Sisters Uncut

Good crowdfunding response

I received this reply today.

People need to know that Sisters Uncut do not represent women. But then who does? Who is our group? Who is championing the rights of biological women?

Civil disobedience - what’s sauce for the goose and all that.

I agree with you toffee. It is unbelievable what is going on at the moment, but the press just skirt around it. They are all too terrified of losing their jobs.

It’s up to us, I’m afraid. If we have any hope of preserving our female-only spaces, sports, positions, etc. Then we need to do something.

Can’t someone sent out a bat signal to the press on this? I know they are scaredy-cat to disagree with this bunch but come on... is ‘real’ journalism dead?

Interesting contrast to how fast they can get a crowdfunder for a specific rape shelter shut down.

Just seen this on Twitter:

@FloraFox thank you for that link

They are discussing all this at DSs school. I’ve made sure he has the facts...

I am surprised Just Giving haven't cancelled them and returned the donations. That's how questionable groups are normally handled isn't it?

I've posted this on the Reclaim These Streets thread:

This group has raised more than half a million pounds on their JustGiving website. According to the website, you can only raise funds for one specified registered charity per page or for local or personal causes. They haven't specified which charities they will give the money to but have indicated on twitter that it will likely include Sisters Uncut who are using the response to Sara's death to campaign for rapists and murderers of women.

You can complain about the fundraising generally using this link (which isn't so easy to find on the webpage). I think most of the donors would be surprised to learn their donations might find their way into the pockets of people campaigning for rapists and murderers.

• Why are they shouting speeches at a peaceful vigil? Leaves a bad taste in my mouth to be honest

We know why, it's because half the nation's press was there with their cameras.
As some of our new friends on the vigil thread were saying -the leaders of the vigil were there giving speeches.
Who decided themselves leaders ?

What is very worrying, I'll phrase this vaguely and carefully, there is a lot more that I can't repeat publicly, is the obsession with talking about police brutality and state violence at every speech, demo and interview. That is not what will help ensure a fair trial considering the employment of the accused.
Several groups decided the vigil was theirs to take over and they don't seem to care that the investigation go smoothly.

I also have a very nasty taste in my mouth.

Sisters Uncut and others of their ilk can only cause violent street demonstrations and disruption because the UK electorate when it comes to electing Governments will vote Tory rather than these crackpots and their fellow travellers in the Labour Party. So that's it. A Tory Government in perpetuity.

From what I can gather, any discussion about sex work and how women as commodities is bad for all women, power structures, what choice really means in a patriarchy, is swerfy talk.
Even if you're an exited woman.
Anything less than 'sex work is work' is exclusionary and harmful to sex workers.
There's a new thread where someone has recommended Dr Jess Taylor's work and its been jumped on by people shouting terf.
How are we supposed to get anything done or change things like this?
Have to say I feel sorry for the mods.

Sorry that wasn't clear due to typos. Michelle Pearce was serving life for murdering her mother,and died of cancer while in prison.

I mean they cant name any of these TW of course but they were most definitely there

Actually, new research from the Super community has concluded it was the Supers at the forefront of all feminist and SLGBT movements.

A Super handed Marsha P Johnson the first brick at Stonewall.

So as well as including 7 biological males who were either muderers, paedophiles or rapists, Sisters Uncut's list of "women murdered by the state" includes:

Michelle Pearce, serving life for murdering her mother who died of cancer

Magdalena Luczak, the mother of Daniel Pelka, whom she starved, tortured and beat to death. Who committed suicide.

Fucking. Hell.

Do they really think that women who want single sex spaces would exclude sex workers?

Surely no one is that stupid? Or do they just chant TRF and SWRF without really thinking about it?

Didn’t Harry Enfield do a sketch where the characters hook was ‘X? We invented that!’ In response to everything (electricity, cars, giraffes....)

Honestly Sunset I think they do

I mean they cant name any of these TW of course but they were most definitely there

It would be funny if it wasnt so fucking disrespectful

Do these people really believe that?

Reading that Facebook page made me think of Private Eye when they do the funny social media discussions.
