Enjoy your Erasure

Do we not sail on this ship of fools?

Dear Shon and pals,

Bless you for trying so hard to silence and erase women.

Don't you know that the best way to help an idea or movement grow, is to drive it underground?

Not that you will succeed, but please understand how counter productive your efforts to silence women are. The more you do it, the louder you shout, the more women will wake up to the hateful misogyny that is driving you, and the more women will resist.

Sorry about that! xx

They call it a "pronoun round", because you're supposed to go round in a circle with everyone saying their pronouns. "I don't care" is apparently a very offensive response.

I'm glad I don't work for the council anymore, that's the sort of time wasting bollocks they loved. I don't think I'd do well in a pronoun round.

This has really shocked me. Has the definition of comedian changed now?

I think Shon 'identifies' as a comedian.

Actually to be totally fair to Shon, some of Shon's tweets where Shon isn't banging on about TERFs and generally being a bit of a misogynist are quite funny. Shon is obviously an intelligent person, it's a shame Shon can't chanel Shon's energies in a different way.

It's been a while since I went to a team building event. Is a pronoun round the 2018 version of throwing a ball and having to say three things about yourself as a cringefest ice breaker?

Ellenripleysalienbaby · 02/05/2018 17:23

Channel not chanel!

hipsterfun · 02/05/2018 17:24

Shon, I hate to have to tell you, but I don’t agree that...

I’m Erasure?!

(I hate to mention it, but wasn't the 'enjoy your erasure' thing said by the councillor with the fancy name? Not Shon Faye (who i always think of as 'hun').
