Goldsmiths LGBT society says feminists should be sent to a gulag.

Goldsmiths, home of witch hunting transwoman Natasha Kennedy needs to sort itself out.

Last night they started harassing a load of 'T*rfs' on Twitter and then today they suggested they might like to spend some time in a gulag - before going on to write a rather long, propaganda piece in their defense.

I didn't think leftists like this actually existed.

Is this a real account?

As someone just pointed out in the other thread if it's TERFs only then it will at least be a female only space.

It's basically the new Michfest.

That’s proper gallows humour, but funnier for it.

Ooh, a nice cosy gulag where feminists get caringly re-educated while making music and getting paid a fair wage for their labour Smile

WTAF?

That account has always been batshit. They blocked a bunch of people a good while back after they tweeted out criticism about Mariam Namazie's talk that was interrupted by a group of really horrible young Muslim men who threatened violence. Goldsmith's LBGTQ+ account felt that it was Namazie who was in the wrong, and were very open about it. What they're doing now is unsurprising.

Well said fermats

new mitchfest proper lol

Will it be like a spa day ?

That made me snort! Grin

FermatsTheorem · 10/09/2018 23:01

BTW has anyone screenshotted the thread? Because I'd put good money on it going pfft. There are now hundreds of replies, all, without exception, pointing out their monstrous idiocy. They're not going to leave this one up for the world to see.

DieAntword · 10/09/2018 23:02

Someone should explain to them that real “anti-revisionists” would undoubtedly see their pet issues as capitalist decadence.

What skills do we have to turn the Gulag into a feminist republic?

I can knit, crochet, make soap, perform basic mechanics and I have an old fashioned medical degree from the days when science was still relevant.

Can anyone can food, write policy or do shorthand?

Amortentia · 10/09/2018 23:03

I just knew there would be a post about this!

They must have been hacked, surely the uni would have intervened by now and shut them down.

The weird blog they’ve cited, I’ve see that before. I’m absolutely positive that someone linked to it on mumsnet years ago but I can’t remember why.

ChiaraRimini · 10/09/2018 23:04

I'm so glad I don't work for Goldsmiths, especially their comms department. Student "japes" cause problems for all universities but this is pretty embarrassing by anyone's standards. PMSL though.

TigerDrankAllTheWaterInTheTap · 10/09/2018 23:05

The good thing here is that the gulag thread has been very widely retweeted and a lot of people who normally look the other way when TRAs and GC people argue are laying into that account and Goldsmiths generally. Might give a few people pause.

ErrolTheDragon · 10/09/2018 23:06

Science must be decolonised and de-essentialised in order for this to happen

WTF is that supposed to mean? Confused

FadeCascade · 10/09/2018 23:07

Have we reached Peak Goldsmiths??

Aurellia · 10/09/2018 23:08

Is the university aware of this account and what it posts??

ContessasGulagSpaDay · 10/09/2018 23:09

Hello all

I demand that you all call me stunning and brave please.

I think it might be a very useful hoax.

I've got no skills really.; used to work on a farm though. But love the idea.Smile

“Am I being unreasonable to think feminists shouldn’t be threatened with being sent to gulags for thinking rapists shouldn’t be allowed in women’s prisons?”

It usually means "transwomen are women" - and anyone who says otherwise is off to gulag.

I can organise the toilets if thats any use? And I also know how to turn the waste into compost with very little effort.

NotTerfNorCis · 10/09/2018 23:17

Can't help thinking that the 'feminists' at Goldsmiths are just looking for new and fresh ways to outrage the rest of us. They've got some way to go before they can top what they did to Maryam Namazie...

FermatsTheorem · 10/09/2018 23:23

Holy crap NotTerf - I hadn't seen that report before. The "feminist" society siding with Islamist hecklers trying to shout down a speech by a British-Iranian woman talking about why she left Islam.
