Courting the far right is wrong....

...if you follow that with a ‘but’ to justify Posie Parker’s courting of the far right, then you are a fascist.

I said I would only post one thing on this board. I kept that promise.

But this is the pits right here. Posie Parker is seeking funding and making deals with white supremacist, crypto fascists, misogynists, homophobes and racists. How does this not show you what your movement is and has always been?

You need to look at yourselves. If your response is anything other than total rejection of posie Parker and all the groups she is involving herself with, then you are just as bad. If you think that trans people/‘trans activists’ are worse than Tommy Robinson, ultra trump supporters and others who spew far right views then you are a racist, sexist, homophobic nightmare. Those labels equally describe what a person is as well as what a person does.

“But what about TRA’s?” Some of you will want to scream at me.

You don’t see Paris Lees going off to get funding from literal fascists. Hell, Caitlin Jenner votes for trump and the global trans community has never and will never forgive her. And either way, none of what “they” do will magically make it okay to go suck up to people that think gay people should be sterilised or that Muslim’s are evil.

Transphobia is revolting. It’s wrong, and it comes as no surprise to hear that transphobia (which most of you peddle right here) will eventually push people towards other kinds of hate.

Take a long hard look at yourselves. I’m a transgender woman, a mum, and I hope at least some of you are seriously thinking about what kind of person you want to be.

Did you expect the thread to end because you said you were going?

Earlywalker · 27/01/2019 11:28

I mean continued talking to me obviously.

AngryAttackKittens · 27/01/2019 11:29

If you believe that was obvious then I'm just going to gently point out that this is why SPAG is important.

WeRiseUp · 27/01/2019 11:30

Wait, was the thread supposed to stop when Early left?

As weird and self important as that may seem, I think that's the gist.

CaptainKirksSpookyghost · 27/01/2019 11:31

If there is one thing Mumsnet hate, it's more members and more advertising revenue from page clicks. I bet thet hate people coming to this site worldwide, getting people interested in threads, then reading them.

AngryAttackKittens · 27/01/2019 11:33

Indeed, the entire concept of clickbait is based on people who run websites not wanting anyone to visit them.

FlyingOink · 27/01/2019 11:34

For people who’s whole point is free speach and everyone having a voice, you sure don’t like people actively doing it.
Nobody's stopped you going on, have they? Crack on, love. We just don't agree with you, that's all.

CaptainKirksSpookyghost · 27/01/2019 11:35

On an unrelated note, the Camp coffee people have been in touch, they love my product placement and want to send me a life time supply, one bottle.

AngryAttackKittens · 27/01/2019 11:35

Actually I'd highly encourage Early to continue, since I think this thread has been educational reading for many people.

AngryAttackKittens · 27/01/2019 11:36

So Camp coffee is the dwarf bread of...I was going to say beverages but maybe "liquids" would be better.

FlyingOink · 27/01/2019 11:39

if feminists don’t join together to condem these sort of people - who will?
Demanding emotional and intellectual labour from women.

I think the oppression of woman should always be at the forefront of feminism
You think x is more important than y. That is your opinion. Several hundred posts have explained that x is important but we're working on y. You continue to state your opinion.
Can you see how your opinion, which has been acknowledged and addressed, is now a bit boring and repetitive?

CaptainKirksSpookyghost · 27/01/2019 11:40

I don't know, Camp Coffee tends to be more readily available than glod.

FlyingOink · 27/01/2019 11:41

I've never been able to lay my hands on glod.

Knicknackpaddyflak · 27/01/2019 11:41

what will be screenshotted from here will be nothing more shocking than women saying no. Get over yourselves.

OldCrone · 27/01/2019 11:43

Are you still here, Earlywalker. I said yesterday you never answered my questions, and you still haven't answered this one today.

What do you mean by anti-woman, Earlywalker? Who are you referring to here?

I want to know who you were calling anti woman. Who are these people?

CaptainKirksSpookyghost · 27/01/2019 11:43

I've never been able to lay my hands on glod.

He's Fast isn't he.

Again. For the millionth time. You have a voice. We just don’t agree with what you’re saying. The only thing we’ve said is, you keep repeating exactly the same stuff. Which is boring and silly. And irritating when we’ve moved on.

So what if people are still replying to your points? If you want to leave, leave. If you want to stay, stay. It would be marvellous if you stopped repeating yourself however.

I don't read the books so I'll take your word for it.

AngryAttackKittens · 27/01/2019 11:45

Sneaky little bugger, that Glod.

If you sit on a bottle of Camp Coffee are you then queen of the Mumsnettians? Since apparently we're required to have one.

Knicknackpaddyflak · 27/01/2019 11:45

there is no place in feminism for people who think [X]

Yeah, earlier you posted about people thinking [X] shouldn't have a voice either.

There's your problem right there.

Knicknackpaddyflak · 27/01/2019 11:47

I don't believe in Queens. I demand an Elf Lord. I nominate Datun.

FlyingOink · 27/01/2019 11:47

If you sit on a bottle of Camp Coffee
Sounds dangerous

I feel the need to buy some though. Is this viral marketing at work?

CaptainKirksSpookyghost · 27/01/2019 11:49

I wouldn't be Queen of anything, I could sit under the mon-arch though, or walk through it.

CaptainKirksSpookyghost · 27/01/2019 11:51

If antibiotics work, then it's more bacterial marketing.

AngryAttackKittens · 27/01/2019 11:52

Datun is our Galadriel, it's true. We can find her a wig if needed.
