I met him in real life about eight years ago
He was intelligent and happy to have open debate on many topics
I have no idea how he turned into this Confused

Bejazzled · 08/03/2018 23:35

Yep. Owen is Labour gentry and a happy beneficiary of social closure - going straight from uni into a union job and then to a parliamentary job. He only ever used "the poor" as a badge for his own career ambitions

Worst type of socialist.

That was enjoyable Grin

His mum has just tweeted JB to say that she is very proud of him.

This is getting weird.

Gacapa · 08/03/2018 23:47

Oh God he's getting his mum to come and tell off the big girl who did it then ran away.

The cringe.

Terftastic · 08/03/2018 23:50

OMG, getting mumsy to tweet for him is definitely weird.

If that was my son, I'd be like, deal with it yourself darling!! In fact I tell my children - ie minors - that now about squabbles with classmates. Mummy wading in to silly arguments does nobody any good (how old is he??)

He is an absolute tantrumming child! My DD is more mature than him and she's 10. My teenage boys are way more than him - aeons ahead of him in maturity.

LinesInTheSand · 08/03/2018 23:50

Oh jesus that's grim-cringe

Xenophile · 08/03/2018 23:54

"Mummy, can I have the password to your Twitter, please? A scary lesbian was mean to me and I want her to know that you love your little boy"

However now, thanks to DrCunty, this is all done in a sanctimonious Morph voice.

I think they really have got themselves in a muddle - the minority he supports are born male so it is the male community that should be looking at how to make trans feel safe in their male environments.

Instead they react like Matthew Hopkins (Witchfinder General ) believing in magic and trickery " these men have magically transformed into the female sex by moving their outer furniture around" .

OJ says in Sheffield accent: nowt to do with us men now - you women deal with 'em. That's magic for you, down with your science.

Men then don't have to question or reflect on anything it may say about them that they are so willing to accept there is more to being female than what they tell us there is.

My teenage boys are way more than him - aeons ahead of him in maturity

My teenager would be mortified if I did that. But then again, he's quite good at debating and fighting his corner - unlike wee 'babba own own'

TheButterflyOfTheStorms · 09/03/2018 00:12

He's an odd little chap. I always imagine him being about six inches high and made of plasticine, like an aggressively sanctimonious Morph.

I actually snorted. Which is impossible as we all know women in general and feminists in particular aren't funny. I must be delusional.

aggressively sanctimonious Morph

AngryAttackKittens · 09/03/2018 00:23

"The only nice woman of the non penis having variety in the world is my mummy and she loves me very much!", says petulant manchild.

Terftastic · 09/03/2018 00:27

This - tweet of his - is just beyond the pale. Gloating. And blaming women for standing up for women's rights. Who is he?

(Just added that last one because I love a bit of Blackadder - anyway - seems Graham Lineham's on our side, I'm sure many more are too)

terfsRus · 09/03/2018 00:30

I used to like him. Then he started going on about punching alt-righters and I thought 'this won't end well'. He's moved on to terfs/women now. Wonder who's next.

RedToothBrush · 09/03/2018 00:31

*imagining mr1984 vanity searching and seeing the morph comment....

AngryAttackKittens · 09/03/2018 00:35

Must be hard work typing so much with those squishy little plasticine hands.

TolchockLovelyInTheLitso · 09/03/2018 00:42

Even 6 months later this photo and the various captions on it at the time make me laugh. goo.gl/images/HZ5wyY

ExFunFeminist · 09/03/2018 00:56

That caption is funny, but I clicked on the Anorak link, WTF did I just witness! He's behaving like Special Officer Doofy.

SeniorRita · 09/03/2018 01:03

OMG he's blocked me! I've only ever replied to him once. That was to his tweet that said Labour had pushed the trans agenda because of the opposition to it. I said "Bollocks. Lady bollocks if you prefer" and he's blocked me. What a knob.

womanformallyknownaswoman · 09/03/2018 02:18

I just found out he has blocked me and I have never interacted with him - nice to know journalists are open to differing opinions….He's gone way below negative in my opinion of him (wasn't high before)- one expects a bit more of journalists - an engagement if they don't agree - it's very telling ….

Oh I recall - I tagged him yesterday, as a male researcher, who is a real women's advocate, retweeted his guardian article and I replied and tagged OJ and said he's no friend of women - so he must have blocked me.

wonder if he silences anyone else irl rather than engaging when they object to his words...

He's happy to flash his gay card when it comes to supporting people with penii but he can't bring himself to listen to lesbians. Just wants to attack them.

QueenOfTheAndals · 09/03/2018 07:42

That interview with Alastair C is embarrassing. Not sure if it's meant to be a pisstake or not but OJ's smug face when he says "like Iraq?" makes me want to slap him.

QueenOfTheAndals · 09/03/2018 07:43

Also, look at everything he says about trans women being oppressed. It can easily be applied to actual women but Owen is either too thick or too disingenuous to see that.
