So, hands up if you have been blocked by LM on Twitter?

Due to the fact that I have never actually had any contact with LM, and had only liked (or did the heart thing - I'm a bit Twitter illiterate) 2 comments on a Twitter feed (1 - very politely pointed out that LM has not actually spoken about a single women's issue since being in the role and 2 - pointed out, again politely, that LM seems to be more interested in trans issues than women's issues).. I'm going to assume it doesn't take much to be blocked by LM.

I have never posted anything derogatory or even commented on anything to do with LM On Twitter.

Have I managed to be no platformed without actually saying a word? Hmm

raises hand

Never tweeted LM directly but follow lots of 'evil' TERFs and, as eny fule no, TERFs are far worse than fascists, Tories, controlling parents, murderers, black pudding, pineapple on pizza, etc. etc.

So I totally deserve it.

5 hours ago she was on about purging members who don't agree with her.

Fucking idiot this one.
And a totally bloody liability for the left.

It doesn't look great for the Labour party does it. I'm sensing a theme here...

I'm not blocked (yet) although it's a specially set up GC twitter account. Ive only retweeted stuff so far, not actually replied to anyone. Might do that later, and see what happens.

hackmum · 21/02/2018 07:59

I'm blocked! It didn't make much, tbh - I didn't even engage with LM directly, just "liked" a couple of gender-critical tweets and occasionally wrote supportive comments under other people's tweets.

failingatlife · 21/02/2018 08:09

I too am blockedGrin I follow & retweet several GC members WPUK etc . Have never interacted with LM. What's this terfblocker thingy?

sexnotgender · 21/02/2018 08:10

I’m blocked, can’t quite muster up giving a shit.

backaftera2yearbreak · 21/02/2018 08:12

I’m not on Twitter but just took a screenshot. What’s this all about?

So, hands up if you have been blocked by LM on Twitter?

I’ll give that a try...

They are creating their own echo chamber.

I wonder if they had anything to do with MN picking up on the use of pronouns.

I'm blocked - I commented on the LM post begging for clothes, said that sanpro was expensive and would LM support a period poverty campaign. Only just joined twitter to comment on all this shit - haven't really got the hang of it yet!

UpstartCrow · 21/02/2018 16:52

Juzza12 Well obviously brains have a biological sex, its only sex organs that dont.

McTufty · 21/02/2018 16:56

I’m not blocked - I must be really shit at being a gender critical feminist.

averylongtimeago · 21/02/2018 19:50

My DD was blocked with her first Twitter post, then I joined Twitter and asked if LM was going to suggest any thing to labour that would benefit all women and I was blocked.
A whole family of terfs.

cista · 21/02/2018 21:01

Ffs, LM is begging for money AGAIN! This time LM claims that PayPal have taken too much in fees and that they can't afford to eat.

Obviously, if is is true, then I have a lot of sympathy. Hopefully they can get a food bank voucher or similar.

But I must admit that I'm cynical... Hmm

TERFousBreakdown · 21/02/2018 21:10

Me too, for asking a question.

I'm also a proud member of the TerfBlocker list, a.k.a. my go-to source for whom to follow!

ALittleBitOfButter · 21/02/2018 21:13

Can anyone add to terfblocker? Someone should be norty and add some TRAs.

AdalindSchade · 21/02/2018 21:20

I'm on terfblocker and Lily blocked me before I could see his twitter. Thankfully I have a sock twitter to follow all the gendertrenders

AdalindSchade · 21/02/2018 21:21

@Juzza12 Lily wasn't living as a trans person until 2017 so definitely wasn't in a 'study of trans youth' or whatever he claims

LoveYouSo · 21/02/2018 21:53

I'm blocked by LM and TerfBlocker.
