Their minds are as tight shut as a gnat's chuff.

I honestly thought that ‘trans rights are human rights’ mantra had been done with because it is so easily countered with ‘women’s rights are human rights’. But oh well. They are clinging to it.

The Trans Rights Are Human Rights brigade says that's equivalent to Black Lives Matter, whereas Women's Rights Are Human Rights as a response is like the slur response to BLM ie All Lives Matter.

I think Tom Harlow has over reached his hand with yesterday behavior, he got a row from Scooter ( the First Minister) about the shouting at the women in the queue at Fillia, and he can’t sing for toffee!
Tom “ sings” and people peak!

Their protest was embarrassing for Glasgow and Scotland. There are women there from all over the world as JKR pointed out , who are discussing all manner of issues pertaining exclusively to women and this is the welcome they get.
I don’t think anything will be said to the trans woman Green councillor who was also present at their demo.
I’m going today and looking forward to it.

The person who organised the TRA protest at Portsmouth FiLiA too was called Stephanie, oddly enough, although spelled a bit differently.

The one with the obscene drawings & abusive language chalked on the ground in a busy square for children to see, and where the protesters yelled abuse that was easily audible inside, where women were talking about their experiences of sexual abuse.

They really covered themselves in glory that day. I wonder if that Stephanie's in Glasgow

I believe this is Portsmouth Stephanie

https://www.gendergp.com/my-story-steph/

and in their defence they were mortified (and reduced to tears) by the graffiti that had been chalked on the square in Portsmouth. A group of young teenagers, who seemed very vulnerable appeared to be responsible for the majority of the chalk markings.

Still there at the protest that Steph organised though - or is Steph saying that association is not a thing?

So, no evidence from our latest activist poster? Oh well…. How surprising!

( Readers note: There is a constant stream of repetitious accusations about feminists being held responsible for extremist’s actions and those about false nazi or far right wing associations. Not one poster has yet to produce any evidence to support those accusations. Why? Well because they are all unfounded. Particularly the Nazi/far right association accusation which has been shown to be based on the repetition of Wikipedia entries which are in turn unevidenced. )

But do keep on posting unfounded crap stephanee. If you really believe that unevidenced misinformation, so much you repeat it on MN’s posts, readers must look at all your assertions knowing just how low the bar would be for you to believe falsehoods and pseudoscience. However, I am hoping you come back with evidence, it would be the first time someone has done so.

I mean, they just make themselves look like dicks:

"It's not trans violence that's the problem, it's male violence" Well durrrrr!

"Yes it's important to stand up for women in Afghanistan and Iran- but what about traaaaaans?"

Just fuxk off!!!

That sign in the foreground cuts to the chase, doesn't it?

"No feminism without trans women."

Female people are not allowed their own equality movement.

Even though trans people have theirs.

Yes. I’ve got pleasant memories of being a bit early to one of KJK’s Hyde Park events, along with two others, and the three of us being surrounded by a group of large & threatening protesters brandishing flags & chanting. The police were trying to ‘placate’ them.

It is mind blowing!

My Story: Steph

I lived with my parents, together with my older sister in an old, cold, four-roomed cottage, deep in the English countryside.

Yes. It is remarkable how much direct experience many of us seem to have with these types of accusations and threats. Remarkable behaviour that is not what I would expect from adults.

Ereshkigalangcleg · 13/10/2023 21:31

was told by a 'Steph' who was male that I was directly responsible for the violence of male people assaulting each other and intimidating women in front of the WiSpa....

Yes, I was told I was responsible for the Proud Boys turning up

Fresh (that's me) People were stabbed, that's without dispute. Far right morons turned up as a result widespread GC rhetoric. Trans people have had to own the prison service mistake with regards to KW. These things don't happen in a vaccuum, you and the right wing thugs you have whipped into a frenzy own this. It's fine to GC, just own the disgusting things that you incite. The deflection and avoidance of responsibility is almost as bad the act itself. I feel for you, I really do, there's just no hope. Take care.

EmpressaurusOfCats · 13/10/2023 21:18

There’s also Stefonknee in Canada, the trans six-year-old.

I was told by a 'Steph' who was male that I was directly responsible for the violence of male people assaulting each other and intimidating women in front of the WiSpa.... just by discussing the rights of the six year old and the nine year old girls who had been exposed to aroused penised in the female only spa section.

MargotBamborough · 13/10/2023 17:04

@Stephannee Do you have any proof that the bomb threat you referred to earlier was made by a gender critical feminist?

Waitwhat23 · 13/10/2023 16:45

I'm just going to ignore the posts from our current resident TRA as frankly, I just can't be arsed.

Anyway, Councillor Elaine Gallagher attended the protest at Filia, standing front and centre with the ridiculous man shouting 'fuck you' at women. Councillor Gallagher is Scottish Greens (unsurprisingly) and his male privilege just shines through.

The one with the obscene drawings & abusive language chalked on the ground in a busy square for children to see

Julie Bindel at the time:

At the end of today’s conference, there will be a vigil to honour the many victims of femicide. The plan was to be outside, in the weak autumn sunshine, reading out the names of the women who died at the hands of men and to call for an end to deadly male violence. The fact that we will have to do this on a pavement defaced with such misogynistic graffiti is as heart-breaking as it is infuriating.

...but IMO it isn't on the same level as making a hoax bomb threat on a children's hospital...

A threat against, not on. Tsk! Honestly!

Ereshkigalangcleg · 13/10/2023 15:31

I agree setting off a smoke screen at the site of a tragic fire is very insensitive

Yes. It is. Smoke bombs.

Which side are the b*mb threats coming from again? And which side are the Nazis on again?

If someone accuses your side of being largely ridiculous, you can't refute that by saying, "what about you?".

Like someone accusing a person of having a ridiculous haircut, they can be correct about that, even if they have a ridiculous haircut themselves.

But let's be generous, and say that it could still be fair rhetoric in some circumstances.

But your own point just doesn't mean anything. Or very little anyway. It doesn't mean that the GC feminist side is also largely ridiculous. It only means that a small number of individuals, likely not even identifying as GC feminist, can act in criminal ways over certain issues tied up with the debate. OK, how is that a response to your side being largely ridiculous?

As for Nazis, that would be a guilt by association fallacy. Also, they probably aren't going to really like the GC feminist perspective. There may be some overlap where they can agree, but that overlap is also shared with mainstream conservatives and plenty of people on the left. That it's also shared with Nazis is just meaningless.
