Wow, such damage, it's been totally defaced forever, gosh how has no outlet but the Telegraph covered the utter destruction of this statue by someone writing on it with some chalk.

Theeyeballsinthesky · 19/04/2025 17:58

This week just gets better and better

I wonder what cause these rentamob thugs will attach themselves to when gender ideology has gone out of fashion.

JazzyJelly · 19/04/2025 17:59

Absolute bastards! If they were actually women they would never even think to do such a thing.

Diverze · 19/04/2025 18:02

People are allowed to protest.

Anyone hurt? Was anyone behaving violently? Anyone arrested?

Quite a few parents of trans adults I know attended and they describe it as powerful, supportive and positive and said they didn't see any trouble.

And X is not the most reliable and non biased of sources is it, any more than pink news?

Also, would "fag rights" be written by a trans person?

The Mail has it too. I don't expect you'll approve of that either. Do you know for sure it's chalk? It's not a good look even if it is chalk, tbh. Do these numpties not approve of women campaigning to get the vote?

Ah don't worry, misogyny never goes out of fashion!

Well they would, wouldn’t they? They have no self awareness. It’s all me, me, me and my ‘feelingz’

What are they protesting about? How can anybody be angry that it is now crystal clear that males, whether trans-identifying or not, can be excluded from women-only spaces and services like prisons, rape crisis centres, refuges and hospital wards? How it is a problem for all males to be excluded from women's sport?

Unitarily · 19/04/2025 18:04

I thought it said far right and thought that makes no sense! Fag rights. Not sure what thats supposed to mean.

Atleast its chalk.

I'm not exactly sure, I didn't go along and didn't see a need to. However as I said, peaceful protest is legal.

LlynTegid · 19/04/2025 18:06

Just Stop Oil lost support by their tactics. Defacing statues will not help trans people.

exwhyzed · 19/04/2025 18:11

I've seen the pictures.

My observation is I couldn't attend a protest on an Easter Bank Holiday with only a few days notice - coz, childcare/Easter egg hunts to sort, responsibilities to see elderly family etc.

Do these men with their womanly feels not have these womanly responsibilities too? Clearly not.

Notaflippinclue · 19/04/2025 18:13

That’s not very lady like

The piss protest apparently planned for tomorrow (the odious India Willoughby has reminded protesters to drink lots of water) has precedent -

https://www.vice.com/en/article/pissed-off-trannies-ehrc-protest/

I'm not sure how many women stand in the street, pouring bottles of piss over themselves, as part of a protest.

Quite a male thing, really.

And defacing a statue (though a predictably shitty thing to do) is relatively mild by TRA standards. They normally dress in black balaclavas, punch women in the face and allow convicted attempted murderers a platform to incite violence against women.

Trans Activists Left Over 60 Bottles of Piss Outside the EHRC

Pissed Off Trannies (POT) staged the dramatic demonstration to protest the equality watchdog's exclusionary policy on single-sex spaces.

Presumably if scientists tested all that piss they'd find it cane from 60 biological men.

Here's some of the placards at the 'powerful, supportive, positive' protest today -

https://x.com/LilyLilyMaynard/status/1913595795602817257

I'm just surprised they didn't dust off the 'decapitate terfs' placard for a bit of nostalgia.

Are they just so 'stunning and brave'

FOJN · 19/04/2025 18:27

Pouring piss over yourself isn't a protest it's a fetish.

Aren't

But we've been told both sides are as bad as each other....

Isn't the Fawcett Society pro trans?

Yes, ironically.

But I don't want to intimidate someone until they agree with me. I don't want to carry posters that call for violence against the trans community. I just want them to acknowledge the ruling that you remain the sex you were born and that has legal implications. I don't actually want to behead a man in a dress

@Diverze definitely powerful, asking people to shit on heads,self labotomise through the eye with a knife and so on. 😕
