Polanski is a buffoon

1000 replies

Bertiebiscuit · 07/02/2026 18:28

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.

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

Probably deleted because it was a personal attack on rape and abuse survivors fighting for female only spaces. You're not fooling anyone hiding behind your word salad.

You see for me their adherence to gender ideology and the idea that a woman can have a penis is like the Green Party saying they’ll hand over 10% of the UK budget every year to the Guardian, or the SNP handing 10% to the National, or the Tories saying they’ll hand 10% over to the Telegraph and then these parties asking you to focus on their other policies. There are no other policies you CAN look at because they’ve got a screamingly ridiculous one that bars you from ever voting for them. That’s what it’s like for so many women.

We’re not phobic of trans women. They’re men though and should be treated as all other men and barred from women’s single sex spaces for reasons of privacy, safety and dignity. It’s that simple.

The thing is, it really IS that simple, and it’s baffling that the left parties (and word salad posters) don’t get this.

No it wasn't. Goodness you sink low with your fabrications don't you.

When you vote it should be with your civic duty in mind not just about your individual freedoms and happiness.

You're the one sinking low with fabrications. You just lie and smear and deflect. If you had any arguments you would be able to defend them without lying, smearing posters and deflecting.

A civic duty should be to defend womens rights, which is a COLLECTIVE issue, not an individual issue. You are voting based on the individual, not based on the collective needs and rights of women.

It's about voting for the greater good, the many, not the few. The female population, not 1%.

You have been anti womens spaces then lied and said you weren't. You're the one that is pretty arrogant and don't like being told you're wrong. If nothing else you're very masterful at gaslighting and DARVO, accusing others of doing exactly what you are doing.

You literally, have not. You have even repeatedly refused to define a woman. You have made the same smears and slurs repeatedly and have not engaged with any arguments. People reading this thread can see this.

What's DARVO? Where have I stated I'm anti-woman spaces, please quote where I stated that? You won't be able to as you are the one writing a work of fiction! My point has been about the importance of gender ideology, in the real world Bob the Builder doesn't give these issues a first, second of third thought!

DARVO is an acronym for Deny, Attack, and Reverse Victim and Offender.

And there you go! You are doing it again! You are saying Gender Ideology (I am referring to womens rights, not just Gender Ideology) ie womens rights is not a first, second or third thought to half the entire population - women. Polls prove you WRONG! Most women care about womens sex based rights. Even though you repeatedly state you think womens rights are not an issue.

And you have repeatedly called those of us who care about this issue Badenoch/Farage shills. Smearing us and misrepresenting us. I doubt any, let alone most feminists on this thread will vote for Farage.

I can't believe US supporters seem to care more about stopping trans rights than women's abortion rights.

See this just goes to show that you have not paid ANY attention at all to this. It's not about stopping 'trans rights'. It's about RESTORING WOMENS RIGHTS.

And yes, the right of rape survivors like me to have safety, privacy and dignity when out in public in a womens toilet or change room IS a single issue for me.

Wow
You've been busy!
I think you need to step back from the insults you are throwing around....
I dont consider us to be that far apart.
If you read properly I dont think I have read anywhere that anyone particularly supports the greens view on men in women's spaces, sports etc. I certainly haven't and many of those you are hurling venom at haven't either. And I understand why this is a top priority for you, and you feel its been a terrible battle to get where we are now. And you dont want to lose that position again. I am with you on that!
I can also see where this issue has been taken too far (IMO) in other countries and womendid lose rights .
To be clear again I disagree with the green policy on this issue and it may well lose them my vote

But... and this is where we disagree... I honestly think this battle has been won and we won't go back there as a country....Thankfully!

So, in this context , I think the current new threats are the most important. Those being ..abortion rights, working rights, online safety issues etc etc. I see them as being the biggest threat in the future / now to women. With the US abortion issue being a massive concern .
l hope, the "what is a woman?" threat is in the past..

So women's rights are i.e. gender ideology is wholly about gender identity?

How is the battle won when Starmer, and the Scottish government, won't implement the Supreme Court clarification? How is it won when women are still to this day, losing their jobs for speaking out? How is it won when corporations, and even organisations like the Womens Institute, would rather disband than exclude males? We got an SC ruling. But what has truly changed since?
