Polanski is a buffoon

1000 replies

How anyone can take the Green party leader Zac Polanski seriously is completely beyond me. He has zero grasp of economics, beyond conning women out of ££££s by pretending he could hypnotise them to increase their bust measurements. He is the worst representative of gay men who worship the men pretending to be women, with no regard for womens and girls' right to privacy, dignity and safety. The man is a 24 carat buffoon.

Or perhaps it's just you ignorant and naive and inexperienced 'younger crowd' have no respect for the hard won rights of those respected elder women who went before you, and no lived experience of how men can hurt women. You live in a privileged bubble of ignorance and lack of lived experience.

Hear, hear.

Bingo.

WOMENS RIGHTS isn't short-sighted. Your misogyny and Mens Rights Activism is short-sighted, and beyond thick. The fact is, you are in the minority, and polls from professional polling companies like YouGov show that each year, support for 'trans' issues decreases.

Essentially, all your argument appears to be is, you don't think like me so you aren't a woman, what am I supposed to be grasping here as I can't see any original thoughts only the manifestations of your retirement project! Like I said, some of us younger ones have a bit more to worry about.

And you still can’t understand why women won’t vote for parties where they support gender ideology and the dismantling of single sex spaces?

Unfortunately many of your posts just do not make sense.
Edited to add Like many, many women I have also been raped.

Funny how every one of you who I disclose my rape to automatically says they were raped too. What are the odds? Considering you showed NO empathy to me when I disclosed my rape to you, and considering you don't think rape survivors need or deserve female only spaces to get undress, I will consider the source.

It's not funny actually. It doesn't define me. However, your insistence that it can have only happened to you is absolutely bizarre. Don't tell women how they can and cannot process things you have no fucking right.

I didn't say that women don't deserve female only spaces where did I say that? Please quote me?

I don't need to persuade women of anything, I'm not even a committed Green party member, I'm telling you, the seemingly smugly ignorant that not 'all' women see this is their number one voting issue, in fact some of us understand the broader purpose of democracy. I appreciate that some have devoted their retirement to exploring this issue but some of us younger crowd understand the existential crisis we are currently facing with fascism abound!

I think you’ll find the young are totally over this gender shite too. Have you asked any secondary school kids about this recently? They’ll sigh and roll their eyes. They were all aboard about 5 years ago when it was cool. Now they just want to pee in peace and not play football with weirdos in their ‘girls’ team.

Where’s the argument then? All most women want is all biological men out of women ms single sex spaces / sports / jobs / healthcare / hospital wards etc. glad you finally agree. Now can you please explain this to the wider Green Party?

I'm not into this gender shite, that's literally my argument, keep up!

Caring about men dressed as women what not have stopped the man who assaulted me, he was very much a man.

I am not a green party member so you'd have just as much impact as me in writing to them. The question was abiut the appeal of the greens, I like their stuff on wealth inequality and the environment.

All of your posts say womens rights to single sex spaces is not an important issue. You say the majority don't agree with us (which is contrary to actual respected polls). Your whole time on this thread has been to argue against women having female only spaces. You really going to try to walk it back now?

Yeah because calling rape survivors fighting for female only spaces "narcissistic" whims is not defamatory....

Where are all these posts that state women's rights to single sex spaces are something I disagree with? Please quote me on that, you won't be able to as I didn't mention this once. Gender ideology is not something people are concerned by IME, I just don't think your average Joe cares as much if anything about that as they do about the housing crisis, the economy, being employed and being able to live a comfortable life.

You have argued against us fighting for these spaces, you even called them "narcissistic whims", you said no one really agreed with us. What is it about that, ISN'T fighting against womens rights to single sex spaces?

Individual narcissistic whims, familial concerns and outrages!

Please quote where I stated female only spaces are a narcissistic whim? You are just fabrication after fabrication. The narcissistic whims description is of the individualistic politics that many on this thread seem to be promoting. I think it is a threat to democracy and we've seen that played out in America.

Yes, see above, why is it deleted? What because you didn't understand? Your intellectual capacity to understand theories is not my problem.
