It's quite hilarious. As if PP doesn't have a right to link to an article about the billboard she paid for being removed as a hate crime.

The poll that's mentioned in the screenshot is at that link.

Some of the comments on the article are very enlightening - the sense of entitlement is breathtaking.

Its a campaign based on hate and ignorance of a minority started by a group of sad little women, that think they have a voice.

How very very stupid of women to think they have a voice. Particularly sad little women, the absolutely worst kind.

Poll results as of a minute ago..

83% don't think the poster should be removed :)

Some of the comments are bonkers conkers.

Helen is my very favouritist. Her frothing entertains me most mornings.

Freespeecher · 20/10/2018 14:03

That won't fly in the county that rejoices in calling a spade a bastarding shovel.

Also 'people who think they have a voice???'

Give them back the spade and let them keep on digging.

Hahahahahaha. I snorted with laughter when Posie posted 'Now would I share this article?' on her FB page.

breastfeedingclownfish · 20/10/2018 14:12

Then she answered Helen

Yes Juells, that comment is going to help a few people to peak. 😁

breastfeedingclownfish · 20/10/2018 14:17

This is one of the comments on the article

"Its not the definition that's in question its the hatred of Trans women that is behind the poster and the others that have been removed.
Its a bitter and vicious campaign by a small minority of bigots and transphobes that will not accept that Trans Women are women .
Its a campaign based on hate and ignorance of a minority started by a group of sad little women, that think they have a voice."

That pretty much sums up the TRA position

LorettasBox · 20/10/2018 14:24

Again with the accusation that women are 'organising assaults on MN'.

Completely detached from reality, refusing to acknowledge actual science and fact, believing that there is a large majority who agree with them, and believing that there are threads here where women organize attacks against people.

Tellin · 20/10/2018 14:24

It's good that they're being honest for a change and letting us see their appalling misogyny. Women don't deserve voices apparently. Which is what the problem here has been all along. And then calling women transphobic for daring to resist it.

JuneOsbourne · 20/10/2018 14:25

And once again, TRA condemnation simply brings an issue to a wider audience. I probably wouldn't have noticed this article if Green hadn't tweeted it. I've now voted!

Halfeatentoast · 20/10/2018 14:27

I voted.

What they need to do is sue Google: it's their definition after all. Yes let's see them try that.

LorettasBox · 20/10/2018 14:30

It must be quite a relief for them to be honest about their contempt for women after all this time trying to dissemble.

Goodness, it seems like so many of us are under the delusion that we have a voice. This is so dangerous!

PositivelyPERF · 20/10/2018 14:31

waves to all new lurkers, that have been disappointed to find no threats on Mumsnet

AngryAttackKittens · 20/10/2018 14:35

(Says Helen, as she frantically shared the very same link with anyone she thinks might possibly vote the way she wants)

Honestly, could they be any more blatantly hypocritical?

PositivelyPERF · 20/10/2018 14:37

My goodness. So many people recognising biology. 😁

They’re doing our work for us. Carry on Grin

BlackeyedGruesome · 20/10/2018 14:41

drinking coffee and reading your post did not mix well... Grin

SuburbanRhonda · 20/10/2018 14:42

Interesting that the poll has a qualifier (absolutely) for the answer “yes” but nothing for “no”.

“No, you utter bellends” would have worked for me.

AngryAttackKittens · 20/10/2018 14:42
Halo
arranfan · 20/10/2018 14:48

Of course Posie is criticised for sharing a story about the removal.

The implied social contract expected of those who are abused is that they do not mention that they are abused in case it causes reputational damage to the abuser. Hmm
