A twitter account is saying that stickers in Manchester Oxford Road station have razor blades behind them put there by TERFS. If you are terfblocked you won't be able to view.

Not just machetes, I heard there were lightsabres stuck behind some of them. Ewan McGregor was on hand to teach how to use them.

The other one was too busy typing and eating to take photos of their bludgeoned digits.

I know when I get a paper cut, typing and eating is first thing I do.

Behind each sticker is a carefully concealed radicalisation portal. Remove but two millimetres and you are sucked into simultaneous irrelevance and given the Machiavellian skills to rule the world like a Bond villain.

Stickers are damned sophisticated these days.

I was in a forum where we literally predicted TRAs would do this. So I'll believe it when they prove it happened and that it was done by GC people.

I support a prosecution of anyone who does this. And encourage anyone hurt to report to the police.

The police are currently all at a&e and unable to do paperwork so cannot report back on progress on twitter.

In less enlightened and technologically advanced cities, there are rumours of crossbows. Of course, it involves a intricate 'ship in a bottle' degree of skill to conceal the crossbow behind the sticker but that's where all the years of hate-group stitch and bitch lace-making and knitting prove to be so helpful.

404 is a mass of misinformation (as well as way too interested in razor blades).

The stickers were seen in Manchester, UK.
Someone tagged BTP MCR (British Transport Police, not GMP) who said they would pop down and have a look.
Various feminists said ‘please do’ and tagged in the Manchester Evening News.

Another poster claims to have been injured by razors behind (banned acronym) stickers, but lives almost 4,000 miles away.

I will believe this when I see the police confirm it and someone is convicted. Such serious crimes must surely result in further investigation. Presumably all physical evidence has been handed over to the police?

what a load of utter shite

Thanks NameChange and HerFemaleness. wow cross continental spontaneous rad fem razor stickage. It must be like the time fire was discovered practically simultaneously in Europe and Asia. Or the way certain species evolve in exactly the same ways despite living on different land masses. Spooky.

404 OK - they replied to a the tweet (hence why I missed it - I'm not avidly clicking on all the batshit links you keep posting). And if i understand twitter correctly, it was B list at capital that tagged the police (so in essence made the report) not Erin the broccoli girl. or our other alleged victim (who it turns out is in North Carolina?).

It's not exactly the same as ringing them up and filing a report, is it?

'CCTV will be checked' - does not mean 'we have cctv footage'. It means - the train station will have cctv (of the concourse and platforms) and maybe someone will pretend to watch it. And there was no mention of the all important 'and stuff.'

Manchester police get tagged in a tweet. Manchester police tweet out short statement saying 'we'll look into it.'
I really wouldn't read that much into that. But Erin the broccoli girl did not got to the police of their own volition. It was a third party twitter tag.

Some particularly skilled GC deep cover agents have concealed a large catapult behind each sticker.

So, we were all in hate school for 'how to build inter-continental radicalisation portals/wormholes' and facilitate morphic resonance but missed the Organisation 101 classes? Figures.

Okay.... Quick question, playing devils advocate, and just speculating.
How long does it take to try to peel down an offensive sticker, get cut, have to deal with the clean up, presumably alert station staff, probably take pictures of the terrible evidence, etc?
Would you tweet something that sounds lighthearted in the middle of it?
Because checking the timeline, there appears to be a tweet where Erin seems to be fine/joking and then 5 minutes later tweets the first razor blade allegation. We then view the first photo about 6 hours or so after the event, of a left hand that thankfully appears okay.
I also note that Erin is an "anarchist" in their Twitter bio.
I don't want to minimize anything or say nothing went down.
Maybe everything happened very quickly/Erin is skilled at multitasking so decided to engage with Twitter during this terrible event but not post photos?
But this 5 minute gap between two very tonally different tweets... I find it interesting.
In any case, I hope the police investigate and get to the bottom of it. I am glad that photo does not appear to show grave injury.
Anyone who puts razor blades behind stickers to hurt the public deserves to be prosecuted.

We all seemed to miss several classes Sad

-Punching people who disagree with us
-Wearing all black, masking up, and hanging around outside courtrooms with dogs.
-Wearing black, masking up, blocking women entry to public venues
-Calling women cunts on social media and Bristol stairwells

Just amateurs really, eh?
