Bunbury’s Public Service Announcement 2

[arranbubonicplague]

The useful Bunbury Guide to Spotting Community Disruptors is constantly evolving.

The best research and advice is not to engage with community disruptors and trolls. As ever, if you suspect troll activity, report it to MNHQ.

This is a continuation of the first Public Service Announcement thread:

www.mumsnet.com/Talk/womens_rights/3321127-public-service-announcement

If and when you see threads plopped into FWR, especially a curious repeat of well worn topics, maybe check for poster history before engaging.

There are a number of posts/posters/threads that are reproduced on Twitter or Facebook to foment controversy using screen shots & flagging to either MNHQ to have threads or posters deleted. Sometimes, it’s used to approach commissioning editors with ideas for articles. It’s a tiresome tactic that we’ve had several community disruptor posters who themselves post the comments that they then highlight elsewhere as purported evidence of racism, religious intolerance, anti-men sentiments, or transphobia.

Some helpful links in following posts.

A timely reminder to be wary of wolves in sheeps clothing - despite whichever t-shirt they are wearing.

Bumpety bump

Heresy where are recipes being shared today?

No recipes. So far only a minor derailer. Just thought I'd dust off this thread as a PSA.

A timely reminder to be wary of wolves in sheeps clothing - despite whichever t-shirt they are wearing.

always good advice.

Have we had an ingenue 'I just don't know what to think' poster amongst us?

Bump. Roses are red. Violets are blue.

It's gone. I was just beginning the second round of Kumbaya. And I didn't bloody save the excellent meme on it. Poo.

MNHQ on fire this evening

I couldn't get 'If youre happy & you know it clap your hands' out of my head.

Must be all the discussions about Accenture....

Looks out of window to see if it is a full moon.

What did I miss?!

Purple Haze!

Just for CaptainMarvelBunting

(unless there was some other excellent meme in which case I just look like a massive arse )

BadPenny, you are no arse. That is a most stupendous meme which I will be printing out and putting on the fridge.

BadPenny that is a bloody brilliant meme! I am also stealing it

I wish I could claim credit for it! I've been looking for a large printable version but there isn't one, so I'm working on creating one.

A busy day or two for Bunbury. She'll be well behind with her baking now.

I'm going to totally fuck up my feminist credentials here, but I'm in danger of believing in gender-posting.

How so?

There have long being recognised differences in male/female discourse & use of language. Especially evident in conversation eg turn taking, phrasing etc.

I suspect that G Bunbury has written something but likely pre 1990 work

(apologies if Ive misunderstood)

No, I don't think you have Ro

I was just pondering the irony of GNC feminists spotting male-patterned posting so easily. But then we've had a lifetime of practice.

I think that a platform like MN is the closest representation to 'conversation' so patterns may be seen.
I also suspect with it being a predominantly female space, this also may highlight possible sex-based differences

Bunbury might be unsure about what to make of threads soliciting tactics for disrupting fundraising by TRA charities.

Bunbury might worry that enthusiastic posts of how best to disrupt might end up on social media.

Bunbury might be wrong, but sometimes Bunbury applies an abundance of caution.

Banbury is having quite a day.
