Gender Critical MNers Gathering Together On Twitter.

Creating this thread for those who want to follow/share/connect/engage with other gender critical MNers on Twitter after the suggestion was made on this thread to group together there to raise awareness of our concerns around the possibility of gender self identity replacing gender reassignment in the uk and trans ideology etc.

If you'd like to take part then please Pm me your Twitter name, over the weekend I will compile a list of MNers Twitter names and PM them back out to everyone on Monday. As it'll be an ongoing thing, I will add other Twitter handles that are sent after Monday and send updated lists via PM. Only your Twitter name will be given to other MNers and I won't share your MN username alongside your Twitter account with anyone.

If you know of any other public Twitter profiles that are openly gender critical such as Magdelan Burns, please feel free to share their Twitter names too and I shall add to the list.

Before you sign up for Twitter you will need an email or phone number for verification.
Understandably, many don't feel safe linking personal phone number or personal emails to gender critical posts so it might be best to create a separate email address for social media sites etc where you want to speak about concerns raised in the other threads. Gmail, outlook, yahoo are three sites off the top of my head that provide free web based email accounts.

When you click on sign up in Twitter it will give the option of signing up with a mobile number as a default but if you scroll down a little, there's an option to "use email instead"

Following this link should take you to the sign up page with the email option already selected.

If you are worried about your IP address being used to locate you, you can use VPN (Virtual Private Network) software/services that camouflage your actual IP and make it look as if you are accessing the Internet from elsewhere. I use an Android app called VPN master which can be downloaded from google play and once installed, it's just a case of opening app and and switching it on and accessing Internet as usual. You can have the VPN running all the time but it can drain battery so I open app and turn back off after using. There should be similar apps for iOS and Windows, I will link them in later post if I get time.

I can create a bunch of email and Twitter accounts for people if they are struggling, but wont be able to do it until Monday. I'll be less active online over the weekend but wanted to get the thread up so that people can start PMing their Twitter names.

Gahhh, fuckers. I want to tweet too. I may actually have to buy a burner phone. Are those real? How do I get one?

YetAnotherSpartacus · 13/03/2017 01:19

All those receiving violent threats should screenshot them and gather as much evidence about where they came from as possible. Keep them (somewhere where you do not have to look at them obviously). This will be useful for

  • posting them publicly (with info that identifies you removed of course) to show what violent, misogynistic scum many of the TRAs are.
  • showing them to MPs and others who think that the TRAs are a bunch of nice people in dresses who are the most oppressed victims in the world.
  • potentially shaming anyone who is identified, particularly if they have a 'nice' public persona.

Also, at all times remain polite and calm. Don't sink to their level. Take the high moral ground.

Make sure that you have optimum security on your own computers and netwrks too - even if you pay someone to install it - some of these scum are keyboard warriors who are quite capable of data theft and a novice twitter user is a sitting duck for this.

Never post anything or even check your account from a work computer.

Be vigilant aorund passwords.

Thank you. Im being terfed on twitter.

EatSpamAmandaLamb · 13/03/2017 00:48

Ok, then I misunderstood. A thread in general yesterday? Hope you are ok?
I was agreeing with you by the way.

Scissorcisters · 13/03/2017 00:43

You've done nothing wrong and have much to add. I work in web too. I'm being over sensitive I know and its from a thread yesterday. Sorry. Im passionate about womens safety and it's the one subject theres no grey areas for me.

EatSpamAmandaLamb · 13/03/2017 00:34

Wait, not to derail this but I feel like I have done something wrong. If I have please let me know, I would very much like to contribute to this cause but don't want to tread on toes or cause issues. Sorry if I have misunderstood, I'm in a lot of pain and feel snarked upon when my dog looks the wrong way at me.
I hope my former career (social media, PR and media) can be of assistance.

Scissorcisters · 13/03/2017 00:27

No, Allah.

EatSpamAmandaLamb · 13/03/2017 00:26

Christ.

Scissorcisters · 13/03/2017 00:25

Eaxactly what I said then.

EatSpamAmandaLamb · 13/03/2017 00:25

Also it would be useful for someone to create images using picmonkey (or photoshop skills) which fit the twitter dimensions.
Something with the dictionary definition of woman would be useful. Including the hashtag too. That way it can be retweeted and included in messages on lots of different topics and keeps the message "on brand".
In fact it would be simple to create a catalogue of images of quotes for different replies or occasions. These kinds of things have huge amounts of engagement especially likes and retweets.

Scissorcisters · 13/03/2017 00:23

And one that has been used successfuly before.

Scissorcisters · 13/03/2017 00:21

As I said, unique # tag!

EatSpamAmandaLamb · 13/03/2017 00:04

When it comes to posting, yes hashtags are key however they need not be too short anymore as creating a thread of tweets has become more acceptable (basically replying to your own tweet in quick succession to create a thread). Use a pre determined hashtag for this campaign (as it were) to and pick 2-3 relevant and highly used hashtags. Make sure to add them to the first tweet. Tweet your thread and the quote retweet yourself saying something like "Here is a thread I created with my thoughts on specific topic #whatevercollectivehashtagwesettleon #radfem #whatever. Pls RT"

You need the other hashtags to give this hashtag publicity.

Posts with photos in get more retweets. You can add several to a post and they shouldn't count toward your 140ch.
You can create simple logos on picmonkey for free so you can have people recognise you in conversation.

Do settle on the hashtag though, it needs to be unique
#RadNotBad
#SpartiCUNTS

Scissorcisters · 12/03/2017 23:55

On Twitter it's the hash tags that get noticed, not the content on it's own. Use TRAs hash tags too and hashtags in the realm of Everday Feminism etc. Twitter is a popularity contest, treat it that way. They do.

Danielle Muscato was allowed to tell people to suck his female dick because of it.

Scissorcisters · 12/03/2017 23:52

If you search #Spartacus on twitter there are some mumsnets posts but you will always be competing against the original Spartacus and the very popular tv show of the same name.

Do you need a unique one. Even Iamspartacus, mngendercritical or the shorter versions mentioned before?

To trend in a meaningful way you do need something unique. Even joining known # tags may be good ie #gendercritcal.

I used to work in social media, let me know if you need plans for getting stuff trending.

Miffer · 12/03/2017 23:09

JUST LIKE WOMEN ARE TRAINED TO DO.

Miffer · 12/03/2017 23:07

Ahhh no worries, I realised after I posted you predated the podcast anyway.

In other news I am gutted that Twitter has outfoxed me. I will just have to settle for watching and staying silent.

WankingMonkey · 12/03/2017 23:03

Inspiration for my username was a thread on here in AIBU...someone asking if they would be unreasonable to complain to the zoo about wanking monkeys Grin

Miffer · 12/03/2017 22:48

WankingMonkey

I just listened to a podcast that featured your name heavily, I have to ask if that was the inspiration?

Also use pictures with text to get your point across or if you are posting a trolls posti, or short snappy intros to links. There is no limit on text then.

Then hash tag away.

Get people like Magdalene Burns to follow you, send pm's to request. People will follow people on her list and she may retweet etc. Add others by searching for relevant # tags ie gender critical. It's networking really with like minded people who will then have your back when you need it.
