Lists of banned words would be useful then.

toffeebutterpopcorn · 05/04/2021 15:35

How do they know? Interesting plot twist though eh?

@toffeebutterpopcorn

So who did it? Did I miss something?
Looks like the same people as defaced the mural.

You will have used a banned word or phrase. There are now algorithms to delete certain words.

Yeah, I’m feeling somewhat unjustly maligned by the title of this post.

@ASugarr

It's still a horrible thing to have happened to this woman's memorial.
And so surprisingly, zero comment on the fact that it wasn't actually GC feminists, as you and the OP want it to be. Tough luck, guys. We're not as awful you want to repeatedly suggest we are. GC feminists haven't committed any murders either.

I heard that the trusty regular acronym is now a banned term. Did your post feature that?

RedDogsBeg · 05/04/2021 15:16

@FeckTheMagicDragon

Ok, can someone tell me what rule I broke? I was musing on the reaction and anger of women and why my personal sympathies have gone out the window?
Your post went so quick I didn't see it, perhaps you used some banned words or terms. E-mail MNHQ and ask them why.

Careful. You might get misread as, "I eat tiny kittens" or something.

YetAnotherSpartacus · 05/04/2021 15:09

I wonder if trans groups also condemned the damage done to women’s memorial murals?

334bu · 05/04/2021 15:04

Absolutely ASugar r defacing a memorial is wrong. However, I was asking about the ,"transphobia" you saw in the graffiti on the centre. I didn't see any . Could you point it out?

Mummyoflittledragon · 05/04/2021 15:01

@ASugarr
It seems it wasn’t feminists in the end. But that wouldn’t suit your narrative, would it? Ffs

Feminist collective protests against proposed Trans and LGTBI laws at Spanish Equality ministry

A group of protesters, called by Espacio Feminista Radical (EFR), have gathered this Saturday at noon before the Ministry of Equality, in Madrid, to denounce the consequences that, in their opinion, will have the identity laws – Trans Law and LGTBI Law-– drafted by the department of Irene Montero

You know reading this makes me happy. It's not just us bots/a handful of women blah blah, it's even occurred to women in other countries that this may not be the greatest thing since sliced bread. I feel less alone in my tiny bot world.

And FWIW I utterly condemn all the vandalism. Especially any that cannot be removed if there is some.

adviceseekingnamechanger · 05/04/2021 14:20

@334bu

*Gosh that's horrible. Thank you for bringing awareness to this. Transphobia needs to end 🤍*

The graffiti on the centre is a bit difficult to read but it doesn't seem to include any attacks on trans people just people complaining about this organisation's misogyny, the rights of women to identify their own oppression etc. . Could you point the transphobia out to me ASugarr?

@ASugarr

Did you miss the post that makes it quite clear it wasn't feminists of any type that did that?

Quadzilla · 05/04/2021 14:16

Graffiti is a very common protest form in Spain.

Once went to Spain to watch the Tour de France. Overnight the Basque fans had spray painted every car on the mountain with ETA symbols. Shock

Hear, hear!
Here's some ideas to get you started:
Campaign for third spaces
Campaign for wraparound mental health care
Campaign for aftercare for surgery and ongoing mental health access
Campaign for toxic masculinity to be tackled in sports, enabling trans people to be part of the team without fear.

AnyOldPrion · 05/04/2021 13:57

Again, fighting for women’s rights is not transphobia.

Why don’t those of you who come here to harrass feminists on a feminism board go and do something useful, like fighting actual transphobia and leave feminists protesting over the erosion of women’s rights alone.

WoolOfBat · 05/04/2021 13:51

I also condemn the vandalism of the feminism murals. Vandalism of memorials is not on and I hope that there is CCTV so the culprits can be punished according to Spanish law.

@Shizuku I am sure that you join me in this?

I stated exactly the same yesterday when it was only the trans woman memorial.

^Montero present at the award event applauded when the announcement was made with a digital brick thrown to the digital picture of Lucía Etxebarria^

Awful. Yet doesn't deviate from the general tactics in the slightest there.
