The 24 year harassment of the Vancouver rape relief and women's shelter

Interesting article here about the 24 year campaign against the Vancouver women's shelter for its refusal to allow trans identified females into its space. I'd heard about the law suit but didn't know about all these other acts. Honestly starting to feel like Trans Right Activism is just mens Right Advocates in a dress. Why can't no one see how batshit insane and EVIL these activists are?

The a&g&p is very strong on that one.

Ogre is implicitly supporting violence and threats against women. And blaming the women for it.

SunsetBeetch · 28/08/2019 06:31

Oger again. Angry

Horrible victim-blaming and gas-lighting from Ogre - as usual. The hatred for rape victims, and the women supporting them, is sickening.

ALittleBitofVitriol · 28/08/2019 00:51

Yes, nice to see Oger admitting that saying no to males = 'predictable blowback' aka violence, death threats, vandalism...

Creepster · 28/08/2019 00:33

So according to Oger, a refuge for women who said no to men who refused to take no for an answer deserve to be terrorized because they say no to men.

Glad to see oger wasn’t voted in the election oger stood in

Can I just point out that the $10 monthly donation needed is in Canadian dollars, which at the current rate of exchange is £6.20.

SunsetBeetch · 27/08/2019 22:43

Morgane Oger chimes in.

Regrettably but predictably, VRR choosing to ignore Canada's civil rights laws causes blow-back.

I empathize VRR feel threatened by the predictable response to their conduct. As I have previously offered, I am ready to help VRR get out of their mess if they wish to.

More Right Side of History behaviour from The Most Marginalised People Evah.

This time they have graffitied Vancouver Rape Relief's front with messages such as "FUCK TERFS" "KILL TERFS" and "TRANS POWER".

Digusting lowlife bastards.

do these arseholes really think they're the right side of history when they nail a dead fucking rat to the door of a rape refuge?

I always think about this. I'm reminded about a scene from the news, decades ago, when one part of the sectarian divide in NI walked their children to school through an alley of other-part-of-the-sectarian-divide adults who shouted abuse and threats of violence. A convenient alternate route was available. The parents opted to walk their terrified children through that. Adults on the other side showed up for their part of the ritual.

The children were living shields and targets. I often wonder how this affected them in later life. Were they proud of their parents? Did they resent being sacrificed to their beliefs?

Just how far from the herd do you have to stray before you wonder if you're on the wrong side of history or behaving inhumanely.

Much better than the situation across the three states around my location. All of the shelters are open to people with penises. None for non penis owners.

2BthatUnnoticed · 18/08/2019 23:06

Detroit two shelters in Vancouver cater for TW alongside women. VRR is the only one of this type - it refers TW to one of the others, if needed.

Given TW are less than 1% of the population (cf 51% who are female), you would think access to 66% of women’s centres would be ample!

But no, the campaign against VRR continues...

Detroitin68 · 18/08/2019 22:59

I'm glad women in Vancouver have this resource.

I wonder if things are generally better in Canada, or if it's a lone stand out organization.

Ereshkigal · 18/08/2019 22:47

Indeed. Surprising how they regain a belief that biological sex is significant then.

Voice0fReason · 18/08/2019 22:45

Mythical biological female
until they are looking for a woman to be a surrogate for them.

Ereshkigal · 18/08/2019 21:41

I don't think people should have "control over the conversations they start". Why do they post on a public social forum if that's what they want? Hmm

SunsetBeetch · 18/08/2019 14:23

"To give people more control over the conversations they start.."

I remember when they first announced this, the vast majority of replies were against it. But when has twitter ever listened to its users?

More about hiding replies. Gosh, what a great idea: prevent people from challenging awful opinions and false information.

Twitter's brilliant new feature (trialling in Canada at the moment) ensures women who object to people harassing a rape crisis centre can't be heard.

"Just clicked on this tweet and was met with a message from Twitter that they've allowed the author to delete replies they find offensive. This is a new offering that will ensure sexual abusers can silence victims beyond just calling them 'transphobes' "

Absolutely.
