"POV if you're a terf in my mentions"

This sort of coded threat of male violence against women has been going on for a few years now. They even put up a display at a San Francisco Library of the painted bats with barb wire wrapped around them.

And only very grudgingly removed a T shirt with fake blood on it saying "I punch TERFs".

The threat has to be clearly stated to be removed by twitter.

Hmm, nasty little boys, I don't know what is the world coming to?

I would have thought that the first thing these "transgender" people would have thought was not "ah I'm a girl, I'd better show the cisgender girls how violent and macho I am"

What a bunch of divvies

I am still honestly a bit shocked that with all the truly offensive things that you can find on Twitter (like weirdos with weapons, beheadings and violent porn) that they really deemed that a woman stating a verifiable fact was "hateful conduct"! In my opinion this shows a sickening bias.

My appeal to Twitter has (predictably) been turned down again on the grounds of "hateful conduct". I have sent a claim to BBB and await a reply...

Just a note to say that (following my twitter ban for stating fact) my list of "POV Ur a TERF in My Mentions" images can now be found here :

Part of me thinks , why hasn't this been removed and then banned from twitter, part of me thinks I'm glad people can see this. As people have wondered, are violent threats illegal? Don't know about other countries, but If any are in the Uk? Should be reported to police. Misogyny is not a hate crime (yet) though, and the suggested wording when it is states it has to be from a man. What about if it is from a transwoman?

@TheProdigalKittensReturn you make such a good point. We aren’t allowed to call out such men and that silencing is dangerous.

Thank you @Ereshkigal!

But women aren't allowed to say "male individuals who say threatening or alarming things about women scare me" - not here, not on Twitter, not anywhere really, at least not if the male people identify as "girls".

say “this is what I want to do to women that have different opinions to me” and (in theory) people start asking questions...

Your comment here reminds me of this thread:

Great post, LadyFat.

If anyone is interested this whole experience has prompted me to start a feminist blog, as an ex-English teacher I am particularly interested in how language is obfuscated by trans activists for their own gain. Say “pov ur a terf in my mentions” and only people that know what those terms mean listen... say “this is what I want to do to women that have different opinions to me” and (in theory) people start asking questions...

I have tweeted several politicians (as well stonewall/pink news etc 😉) with sadly no reply. I am planning on printing all the “pov” pictures and threats and taking them to my local MP. It does beg the question how quickly would people rush to condemn these photos of they were aimed at “transwomen”?

Lady have you or anyone else on Twitter copied these across to the police and to MPs? I'm not on Twitter or I would report to it to my local police, my MP, every other police force that seemed relevant, and about half the cabinet, as well as Joan McAlpine, David Davies and anyone else with a brain.

This is supposed to be illegal. Either we have reached the point where it's blatantly double standards and death threats are illegal unless they're aimed at women, in which case that needs to be proved and publicised nationwide with questions in parliament, or the police and Twitter are just wholly failing to do their job and need to answer for that. This is not on. Yes they're sad, ridiculous kids, but the behaviour isn't acceptable and the confidence is building every time they get away with it.

That’s atrocious, ladyfat

These are violent misogynists, threatening women, allowed and endorsed by social media. I am not Layla Moran, so I can’t see into gendered souls, but at least half of your screenshots are men, just ordinary men, as far as I can make out. Not trans people- just men, threatening women with violence.

In the name of fucking progress, because this, apparently, is where we are now.

Bloody hell I didn't know that. It just gets worse.

I thought POV was an art term, as in perspective: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perspective_(graphical)
I just searched for "POV in art" online and got a ton of disgusting porn links as first results. You can't even google something so innocent without getting links to abusive porn. No wonder teenagers are getting fucked up mentally.

If these threats are repeatedly being confirmed by twitter as not breaking rules, then they should have no problem with them being reposted, alongside said confirmations, for everyone to see. Possibly like #AllowedByTwitter ?

To the posters asking what ‘pov’ stands for; it is an acronym of “point of view” it is a camera angle currently popular in violent porn. It shows what the victim would see before and during the attack. Therefore “POV t*rf in my mentions” demonstrates what a feminist would see whilst she was attacked.

And here are the threats I’ve received since I started documenting these misogynists.
Every negative ‘POV terf in my mention’ promotes the idea that women can and should be beaten down for their views.

Violent men looking for any excuse to harm women, because women would never be interested in inadequate males like them.

I’ve been documenting each one of these and have received threats to breaking my nose, hacking my account and beating me with a bat.

Here is the ‘pov’ wall of shame:

I keep seeing these. Just saw another mobile.twitter.com/Voxelhc/status/1180256980927156225

No mental health issues here at all....right.

This is pretty accurate mobile.twitter.com/kokotronn/status/1180505403412508674
