'Stewart McDonald, Kirsten Oswald, Kaukab Stewart and Alison Thewliss were at the Glasgow protest to support the trans community and stand up for Scotland's democracy.'

That's them standing in front of a sign that says 'decapitate terfs'.

Again, I'm genuinely fucking shocked. This inflammatory, violent rhetoric is not acceptable.

I don't care if they saw it or not. By now, there is no excuse for not knowing what the TRAs do at these public tantrums demos. There's every fucking chance you'll be pictured with something highly unpleasant/violent.

If you are in the public eye and you go in order to take part, people will draw their own conclusions. They're entitled to.

Have they any clue about the background of guy they were applauding? Who boasted about going mob handed to the bathrooms in the Scottish Parliament? To intimidate women.

Very disturbing.

I simply cannot believe that Alison Thewliss didn't see the poster. Did she never once glance behind? It's simply not credible.

She knew, but she said and did nothing, it's tacit support.

It's like Mhairi Black handwavjng away the abuse of female politicians in Westminster because it suits her ideology. It's shameful.

You know I no longer accept MPs or MSPs saying whoopsie we didn't realise we were on a platform with an exceptionally violent criminal, we didn't realise threats of violence were being made against women. They know, they just don't care.

I think it's far worse than not caring, they do care. But they think that they are in the right and are proud to stand next to horrible scumbags like them. They think it's a badge of their progressiveness.

More “look what you made me do” type replies to JKR I see.

JKR has tweeted about this:

Murdo Fraser MSP has reported it to the police:

She didn't see it? Well we can see her, make no mistake.

JellySaurus · 21/01/2023 16:10

I didn't see it. If I'd seen it I'd have told them it was naughty.

How about: it's appalling and does not reflect my beliefs in any way? How about: it's appalling and I dissociate myself from that attitude? How about even: I do not support violence against women, in any form?

Boiledbeetle · 21/01/2023 16:06

She honestly thinks she can get away with saying she didn't see it. Was she led to her spot with a blindfold on? And only removed the moment she was due to speak?

Thewliss dismisses concerns.

Women are at the receiving end of violence without repercussion

It’s ill-making.

How can anyone defend it

I remember watching the Trump fiasco play out over his final days and you could feel just from what was being reported and the footage that it was about to all go tits up and that loads of misogynistic men, and woman, that Trump was winding up was going to explode.. And then they did. And it was carnage.

This is very quickly starting to have that same frisson in the air about it.

the politicians are acting with and as the crazed mob.

It's Not good.

it's not safe.

it's not the right side of history.

ArabellaScott · 21/01/2023 15:46

I always see this stuff and think 'well, that's indefensible'.

Yet ...

'That banner is what happens after years of media/government attacks and lies. You can't just keep attacking a minority and not expect them to be angry about it.'

Thanks @Rainbowshit glad somebody has.

They seem like such nice well balanced people. They're welcome to pee next to me unless I see them first

Remember when Lisa Muggeridge warned us all about this?

In an abusive domestic partnership, the most dangerous time is when the victim tries to leave.

With this and the other thread on here where a man says he wants to drive a car into a crowd and 'explode' PP and other women, I don't understand how counter-terrorism police aren't involved, never mind ordinary police.
This isn't debate or frustration or 'protecting trans people'.
It's frequent, public and open threats of violence against women, a group with a protected characteristic.

Agree.

These are basically incels who are clever enough to have adapted their ideology to be palatable to "progressives". Only in a patriarchy was this going to work. It shows how far from equality women really are.

They are smiling under posters that say to kill women.

Wtf do you do when you've got angry MPs intimidating women MPs right in front of the speaker, and MPs joining protests and associating with open advocacy of murder of women? Where the fuck is the ombudsman for all this?

I really don't know. Is it not down to the party leaders to deal with this? If they can't see that this is far beyond any semblance of being reasonable, if they don't condemn it unconditionally, the country is fucked.

The hypocrisy is stunning, they whine about words being literal violence, then stand there offering actual violence. I agree, it should definitely be a Police matter.

ArabellaScott · 21/01/2023 15:39

Yes, this picture should be sent to all SNP and Green representatives for comment.
