Go Fund Me addiction part 2

Good news everyone. Pink news have found A MAN to explain that people with penis's are really women and that we're all terrible people for believing otherwise. A MAN has spoken so we all must listen.

That's really interesting. I made a small donation under a false name which got refunded and haven't donated again yet as waiting for payday. No porny spam on that email. So possibly was done after that to the remaining funders.

Gender identity reinforcers, loving domination in close- kwartered spaces

I've just checked my spam folder and it's full of porn spam.

All of it since my donation to the Go Fund Me.

I used to get maybe one spam message a week, from some Canadian Pharma spam thingy trying to sell me viagra.

No porn before. Now it's all Flirt4Free, Horny Affairs, and FreeLiveSexChat, with subject lines that say "Who is naughtier, Kandice or Arlinda?" and the like.

Also "urgent" messages from Klara, Shantae, Holley, Gretchen, Evon, and Thelma, none of which I've opened but all of which start with the word 'Yo'

So is someone at Go Fund Me supporting sexual harassment and intimidation of women by signing them up to porn spam sites? Perhaps with the intention of preventing women from supporting this kind of cause in the future? You wouldn't like to think so but it really wouldn't surprise me.

Dammit, Pidge! Not content with stealing our names and spaces, you are now stealing my thunder too. Humph. Foldy-arms and hard stare.

(Yeah, ok, yours is better. Pah.)

Pidgeon wins the internet! (NA males ALT, obviously )

I think I'm going to find a nice acronym for those who beat up women and object to women's biology being centred in women's discussions

Men Against Liberty and Equality?

I think I'm going to find a nice acronym for those who beat up women and object to women's biology being centred in women's discussions.

How about 'Female-Attacking Radical Transactivists'? Not sure about the best shortening, though?

Also have been getting a whole load of spam that I never got before. Clearly signatories email addresses have been passed onto spam lists, although how you would prove it was someone inside GFM, I don't know.

Personally, I don't much care. It is again proof (if proof were needed) of the type of person who is on the so called "right side of history", aka's bullies and women haters.

Yes hearing someone called a terf now makes me more inclined to follow/friend them. It's a badge of honour. Sounds better than the male version which seems to be transphobe

Great to see the total rising steadily. More people seem to be donating in their names also which is a good sign.

OH now you mention it my spam filter been rubbish thought was just one those things and had Manuel flat things as Spam.

After I donated I started getting a shitload of spam. Had never got it before. Started off wth emails about bitcoin, now its porn and stuff too.

I've just been following a Twitter thread regarding this. Since I donated I've been receiving all sorts of weird & wonderful emails. Mostly finance based. Do I need a loan/credit score shite. I'm beginning to wonder if these are in any way connected to my donation...

Case in point a comment on a recent article: 'This article is full of terfy arguments.' As if that's a bad thing considering how the term has come to be used.

you know, it's funny how meaningless I'm starting to find the word 'TERF' now. They keep using it, and it's clear they still think it's the worst insult, but uhh... It's starting to lose its power.

scratches chin Perhaps because it's synonymous with rational discussion and fact? Nah, that can't be it, surely.

I normally dislike the term 'virtue signalling' - as it's frequently used against left wingers who genuinely care about stuff, like food banks, refugees and so on.

But, really, if anyone is virtue signalling, it is the trans allies - marching around twitter, shouting at everyone that they are transphobic. But as you say, very few put their money where their mouth is.

Mind you, it could just be an excuse to abuse women. A lot of them like doing that. Abusing women for not worshipping the penis.

...and narcissistic people aren't known for giving money to others

Virtue signallers. No intention to put their money where their mouth is.

Interesting that the other gofundmes set up in opposition are not doing so well. The first one, set up by Neil Young has raised £550 in 8 days and the second, set up by Aisling Musson (the owner of 'The List') has only £130 in 5 days.

Mustn't gloat!

Thanks haru.

"treating someone unfavourably because they have taken (or might be taking) action under the Equality Act"

That certainly sounds promising...

Although I should also have pointed out, these are solely definitions for use with the Equality Act.

whoops, that first paragraph should read:

kind of* self-ID via perception
