Daniel = @d_lawrence89

Helleofabore · 18/09/2023 12:19

Oh.... look at that.... PBPs on this thread.... backing up accusations about Glinner making threats, apparently against women.

At this point, I need to point out that the supposed 'threat' was made in response to a twitter profile called Daniel who is apparently a 'he / him' and was general in nature about protestors. It should be noted that 'Daniel' has also deleted their tweet from what I can see (please do post the thread so we can ALL see it if it is still available).

So, rather than taking Pink News' word for it, perhaps posters should seek out the full context before posting anything more.

Who are the 'women' you keep referring to ?

Who is Daniel? I think we should be told!

If it turns out to be a certain Owen McLove soundalike , millions of Irish women of a certain age are going to be a bit disappointed. More more jumper cakes for Daniel.

One of them was Sara Pascoe and another was Aisling Bea, I can't remember the third.

Sara Pascoe was one of the first female comedians calling out male comedians predatory behaviour.

Sara Pascoe says comedians tried ‘setting up union’ to stop ‘sexual predators’

Stand-up comedian spoke to The Independent before Russell Brand was accused of sexually assaulting four women, which he denies

And the stench of desperation emanating from this thread grows stronger...

Russell Brand and Owen Jones were pals. 'Our generation's Orwell' said Brand of Owen Jones. Jones interviewed him on stage, fawningly. Very odd.

Can you tell us please what part of 'Durr imm gonna kill em.' is an indication that this was ever meant to be anything but a joke.

Do you think people start their threats with 'durr' usually? I think you are very desperately grasping at straws. He was mirroring what extreme TRAs have been saying, and signalled this with that 'durr' and poor grammar as an indication to very basic, poorly thought out actions.

He is a writer, do you think that he has never used a mirroring device in his comedic writings before?

And no, Graham Linehan is nothing at all like Russell Brand. The two situations are not comparable at all.

Abhannmor · 18/09/2023 11:49

Yes @ArabeIIaScott if Glinner had been sent to prison for kidnap , rape and torture and then attempted to murder his cell mate , I think some helpful Guardian columnist might have brought it up by now.

"I notice that you didn't actually post that, did you? That twitter reversed their decision?"

Probably helps that Elon Musk is a gender critical himself innit?

"Yes, it was a joke. Only someone who is either unfamiliar with humour or who is determined to only present one side of the story would post this."

Well in that case, Sarah Jane Barker was just "joking" too wasn't she?

Mr Barker is a violent criminal who breached the terms of his release from prison.

LizaBizza · 18/09/2023 11:39

While don't condone either GL or SJB's threats/jokes, saying one will kill women is quite a step up from saying one should give people with gender critical views a bop on the nose.

ArabeIIaScott · 18/09/2023 11:37

Sarah Jane has convictions for kidnapping, torture, and attempted murder.

Graham, as far as I'm aware, does not.

Abhannmor · 18/09/2023 11:36

Nobody here is going to read the drivel in PN.

But I have Glinners post in my head : 'Durr imm gonna kill em. Fuck of Daniel you men's rights activist'

Obviously a figure of speech. My union rep told me ' I'll eat em alive ' referring to the management when I was in a dispute. Twitter didn't exist then so he wasn't given a written warning for cannibalism.

No idea who Daniel is bit he certainly isn't ' women '. Your posts are becoming quite deranged Lizabiza.

Possible they don't care
Possible they actively enjoy it.

I believe that you have it right, no 'possibly' for most of them.

Hmmmm challenge accepted...

Of course I'll fuck it up by the end of the first post as i have weird spelling autocorrects on my tablet fur some reason because im a lazy cow and cant be arsed to reset them.

right off to eat Tunnocks and edit a book.

erm...

I'm off to drink champagne and read the Guardian!

😁

I couldn't try it myself. I would give my self away within three posts.... or as someone once said ... essays...

Helleofabore · 18/09/2023 11:31

LizaBizza · 18/09/2023 11:04

Sounds familiar.

Since you mention the topic, it sound just like GL who was banned from Twitter for threatening women. But he later said it "was a joke", so I guess that makes it ok?

https://www.thepinknews.com/2023/04/16/anti-trans-graham-linehan-suspended-twitter-again/

Yes, it was a joke. Only someone who is either unfamiliar with humour or who is determined to only present one side of the story would post this.

Because within days, Twitter reversed their decision because they realised that it was an obviously ridiculous claim that was made to have him banned from twitter.

I notice that you didn't actually post that, did you? That twitter reversed their decision? Why wouldn't you want people to know that Pink News also probably never published that fact either... because why? Do you think that you and Pink News have simply abandoned reality and that Pink News has never embraced balanced reporting (or not for years now in any case)?

Do you actually believe things that Pink News publish without checking further? I mean, I am always upfront that people need to go further and verify news from original sources where possible, but you have just indicated that you take your opinions from Pink News.... hardly credible is it?

But because you are desperately attempting to provide evidence to your vile accusation that he threatens people, you posted that.

You have no proof, because there is no proof. You are actually now repeating libellous claims on the internet though. Well done. It further shows that you have nothing but false hoods.

Please stop repeating such libellous claims.

I wouldn't class you as a detractor Boiled, oops I mean Mypeniscalledstella!

Most of the men do, certainly.
