Inspired by recent events such as a projection on a government building saying "Repeat after me" with brainwashing mantras which have left me open mouthed with incredulity thinking "is someone taking the piss?" I thought it would be fun (although perhaps a little disturbing) to have a thread for some of the best Monty Python moments in recent times.

My favourite (can you call it that?) was the inquisition of the mighty Venice Allen on charges of transphobia by the Labour Party, I remember reading the transcript of the meeting and laughing out loud at the brilliant comedic script writing, then coming to my senses and thinking. "Holy mackerel, this is actually real."

This Orwellian projection seems like someone is taking the piss out of the brainwashing authoritarians.

The judge in the Maria MacLachlan case criticising her for not using the preferred pronoun, then Tara Wolf's own barrister I believe or the judge then not using it themselves. Not Python, but definitely a Fawlty Towers 'don't mention the war!' one I think!

Pride, Pink News and 30,000 people lose their shit when 8 women with a banner saying "Lesbian = Female Homosexual" attend the Pride march to protest against lesbian erasure and for homosexual rights to have a distinct sexuality and same sex orientation to exclude the opposite sex. Confused

Sorry Maria Mac that this article is biased towards the defendant, but it does make comedic reading when looked at in a certain way.

This letter Paul Embery got from Labour NEC LGBT for signing the Morning Star letter calling for civil non threatening debate. Could be from Brazil maybe?

When a diversity consultant (Tara Hewitt) tells a room of largely women that men who like dressing in women's underwear should be treated as women by the NHS. Is this Benny Hill or something?

Plus Tara Wolf stating in the Maria Mac they feared being outed while simultaneously having a crowd funder for voice box surgery Confused

Yes LittleLebowski the whole trial sounded like a farce. Are there any links to the highlights you know about?

I loved the fact that Wolf's supporters with masks and bull terriers called the police on the benign-looking women supporting Maria because they were going to be at the same pub. Confused

www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5607919/Transgender-activist-battered-radical-feminist-Speakers-Corner-brawl.html has a lot of the detail. The crowd funder archived page is archive.is/lhMaC here. I also remember the photos of the masked activists alongside the evil exclusionary rad fem Maria supporters!

The headline read: "Transgender woman says she is happy she kept her penis because she enjoys sex with a woman more".

www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/transgender-woman-says-shes-happy-12245857

The subject explains that they have 'come out' three times - once as a gay man, once as a heterosexual transwoman and now as a lesbian.

The accompanying photos don't show an autogynophiliac or a transvestite.

Sorry - yes they do.

In between the despairing for females, there really are some comedic moments.

Are animals feminists? The Labour party witch finder general misgendering Izzard themselves!

Ha ha. Does anyone remember the NUS conference when the cheeky little shits discriminated against women by making the women's toilets inclusive but not the mens by sticking a piece of paper over the sign?

They barred even women from entering in protest when they were told to take the sign down because they weren't the only group using the building (or the toilets).

Members of Class War calling the police because feminists were in the pub

When members of the Labour LGBT group posed for a photo (to go with the Tweet about AWS being open to people who aren't women) and there wasn't a woman in it.

Yees I remember - was the picture taken somewhere in parliament?
