Has been suspended from twitter. He has been a great ally - as you can imagine there is a bit of a party going on over there.

Twitter is an increasingly toxic cesspit. You were too good for them anyway @Glinner. Sorry to hear you’ve been kicked off and thank you for your efforts on this issue.

Beerincomechampagnetastes · 27/06/2020 08:50

Sending lots of my woman love ❤️ 🤗🤗 to Glinner, the old fashioned cunty kind.

Thank you

CodenameVillanelle · 27/06/2020 08:49

Thanks Michael
And thanks for not deleting it!

Hi all, and thanks for bearing with us whilst we went through the original thread. It was overrun with trolls so we've deleted the abusive comments and sent them on their way.
Here's the reinstated thread: Twitter has suspended me

ShowOfHands · 27/06/2020 08:48

I am beyond cross. He works tirelessly for women's rights. Twitter is ridiculous.

Glinner is of course welcome here. He's a feminist and it's a parenting website. Maybe we need to be clearer about what a woman's only space is because the people in the back who are freely handing away our hard won rights, still don't get it. No the Internet is not a place from which you can banish voices you don't like. No it isn't a woman only space. Yes we want to keep our actual physical same sex spaces. Fgs. I'm raging.

Keep on Glinner.

Glinner · 27/06/2020 08:46

Thanks for the kind messages, everyone. I'm ok. I knew it was coming because whenever I unlocked my account I would be mass-reported, and I couldn't be arsed going through all my tweets and deleting all the references to 'grooming'.

There was a bloke with blue eyeshadow/hair/piercings whose timeline was mainly images of himself having a Barclays and he said "I find it hard to believe you've never used porn" and I said "Not Ronald McDonald porn, no". Maybe that did it.

TornadoOfSouls · 27/06/2020 08:44

Yes I think they do think it’s some sort of organisation and he is some sort of leader.

Thanks @glinner.

Creamcar · 27/06/2020 08:43

The actions of TRAs on Twitter and on MN are very illuminating and really undermine their assertion that they just want to be allowed to live their life, discover their authentic self, etc.

It’s awful but unsurprising that @glinner has been banned. I hope he’ll be back. Brave, brave man.

Alltheprettyseahorses · 27/06/2020 08:41

From TRA comments I've come across on twitter over the last few months, GL has been targeted because they think he's our leader - that we women can't think and organise for ourselves but instead need a man to put ideas in our empty little heads. Which really exposes the raging hatred of and contempt for women behind this movement imo. Well if those people think we'll suddenly become Stepford compliant while our rights and reality are being sneaked away they'll be surprised. Tbh, I think the UK movement has gone as far as it can with the Tory plans to maintain the current level of women's rights due to be announced and these are the last tantrums. There'll no doubt be plenty of attempted reverse ferrets by the SJWs soon but too late.

PronounssheRa · 27/06/2020 08:40

Another post of support.

There has been an orchestrated campaign against Glinner for a while. Now these people will need a new hobby so expect an influx of shit posting for Twitter screenshot appearing on here.

Twitter the site where the word groomer is forbidden while actual groomers are welcome, you couldn't make this shit up.

Bowednotbroken · 27/06/2020 08:39

Thanks to Glinner - sorry you're getting so much trouble for stating truth!

334bu · 27/06/2020 08:39

Thank you Glinner

ThePurported · 27/06/2020 08:38

It just makes me wonder what sort of people run Twitter, and what do they stand for?

It's clearly not free speech, but on the other hand that U.S. charity for paedophiles is still allowed on there, the one that is headed by some fairly high profile ex-Silicon Valley type.
So now the situation is that you can't use the word 'groomer' on Twitter, but you can campaign to remove the stigma of being sexually attracted to children? I sense a pattern.

@bakingberry

Am I the only one that finds it odd that when a man gets kicked off twitter for hate speech he runs to a woman's only space to have a cry about it? I though he was an advocate of people finding their own spaces?

Mumsnet isn't a woman only space and never has been

Yes, you're probably the only person that thinks the defence of women's rights is hate speech. Thanks @glinner for everything

Well put, Errol
He's a feminist ally and very welcome here by me.

Hopefully yes, you are. He starts by apologising for barging in, communicates what's happened, and ends with where to find his own space.

ItsSummer · 27/06/2020 08:28

The TRAs I mean.

ItsSummer · 27/06/2020 08:27

@ErrolTheDragon

Bloody hell - Twitter banning the term 'groomer' and people that use it - while not afaik doing much to detect and ban groomers (correct me if I'm wrong on that) is appalling.

Wtf is their justification for banning the word 'groomer'?

to Glinner.

There’s SO much disturbing on twitter. Far worse than this work. Have all the people who abused JKR been banned?

VortexofBloggery · 27/06/2020 08:27

Thanks Glinner for speaking up for Women's Rights. I hope the baton is taken up by more men on Twitter. You had a good run.

LoislovesStewie · 27/06/2020 08:26

Not posted on here for ages; but couldn't leave without showing my support. keep on keeping on Glinner.

ItsSummer · 27/06/2020 08:25

Thank you @glinner the world needs more people like you who are willing to put themselves out there .
