Rabbit rescue targeted by TRAs

I saw Rosie Duffield tweet about this the other day. A charity that rescues rabbits has been coming under attack from TRAs. I'm not entirely sure what their 'crime' is; I think it's to do with an account they have followed. Which makes them actual Nazis of course 🙄

This is their X account. They (and the bunnies) could do with some support

If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes I wouldn't believe the absolute deluge of insults and harassment this charity has put up with for over a week.

The guy who runs it has a sharp sense of humour but the harassment is truly off-the-scale deranged.

As I (mis?)understand what's happened, initially someone spotted that Carrot cottage rabbit rescue were following a Far Right account on Twitter, they were attacked for that, while they were trying to explain that this was simply them not being careful enough, someone then applied a purity test of asking them to confirm their adherence to genderism, and they explained they were just a bunny sanctuary and didn't want to entangle themselves in a contentious political issue. At that point an Antifa-type attack morphed into a trans activist-type attack. (Obviously there's a lot of overlap being the mobs involved.)

If I've got that wrong I'd welcome being corrected.

It’s all getting a bit meta

Are they accusing the original TRA bully of not really being trans? That's transphobic.

Treaclewell · 09/06/2025 09:42

I find this simply unbelievable. That someone should have attacked in the first place and then said it wasn't them it was a false flag attack to elicit funds.
Like the medieval bunny!
Is theis in the national press anywhere? It really needs to be spread about. I once saw a wild buck on look out duty for his warren seeing off a stoat (or weasel) with a loud thumping to warn the rest, and a threatening advance on the mustelid. Wh8ich retreated. This needs that spirit to oppose it.
It is mad.

When young I had a female rabbit who hated all men, I sincerely doubt a dress or a head tilt would have fooled her. She would definitely have qualified as a terf because she absolutely expected a female only space.

Love the ‘non bunnary’ comment 🤣

MoominUnderWater · 09/06/2025 07:48

And there was me thinking the protesters just wanted the domain name of Carrot Cottager and that was the reason for the bullying 😂

And they say it's not a mental health issue...

Are they genuinely claiming that MN instigated a fake TRA attack on a bunny sanctuary to gain clicks on X?

Or have I missed something? Honestly the bonkersness at the moment is very hard to follow...

It goes against everything I believe in but I think we've tried to help and made things worse for these lovely people. Can I ask you please not to make this worse for them, give lots on their Amazon wish list but pull back from posting on their site. I can't believe these TRA are so bloody wicked and I'd happily kick their arses but these good people have now become victims. If anyone knows how we can safely help them please say

The Charity Commission must be sick to the back teeth of Trans related vexatious complaints and being used by them as a stick to try and batter anyone who they're currently having a Daily Hate at.

ExitPursuedByABare · 08/06/2025 17:08

They are seriously unhinged.

I hope the charity commission laughs in their faces.

What a ridiculous thing to do.

I hope so too but really feeling for them :( all they want to is help rabbits and this must be so stressful!

Hi there! No more balls, but still a boy.

Howard will be disappointed. He’s one of those dinosaurs who knows that no matter what surgery you have you remain the sex you’re born as. His transphobia knows no bounds!

Carrots are high in sugar and not very healthy for rabbits (misses the point of the thread).

Is this beauty a male or female? Asking for a friend who always has room in his heart for another special lady to add to his collection of wives.

They are back on the bunny threads this morning because the bunny people thanked James Dreyfus for amplifying their account which has helped them raise unprecedented funds to feed and care for bunnies. They have been told liking these posts makes them transphobic and trans people feel unsafe. Not sure why trans people need to feel safe and centred on bunny pages but there you go… oh and the fake accounts were actually trying to take the donations so please be careful where you donate. There’s some shitty people out there.

It’s the fucking narcissism of it all. Trying to make themselves bigger victims than the most badly treated pet in existence. As a pp said, the people in rabbit rescue get no thanks, and are self funded. People helping the defenceless being targeted like this is foul.

TheOtherRaven · 07/06/2025 13:48

Feeling 'unsafe' about a rabbit charity existing that has thanked James Dreyfus.

I guess if there were a cohort of people to be triggered at the sight of a carrot, this would be them.

This is also a brilliant example of peopke who were probably mostly unaware of all the trans issues being rapidly peaked thanks to the TRA own actions. Theyre now talking about naming bunnies after HP characters 😆

I remember the days when Ross Tucker thought if he patiently and gently explained the science behind men being advantaged in women’s sport that TRA would understand and agree. I think they peaked him in about a day 😆
