With Scotland going in the direction it is we need this change on Twitter

There’s danger words will lose real meaning otherwise

It is good to see that free speech is making a return to Twitter. Let's hope that it continues to do so in properly reasonable ways.

Just in case any lurkers haven't seen this yet, here is Posie demonstrating why some people are so very keen to keep her quiet:

Doesn't matter. People would still seek it out to complain and be offended.

and feminism chat is tumbleweed central a lot of the time. I do pop over there sometimes when I remember, but there's rarely much going on

ResisterRex · 22/12/2022 10:50

I don't think it should change either. The chat section isn't really used which shows that this is the board people want to use. The fact it continues to be sought out by people to have a whinge hasn't changed. But that's life. And debating is fine.

BernardBlacksMolluscs · 22/12/2022 10:50

I don't even like Posie that much

But I do love how she brings out the inner loon in some of the people who post here

most entertaining

I’m sure they would but I’m not losing the feminism part to appease.

Avoid the gender part or post but no change on name imo

ResisterRex · 22/12/2022 10:35

MarshaBradyo · 22/12/2022 10:30

It doesn’t need to be renamed. There’s chat part and gender part already segregated

If posters want to avoid the gender part they can easily.

Meghan Murphy on Musk, which I think is very good:

Personally I think he's done a lot to expose what's gone on behind the scenes at Twitter. I hope he does more. Especially on child sexual abuse material, as well as the involvement of the FBI in taking down Wrong Think.

Onnabugeisha · 22/12/2022 10:34

I think there should be a politics talk topic, with GC under there as it is a political movement. 🤷‍♀️

Yes, 100% agree. It needs to be renamed.

No it doesn’t…

Ask MNHQ to change it then 🤷‍♀️

Receipts please @antelopevalley or stop lying.

Its no lie. You got the evidence already on earlier threads. You just refuse to believe anything that might tarnish KJK’s halo.

antelopevalley · 22/12/2022 01:40

Women on the feminism board don't care that she associates with extreme right-wingers and rascists like Tommy Robinson.
The feminism board should be renamed the gender critical board, because it has fuck all to do with feminism.

Yes, 100% agree. It needs to be renamed.

How exactly is Elon Musk supporting GC women? He might be a free speecher or he might like masculine gender roles only on men or feminine gender roles only on women… so he might not like the imposition of gender identity politics on institutions including his own social media platform … fine. But when has he ever been actively anti-sexist? which would be a massive part of actually being ‘gender-critical’.

Particularly what has Musk done after taking charge of Twitter, which can be an absolute cesspit of algorithmically-enhanced echo chamber misogyny, usually left up completely unchallenged?

I’m happy to see Posie back in the mainstream Twitter fray because the ban was unjust but that’s it. I clicked on this because I thought she was back on MN! (That’s another unjust ban..)

EdithStourton · 22/12/2022 09:47

Brilliant that she's back.

Nigelladamascena · 22/12/2022 09:29

Great news, might have to join Twitter.

MarshaBradyo · 22/12/2022 08:51

I’m not on Twitter but I’m glad GC women are coming back

onedayiwillmissthis · 22/12/2022 08:48

Excellent news. Perhaps Mumsnet could now reinstate ALL those women with opinions that men disagree with?

TofuonToast · 22/12/2022 08:21

Who’d have thought Elon Musk of all people would have been such a supporter of GCs. Couldn’t have predicted that 3 years ago!!

GoldenPineapple88 · 22/12/2022 08:17

This is brilliant news. Posie is amazing.

heathspeedwell · 22/12/2022 08:15

Posie is magnificent.
