What is in the water this week?! Glinner now making a mockery of the cause

I know I know I should just get off twitter but this week is just back to back GC news and not in a good way.

If you haven't seen, Glinner posted a video mocking Green Leader Zack Polanski, understandable plenty of material for a comedy writer there, but the video is so unhinged and unfunny.

Some speculating Graham was drunk when he made it but it's been 24 hours and he's left it up so maybe not.

I feel like we are finally gaining real ground in this fight and this makes GCs look like a bunch of lunatics.

I know there is no formal hierarchy but like it or not, for better and worse, we do have public faces and 'spokespeople' for this fight and this is just embarrassing.

I just feel so helpless because there can't be any accountability for this kind of thing but my God.

Thanks for listening to my rant, just been a very frustrating week.

Transphobic people are very much having their cake and eating it when it comes to Sophia.

You're all very much aware that she's been influenced (by the sounds of it, manipulated) by older people, but want to attack her as well.

It's the eagerness to treat the actions of a vulnerable kid like a true crime drama which stinks here.

Again, this is deeply unheroic behaviour and none of it is feminism. Everyone calling her by that pathetic name is just complicit in the online bullying of a vulnerable young adult.

If people didn't keep referring to this young adult male trans activist as a child and young girl, then people probably wouldn't feel the need to so robustly set the record straight.
Anyone reading your posts who wasn't aware of the back story or seen the footage might think this was a grown man acting against a girl child, rather than a grown man in a two sided altercation with a well built young adult male who had provoked him.
I personally don't like Glinner, but I also dislike the use of language to misrepresent and mislead. Particularly when it involves males appropriating the language used to describe MVAWG to ramp up their victim status.
If right is on your side you don't need linguistic trickery to make your case.

But it's okay for adults to group together, bully and pursue her?.

She's not the one who was up in court.

And yet, if a vulnerable ‘kid’ says they are the opposite sex, everyone is expected to treat that kid as if they are materially the opposite sex. And support medical treatment?

Honestly. Because Brooks said he was 18 at one time, then 17 at another, and has consistently lied, you think it's a great stick to beat people with. It isn't.

This is what Robbie Travers says, and he's had the misfortune of experience with him. Glinner's solicitors were very interested in what he had to say about some photos Brooks had of his family's houses and cars.

I captured video footage of Wallace & him, after approaching them to gain intelligence. They are very deluded, but I feel like people misunderstand that Tarquin is actually the driving force behind the malevolence. He isn’t just a victim, but a highly sadistic abuser.

Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g · 03/05/2026 10:31

I'll ask the question I've asked many times before. No satisfactory answer ever provided. Up until around 2000, gender clinics around the world had tiny numbers of patients and at least two thirds were male, whatever age they were. Then the numbers soared and now the clinics and practitioners working with younger adults and children/teenagers report seeing at least twice as many female patients as male. Why is that, if it's not social contagion?

The flip response is that it wasn't socially acceptable until very recently. Well, in that case, where are all the middle-aged and elderly transmen, i.e. females who can now finally live their authentic selves Hmm and identify as men? If it's perfectly acceptable now, why are their numbers vanishingly small while the number of trans-identified males in their middle or later years is going up?

He is a MALE with male intersex 5-ARD you liar. He is a male, a man. No women are being bullied out of sport.

SHE was a convenient target when no trans women were at the Olympics, and is a fantastic role model to Algerian girls. They look up to and respect her.

Calling her a man is racist and misogynistic af.

Why have you dismissed this young man’s stalking, dishonesty and harassment in the need to portray him as a child?

When in fact, it is questionable that he was a ‘child’ at the time of the event where he was yet again harassing women?

Do you believe that someone who has directly lied saying he was a ‘detransitioner’ and that he was a female to male detransitioner, in the year or so beforehand is being truthful about any aspect of his life?

When someone demands that they be treated as if they are the sex category that they are not, why should any other information the give be considered trustworthy? That is what happens when people understand they should respect that someone is the opposite sex to what they are, people are suspicious of anything they say and

It really is something when a group has to rely on coercion in someway, shaming / hate crime threats / intimidation etc, to force people to start thinking of that group as truthful.

Also, jfc get out more and cure your ignorance. Trans people exist, have done so without your permission forever and will continue to do so.

Being trans is normal. It doesn't make anyone dishonest, or a criminal.

Hating minorities is hating minorities, whatever justification you give yourself for it.

Being vulnerable and a minor (if that was even true at the time) is also no excuse for a young male person to be allowed to continue to harass people.

But it's okay for adults to group together, bully and pursue her?.

tell me you haven’t read the court documents without telling me you haven’t read the court documents.

Child at the time of offence, vulnerable young adult at the trial.

Misgendering, harassing and participating in the abuse of Sophia is not heroic behaviour. It doesn't make you a feminist martyr, it marks you out as someone eager to kick down at a minorify.

Nothing about this horrendous online harassment, which you're clearly enjoying, is feminism.

Please stop lying. That 'child' was stalking and harassing member of the public and shoving cameras in their faces. He is a menace. And supporting mis-sexing people, which can be dangerous for women, shows us who you are.

PS That 'child' was 17 years old when he stalked, harassed and abused members of the public. At 17 many are working full time jobs and/or at university. 17 is not a 'child'. You would have had the Jamie Bulger murderer kids let off because they were 10 years old so only 'children', going by that standard.

Edited

Now what group of people.argue 17 year olds aren't kids 🤔

The age of criminal.responsibility and age of vulnerability are different things, dude.

Weaponising poor James's suffering to justify your eagerness to bully a child is abject behaviour.

Tarquin's age seems to be a moveable feast, and when it comes to harassment and abuse he has an interesting track record.

It's not a coincidence that this delicate flower has tried to avoid being photographed at either of the trials.

Harassing a kid (or any vulnerable young person) doesn't make you a hero, love.

Very pleased Glitter's case was thrown out - really pissed off at the utter waste of court/police/CPS time spent on this drivel though. Also Glinner will have his costs paid - by the CPS, not the ghastly Tarquin. So tax-payer's money has ended up paying for this fiasco.
Time the police/CPS put a stop to this nonsense of vexatious cases.

Oh come on. There's lots of 'gardening' for our Graham on here.

Don't recall any for this case - wasn't he supported by the Free Speech Union? I heard he's working again in the US anyways, so I doubt he'll need anyone's help. He may not be much of an impressionist but he's got serious track record as a comedy writer.
