A twitter account is saying that stickers in Manchester Oxford Road station have razor blades behind them put there by TERFS. If you are terfblocked you won't be able to view.

Can you buy the stickers?

ToeToToe · 10/09/2018 20:25

And on a completely unrelated note - well, it's on the MN twitter, so slightly related - and funny:

Don't you just love it when trans-activists 'like' Momentum Surbiton spoof tweets Grin Nice one, Mars-person. (they got Madigan once as well).

Great thread by mrkhtake (this is what social media should be for, right?)

Aren't there a lot of train companies operating in the UK?!

arranfan · 10/09/2018 20:21

Yet again, a round of applause to the fabulous Graham Linehan for highlighting mrkhtake2 and the team work in sleuthing this out:

I love the gender-critical Nancy Drews I follow. They all rule.

mrkhtake2's thread - great work unravelling the trans-activist's lies.

SturdyEarmuffs · 10/09/2018 18:38

mrkhtake2's thread is a thing of wonder. Bloody brilliance, unraveling the bullshit hoax nonsense so effectively.

I might tweet Frank Ocean to ask if he is aware anti women protesters are using photos of his injury to defame women.
Poor bloke.

BabySharkDoododoo · 10/09/2018 18:01

It will come as no surprise to anyone that the police have deemed this razor blade thing a hoax.

FloralBunting · 10/09/2018 17:52

You know you're having a funny old day when TRA lies reach such outlandish proportions that you realize that some will do anything to get their own way even if it will be obviously exposed.

I suppose it's because they know a lie will travel more quickly and effectively than the inevitable debunking. Still, I'm glad I'm at the stage where their behaviour still shocks me to some extent.

HavingALittleBabyToolshed · 10/09/2018 17:44

do Twitter remove accounts that are demonstrably implicated in wasting police time?

They have been known to make an account inaccessible to anyone (including the user) if the police request access.

HavingALittleBabyToolshed · 10/09/2018 17:43

Excellent work getting those screenshots of the fraudulent claims.
They would go nicely on a poster!

“Anti-woman activists fraudulently used this photo of pop star Frank Ocean’s injury in order to suggest women protesting against rapists in women’s jails were deliberately harming people.”

Or

“Anti-women activists fake injury to imply women are dangerous for discussing men raping in women’s prisons”

arranfan · 10/09/2018 17:34

So, I genuinely don't know this - do Twitter remove accounts that are demonstrably implicated in wasting police time?

TigerDrankAllTheWaterInTheTap · 10/09/2018 17:27

Yes, someone else did get one of them and I've got the other. So here you go.

ShrodingersSturdyPyjamas · 10/09/2018 17:23

Screenshot for you.

Yes please do screenshot all batshittery. It will be useful one day.

TigerDrankAllTheWaterInTheTap · 10/09/2018 17:19

Unfortunately I didn't take screenshots but I strongly suspect others did. Must get into the habit myself!

LangCleg · 10/09/2018 17:11

This is exactly what I was talking about on the "what we can and can't say" thread about LM's stuff being taken down and some people were exhorting FWR to take a nicer tone. Anti-woman activists don't censor themselves in case feminists take them the wrong way. They'll call whatever we say hate speech, however we say it and no matter how far they have to stretch it out of context. And if we don't give them anything to misrepresent, they just make up lies.

Waste of time worrying about our tone or brusqueness.

ToeToToe · 10/09/2018 17:11

Excellent job Tiger - thanks for taking the time to post that. The second link has now been deleted, I notice. Someone's pants are on fire.

It's all lies, as we all knew. GC feminists were never going be putting razor blades behind stickers ffs.

They literally have nothing on us, we are non-violent women fighting to defend women's rights and children's safety. They have nothing on us - so they have to make it up.

PersistenceIsNotFutile · 10/09/2018 17:08

Unfortunately no, and it's been deleted from the timeline I saw it on.

HavingALittleBabyToolshed · 10/09/2018 17:04

was a picture of the finger of a performer called Frank Ocean, all over the internet when he cut it badly a few years ago.

Bloody (get it, get it?) hell!

Funnily enough said person deleted their fraudulent claims.
Did anyone grab a screenshot?

ErrolTheDragon · 10/09/2018 17:03

Do we expect people who propagated this lie on twitter to apologise and now post what the transport police say?

Maybe someone who twits should ask them? (If it's not already been done)

HavingALittleBabyToolshed · 10/09/2018 17:03

Screenshotting that police statement!

TigerDrankAllTheWaterInTheTap · 10/09/2018 16:58

The stupidity certainly leaps out, doesn't it!

hackmum · 10/09/2018 16:56

From Tiger's link:

"hoaxers waste considerable police time and divert our much-needed resources from other duties."

They certainly do. Let's hope that's a lesson to them - though these people seem to be not only malicious, but extraordinarily stupid, so I'm not holding my breath.
