Tonight I unfollowed
@rickygervais

Cue various replies about how gutted Ricky must be Grin

One of the advantages/curses of being booted off Twitter is I can now view McKinnon's, Jones' and Adrian's tweets, plus those from others who had blocked me.

Ereshkigal · 31/10/2019 09:47

What's Mimmy saying, for the many of us who she's blocked?

HandsOffMyRights · 31/10/2019 09:36

Hornets - some of those replies to her tweet sum up my thoughts exactly! Smile

Hornets · 31/10/2019 09:30

Someone's not happy...

I've aways been an absolute fan of Ricky's - right back from the Office - Extras is one of the funniest things I've ever watched - and this makes me love him even more.

FilthyBiscuit · 31/10/2019 00:46

Ricky is totally GC and I am so grateful that someone with his profile and not give a shit attitude is on our side. He's shining the light of this to the masses without the cries of transphobia or threats to die in a grease fire. Why is that I wonder?

WomanBornNotWorn · 31/10/2019 00:29

The almostvtoal absence of negative reactions, tho... What could be causing that? I wonder?

Oncewasblueandyellowtwo · 30/10/2019 22:51

10k plus likes! What's happening?
Please please Ricky keep it up. So many people are replying saying they had never heard of Yaniv and are shocked after they looked up about it.
And some of those replys are fantastic.

Oh Cyrus Bales is actually a nobody Grin

Some third rate, lesser known "comedian" who I happened to cross twitter paths with last May - who was rather enjoying the freedom to abuse women by calling them Terfs and cunts. You know the type.

No, I'd never heard of him before that either Wink

TerfTalk · 30/10/2019 22:28

I saw Gervais live a few months ago. He's definitely gender critical, hilariously so!

InvisibleWomenMustBeRead · 30/10/2019 22:21

Thank goodness he is standing up to the madness!

Wish more would come forward.

It's interesting (read depressing actually) that he isn't getting pile on. Just goes to show that they really are a mysoginistic bunch who only try to bully women!

TheProdigalKittensReturn · 30/10/2019 20:59

Astounding graphic design skills on display here.

Oh those replies - and memes - are "first class", as Partridge would say.

merrymouse · 30/10/2019 20:33

I don't think it's coincidental that he is tweeting this after recent events outside a library in Canada.

I wonder how twitter will react.

Destinysdaughter · 30/10/2019 20:32

zebrasdontwearbras that made me laugh so much!! Thank you

Doobigetta · 30/10/2019 20:27

Brilliant

littlecabbage · 30/10/2019 20:23

Who is Cyrus Bales, and what has he done?

AnneLovesGilbert · 30/10/2019 20:14

Good work Ricky. The replies are heartening.

zebrasdontwearbras · 30/10/2019 20:08

Some of them (mainly the male ones) are cashing in on being able to abuse women, kittens - looking at you, Cyrus Bales.

mcduffy · 30/10/2019 20:03

Not much of a pile on!

TheProdigalKittensReturn · 30/10/2019 20:01

I mean, he's a comedian. Any comedian who isn't taking advantage of the rich seam of comic material TRAs are currently providing is a coward. Especially if they're male, and thus relatively immune to TRA ire.

(Would be funny if some of them did tantrum at Gervais though, because he's not going to give a shit. Which is most likely why they don't.)
