Reports that Helen Steel and another woman were surrounded and physically dragged out of (another) anarchist bookfair for wrongthink

I reckon there's some undercover in Class War / Antifa ringleading this bunch of gullible thugs and targeting Helen Steel because of her refusal to back down over the Spy Cops stuff.

This.
But they chose to go along with him.

The difference is that in London last year people defended helen and stood between her and her abusers, they stopped short of removing them but at least did not remove helen.
There was no London bookfair this year, largely because of this incident and attack on the organisers afterwards. Discussions continue around safe space, ha! And security because some other disruptive behaviour took place

bloody hell again?

A couple of threads from when Helen was mobbed threatened and called a terf cunt by a group of people at ananarchist bookfair last year

Their violent tendencies are very frightening. How many women are strong enough to defend themselves against this type of physical assault.

It sounds like these horrible misogynistic little fuckers don't understand that "carrying" a woman out of a space against her will is legally assault.

Something similar happened last year.

Hope she’s OK. Her Twitter handle is HelenSteel12 and she is tweeting so that’s something.

When your side is targetting Helen Steel and Linda Bellos, ffs, it’s time to take a long, hard look at yourself and what you believe in

Absolutely this. What the ever loving FUCK do they imagine they're achieving?

"You can't be at this anarchist bookfair. Your ideas are too dangerous".

Is Helen OK?

When the 'conversation' is taken over by the 'anarchists' you know it's a stalemate and there's bound to be state infiltration - see the whole of the 1970s (Red/Black Brigades in Italy, RAF dismantling in Germany, etc).

Unfortunately Helen Steel was always one of the targets of that kind of treatment, she must feel so much deja vu.

Yes, when they are attacking women like Helen Steel and Linda Bellos it seems perfectly obvious that they are misogynistic bullies who do not have the faintest idea about or interest in left wing politics.

The fact that it's Helen Steel just shows the complete lack of respect and knowledge that these TRAs have.

Exactly.
Helen is an amazing absolute legend of a woman and she is clever and brave in a way that hose shameful bullies could only ever dream of.

I've always thought that anarchism was most attractive to MRA types before I knew what MRAs were.

Totally agree with AspieAndProud

I've always loved anarchist thinkers, but here in Mexico anarchism tends to be the cloak that government agents use, along with some thugs that take it as an excuse to do whatever they want.

These thugs really are tearing the left apart.

The fact that it's Helen Steel just shows the complete lack of respect and knowledge that these TRAs have.

Too right.

Solidarity to you, Helen and friend.

UPDATE: Helen Steel’s arm was injured by the men who assaulted her at the Manchester Anarchist Bookfare.

There is always attempted justification for men causing women pain. Injuring a woman through using force will be attempted to be justified politically.

‘Anarchists’ called the cops to keep women out of the pub after the Tara Wolf trial.

They’re doing this in defence of a change in law proposed by the Tories and supported by the entire political establishment.

They really need to reflect on their understanding of the word anarchism.

Emma Goldman they ain’t.

On the Twitter thread, someone just posted that one of the women had their arm broken?!?

I can't see any of them claiming to have seen the error of their ways. The best we can hope for is something along the lines of' sorry, but not sorry, terfs made me do it'.

These people are nothing but men's rights activists who get a kick out of inflicting violence on women. They are absolute scum.

Do we think any of them will have Esther Bett's like damascene revelations once they reflect on what it must have looked like - to be cheering on or actually dragging out women for having feminist, women-centered thoughts...

The fact that it's Helen Steel just shows the complete lack of respect and knowledge that these TRAs have.

I hope they press charges if they were carried out.

I've just seen something about this on Twitter saying they were dragged out.

Apparently, @stratiscue has deleted tweets they posted crowing about it.

I'm so glad that there's not really a war on women or a tacitly-endorsed political and social endorsement of what is deemed to be morally-justified violence by SJWs or I'd be alarmed, disheartened and very angry about this.

Saw this from Doc Stock. @stratiscue's second tweet has since been deleted.
