Like an awful Kevin and Perry tribute act 😆

@dropthevipers
It sounds like something produced by Rick from The Young Ones. If they did a remake of that show, his character would be one of those idiots demanding is rights to have sex with lesbians.

They think they are guerrillas.

I can't get over the balaclavas. Did no-one warn them about the optics?
What were their mums thinking, letting them go out dressed like that?

I kind of agree. Looking at some of the audience there, you can't help but think that they were the kind of people who were destined to a life of dungeons & and dragons and wa*nking over Game of Thrones before TRAs came along and let them believe that trans activism somehow makes them interesting.

Quite.

Julie Bindel has just asked on twitter which genius came up with "black pampers" ? 🤣

Just seen that - brilliant!

Also from twitter:

The Black Mega Blocks
The Them in Black

It reads as co-opting the history of women's oppression as somehow being trans oppression. Surprised they haven't attempted to link slavery, the Holocaust and Pol Pot as proof of how mean everyone us to them.

Two comments on Stephen Knight's Twitter thread made me laugh, 'pound shop ninja' and 'traliban'. I thought both were inspired.

The best one has to be The Barbie Meinhof Gang.

I'm intrigued by this assertion that MRAs and TRAs are "100% different". Sounds like a bit of a binary view. Surely it's a spectrum?

Can you point to something that all TRAs have that no MRA has? What's the universal shared experience of a TRA that means that an MRA can't be one?

Are you saying someone assigned MRA can't choose to be a TRA? Bit bigotted.

Fantastic talent, I loved her poem and Ajay's as well.

CharmD · 16/05/2022 07:43

Why have you assumed they are MRAs? Have you considered they were TRAs, which is 100% different?

They are just very naught boys.

bloko harem
😂

too afraid to show their faces. In case their mums saw them I heard 🤣🤣🤣
Their GC mums are probably busy on MN

"I knew they were going to spin it to make us seem more violent"

Interesting truth slipped in there in 'more' violent.

As horrible as it as that MRAs feel entitled to do this, it's made it a HELL of a lot easier for me to talk to friends and family about this sort of thing.

I may be a rabid old uterus-haver but ultimately, I'm pretty lazy, and more than happy for others to do my job for me.

There's a bloke holding up a banner saying 'Radical Trans Liberation Now'. Anyone know what that means?🤔

I have noticed in the recent months that ‘trans liberation’ is being used a whole lot more. After recent incidents and court cases that have been won, guidances issued etc.

It seems to be an attempt to distract away from appearing to uphold some rather totalitarian and other problematic tactics. Tactics and claims that have been shown to be unreasonable and in some instances, very harmful.

Liberation certainly fits the ‘most oppressed and most vulnerable’ narrative too.

Rightsraptor · 16/05/2022 04:59

I remember that batshit list! It's from 2017, I can't see anything more recent than that year on the website so hopefully they've disappeared.

It's so, so batshit that you asssume that it's some sort of tongue in cheek joke but nope, it appears to be entirely genuine.

Wow. "We demand utopia but only for us." Food shall fall like manna from the heavens, it seems.

Written by some very very young people?

How are these things publicised?

She will publicise them on her YouTube and via the SFW mailing list. I get mails and I'm not a paying member. The Hyde Park ones are most months, occasionally they are elsewhere.
