TRA terrorism now

Interested to see what the metro’s take on the story will be.

JoanSummers Can I use your below post on FB argument please?

They're escalating

Yep.

Trans activists have physically attacked women.
They've worn balaclavas to block women from buildings and called them c*nts.
They've run countless smear campaigns.
They've committed property damage.
They've issued bomb threats.
Some trans activists have committed sexual asaults, and excused rapes, and called for rapes, and exposed their genitals in public.
They've abused children.
They've posed with axes and bats studded with nails and knives and threatened to kill women.
Trans activists have now smoke bombed a newspaper.
Women meet in secret because of fear of what trans activists are capable of.
MPs hide their identity when they meet with women's rights activists because of fear of what trans activists are capable of.
Journalists avoid writing about the topic because of fear of what trans activists are capable of.

When will our politicians take this seriously and do something about it?

We need to watch what they accuse us of. That will give an indication of what to expect from them.

Absolutely Joan. The best way to predict what an abuser (or in this case, group of abusers) will do next. Reversals.

Meanwhile, armed only with adhesive substances... she persisted.

A ray of hope is dawning. Maybe five or ten years down the line this will all be material for an absolutely hilarious sitcom.

They smoke bombed the Metro! Even though the Metro accepted Stonewall's ad! And even though the Metro staff weren't in the bloody office! And they made an enemy of the Daily Mail! And then they tried to blame "the terfs" for it and cooked up a conspiracy theory that implies the government were in on it.

I can't even, as the Tumblrites would say. This is all just too ridiculous to be true. And now I think about it, how is it even possible that the likes of Rachel McKinnon and Danielle Muscato are real people and not sitcom characters? Can we just all pause to think about Roz Kaveney and "huge hairy prongs" a bit, some more, and laugh our asses off?

How the hell have these utter muppets managed to get so much social power? TRAs are ridiculous people - why does anyone take them seriously? Maybe I shouldn't be laughing so hard - I know this situation is scary, and sinister, and the smoke bomb could have genuinely hurt someone, and the threats to womens' rights are absolutely not a joke but I've typed this whole comment and I'm still laughing.

The only 'news' coverage so far-

'I bet The Metro wishes it hadn't given in to printing Stonewall's ad.'

I don't see there would have been any giving in about it. They sold some advertising space. It's what they do.

No mention on BBC website

Because no matter how much you capitulate if you 'wrong' them somehow, you're toast #CarolineLucas #AlisonMoyet

100% this Joan.

What is a smoke bomb at a protest if it's not emulation of terrorism? It's glorifying terrorism and violence.

This will get worse I expect?

I thought blue was for boys.

It was only a couple of days ago that Shon Faye (wrongfully) claimed that feminists were escalating and "inciting violence" against trans people. Didn't Owen Jones signal boost that?

And now TRAs are actually escalating their behaviour and threatening the press. The projection is so blatant.

Hahahaha carry on peaking the nation, lovelies! What idiots.

The Metro hosted the Stonewall ad, the numpties.

Indeed.

And yes, I have seen on here a few times that the most dangerous time is after a woman tries to leave. Is this narcissistic rage then?

They know the tide has turned now. This will get worse I expect?

Lang if it’s not reported, if it’s brushed aside, I’m going to wonder very darkly about the layers of behind-the-scenes string-pulling. There are rocks to turn over here.

Also, imagine if GC feminists ever do any serious organising stateside, where there are so many guns and nutcases ready to go on rampages with them.

Attacking the press, how very trumpian.

I wonder if they knew the consultation was going to be extended....my guess is not.

If so, then what a silly thing to do.

If the Metro and Mail decides to report this then they will likely find they've just done one of the best GC Ad's ever....

Very much so.

Everard oh, I totally agree (I've been around for the Warrington and both Manchester bombings, I get it!) - I should have said more clearly that "they're only smoke pots, wouldn't hurt a fly" will be the defence they rely on when these idiots are called out on it. If they ever are, of course...one rule for them, one for everyone else.

'Picketing' the Daily Mail is not a good move.

Perhaps the 'picketers' were infiltrated by nefarious types in balaclavas, she says, in a whisper, but audible nonetheless.
