand what you want? Hardly the way of the oppressed...

"Don't care how, I WANT IT NOW!"

[Doyoumind]

The common thread is about it only being about trans rights. None of them give a second thought to women's rights. It's so telling.

[AutumnRose1]

what's the deal with this anime connection?

I saw that trending last night and am well pissed off, but it's a small army doing a hell of a lot of work, I guess?

[TwentyViginti]

Oh another TRA tantrum.......

[justcly]

They blast out the word "bigot" like a scatter gun, but the definition of bigot is "a person who is intolerant towards those holding different opinions". 🤷‍♀️

A bit like Glinner then. 'Agree with me or you're a handmaiden'.

[TiredofthisBS]

What's that word for people who accuse you of something but actually guilty doing it themselves? Begins with an H and ends with crite🤔

[NewYearsHumberElla]

Sunlight sunlight.

It’s all it takes. Then let people make their own minds up.

Hello snowblight, back again?

[snowblight]

I'm assuming everyone on here is happy with Glinner calling women who don't agree with him handmaidens?

[TiredofthisBS]

I assume that you're happy withwomen who don't agree with the TRA's to be called T@rfs and told to die in a grease fire?

[lilmishap]

Is it because he set up Glindr.org? It's Twitter without the Twitter bollocks.

[Mockers2020Vision]

Bang Glinner?

Steady on

[BackOnceAgainWithATinselHalo]

Well they can huff and puff but all it dies is shine more sunlight on the issue because glinner is just one of thousands and thousands and thousands of people who think the same as him. He doesn’t run GC, he’s a great ally but as he’s say himself he’s a supporter. It’s like these people thing GC is glinner running several twitter accounts rather than a reflection of what most people think.

[Melroses]

The beauty is you can use the hashtag to tweet all sorts of information, and most of the TRA lot can't see it because they have blocked you. Win win.

[BackOnceAgainWithATinselHalo]

Good luck with picking through my typos - sigh. Frigging auto correct!

'Ban Glinner for having the right to free speech but I still demand my right. But only MY right. Nobody else is allowed to have the same right'

[KettlePolly]

"Handmaidens" seems fairly apt because it's an observation that capitulating to the ideology serves men at the expense of women.

He calls men he disagrees with Beards too. Unfairly reductionist?

I don't have time for teenage spats or Twitter squabbles but I follow him because I find his posts thought provoking. It's clear he's genuinely motivated by the desire to stand up for women and their sex based rights, it's not random name calling or baiting.
