And then they came for Gendertrender...

[NotMeOhNo]

"they" being a certain vexatious litigant one assumes. The site has been taken down. How did a paedophile get so powerful?

Gendertrender Has been taken down?
Haddock related? Or other?

Makes you wonder who exactly is pulling the strings, no?

The most recent post was on the Canadian who wants unwilling women to handle his testicles, and has the Justice System backing him to the hilt.

Genderidentitywatch is down too!

The sheer number of women who are on suspension from Twitter is remarkable:

Glinner twitter targetted:

Meghan Murphy also twitter targetted

I don't get how prostitution is allowed on Twitter. People are so open about it. And porn.

But woe betide anyone who says that masturbating penis belongs to a man. Crazy

WTF littlebrowndog? No.

No. No. No. No.

Parents and children is not the same as mothers and daughters.

They can take their guide, roll it up tight, insert it in their front hole or their back hole, and set fire to it.

Gendertrender has been hit before. They can try to shut us up but they're still a creepy creep.

Given all the recent bannings and deletions I would not be surprised if MNHQ were currently also being targetted. Let's hope that they hold strong.

Well that's just prompted me to make another donation when GenderTrender's back up and running...

We won't be quiet.

I've just seen a load of women I thought I followed and now realise are banned from twitter on that Sam Barber thread. Shocking.

I'm increasingly thinking that we need our own network that's not in the control of men/males.
More and more of us are saying things they don't like so they attempt to shut us up, close us down, prevent us speaking/being heard... We need ways of communicating with one another that are independent of systems under their control.

What's the point? Weirdos, domt they relaise they will never silence us. There are literally 1000s of places on the internet for people to congregate and be GC, not to mentuon in every pub up and down the land. Temporarily take down a couple of websites? Big. Fat. Hairy. Deal.

Entirely agree - the abuse using direct attacks, mobbing, weaponising the complaints systems, cyberstalking & harassment plus abuse by proxy using biased mods, moderation & SM platform policies, biased male-dominated law-makers & enforcers - all are complicit in silencing women - just like irl in fact.

Who managed to take Gendertrender down? Was it the brave and stunning transwoman who wanted to sue people for not waxing her testicles (and also wanted to teach a 10-year-old girl how to insert a tampon in a bathroom stall) ?

The rediculousness of saying that calling people "menstruators" is NOT "reducing people to their body parts" will never fail to astound me. That's exactly what it IS doing! How can this 'logic' fly? Oh is it because it's actually reducing women to their body parts... so not real people, just boring women?

Jesus wept.

Gendertrender was one of the earliest online voices to explain all of this to me in ways that made sense. She was doing actual, proper investigative journalism at a time when none of the mainstream press would touch any of this. As was Meghan M.

That's heartbreaking. And so sinister when you see it all collated together in that Sam Barber thread (as an aside, Sam Barber? That's quite a random source of such a powerful thread, though to be fair I've only ever heard of him in a musical context, so for all I know he's a lifelong firebrand for feminism and I've just been oblivious).

These sites taken down are both run on Wordpress.com which is owned by a US company, maybe they need to look at setting up with a different company, although equally, maybe it wouldn’t make any difference.

There will be a day when GallusMag of Gendertrender is recognised for her work as an investigative journalist and as an important figure in the women's liberation movement.

Sam Barber will be issuing an updated thread as lots of offers of screenshots of deletion notice have been made.

I'm beginning to feel we could mulch the social network of Twitter with the deleted accounts of nuanced, informed opinion on some issues - it seems to consider it the "natural manure" (to mis-use Jefferson). It is serving as a suppressant for natural and free exchange of ideas and conversation.

numberseven - I believe so. So big US companies are backing a paedophile to silence their women critics

I think we need entire lives that are not under male control. But this would be a start.

That is absolutely chilling 😮
