GLAAD have published an "accountability project"

I would have loved to have read that as a child toffee

I modelled myself on a mashup of Mildred Hubble/a young female version of Mr Majeika

I hope they have good lawyers because writing lies about famous people, doesn’t usually go down very well.

Fun fact - when I was little I used to write stories and books (needless to say, unpublished) and one was about a school for witches called The Night School (copyright Toffeebutterlopcorn 1975).

Every evening you got into your school uniform and sat on the end of your bed with your hands on your knees and was magically spirited away to the witch school, where you learned about spells and cursing people (I was more like Wednesday Adams in that respect) and in the morning you’d wake up in your own bed.

Sigh. I really really wanted to be a witch. But I actually grew out of it by the time I was about 9.

Are they also realising that magic isn’t real and Hogworts doesn’t exist?

"Fans are discovering that someone they once treated as omniscient, someone they loved with a ferocious, possessive, childish love, is an entirely different person, with different values from their own.”

Bloody hell, it's the whole 'omg mum has sex ' thing isn't it.

Mummy has a life and existence and thoughts beyond meeeeeee! The nerve of her!

This apparently counts as disparaging Harry Potter fans: "Fans are discovering that someone they once treated as omniscient, someone they loved with a ferocious, possessive, childish love, is an entirely different person, with different values from their own.”

Yes, those entirely different values would be feminist values and care for women and girls, safeguarding children, and fairness.

Though to be fair there do link to two articles by her.

I looked up what they say about Helen Lewis. It starts
"Wrote in opposition to U.K. legislation that would ease the process of changing one’s legal gender by, in part, removing the requirement of a medical diagnosis from two separate doctors. Lewis wrote, “What the government proposes is a radical rewriting of our understanding of identity: now it’s a question of an internal essence—a soul, if you will. Being a woman or a man is now entirely in your head.” Lewis also asked, “In this climate, who would challenge someone with a beard exposing their penis in a women’s changing room?”
And it continues.
Instead of linking to where she actually wrote that, they link to a hatchet job in wired who quote an op Ed in the Times. That seems to be their MO.

I'll just point out the interesting double standards too.

There's a lot of protest and pointing out of how sinister lists can be when it comes to a census, not wanting records held like that regardless of the innocence of their original purpose.

But absolutely fine to create an intentional black list of those to punish for their sins.

Isn't it funny how othering that is? And the lack of reciprocal empathy and values?

This is really chilling. Google Jesse Singal if you're not familiar with him already. He's been utterly slandered and his career destroyed.

Do we just email them to have our names added? How does it work?

I see Helen Lewis

Helen's (who I do nevertheless admire) "true trans" TWAW views go much less far than many. Proof that only 100% compliance is ever acceptable.

I’m going to set up my own little list then.

‘Enemies of TBC’ there may be a ‘Friends of TBC’ one too.

GLAAD is an American non-governmental media monitoring organization, founded as a protest against defamatory coverage of LGBT people. Its agenda has since extended to the entertainment industry and its portrayal of these groups."

They also hold award ceremonies, one of which Dawn Butler, Labour MP, attended.

Not clicking - who are these people? What are they for?

God, this is so, so sinister. Frankly, who do they think they are?

Like anyone in GLAAD gives a fuck about the L.

GLAAD'S theme-song:

"I'm tired of moanin'...".

Any chance they'll have an 'accountability project' for anyone who engages in violent threats (inc sexual violence) and actions?

I see Helen Lewis, Debra Soh and Abigail Shrier also listed as well as Jo Rowling and Germaine Greer. Most of the names are unknown to me apart from those and a few US politicians.

I wonder how long before there is a list including names of private citizens...

Anyone read the book thief? Didn’t the parents of the main character hold objectionable views?

Along with the book burnings it all feels rather disturbing.

Thumbs up from Jo here.

Ah, a list of people guilty of wrong think. How progressive.

Do they have any idea how this looks, at all.

I'm guessing the idea is to create fear to prevent other people from speaking.
