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.

Personally I draw the line at joining with those feminists who think that the boak-inducing Notorious WBH is a suitable breakfast food.

Flo the frivolous.
Yeah that's me. If I ever get round to changing my user name it'll be that.

I declare I have no Camp coffee in my cupboard.
I might have to get some now

It fucks me off immensely that I keep being distracted from style and beauty by having to stick up for my rights.

I need to go and check if I look expensive in my AHF t-shirt if I team it with skinny jeans, tan boots a navy gilet and keep on top of my manicure and highlights.

Skyzalimit · 27/01/2019 14:23

FlyingOink

that's not a list of common enemies. It's a list of things we don't agree on- including trans people. I support trans people.

Skyzalimit · 27/01/2019 14:27

It's just so cavalier

ClocheEncounter · 27/01/2019 14:27

Shush Repeal, I absolutely ADORED the expensive threads.

I mean, I also don’t wear makeup so the look is probably lost to me, but I do love a good discussion of a nice winter coat. And a cashmere jumper, even if I do buy mine secondhand.

TinselAngel · 27/01/2019 14:27

Does anyone else remember Mr Frosty's friend, Mr Fruity? It was also shit.

Bubonicpanic · 27/01/2019 14:29

It's a huge concern.

Its a huge concern to you that women of all political persuasions fundamentally object to the abuses of genderism? It's a huge concern that women with different opinions work together?

How do you manage to go to work? Do you interview every colleague and co-worker before you agree to deal with them to check they have acceptable opinions? Are you incapable of working with anyone without the exact same opinions as you? You sound like someone I would avoid hiring, a bit difficult frankly.

WrathofRancidKlopp · 27/01/2019 14:30

Mr Fruity?
Ooer, it wouldn't be allowed these days.

ChewyLouie · 27/01/2019 14:34

Dividing feminists? Do they take a feminist and put her in a machine so four tiny feminists pop out? I’m impressed.
All this talk of toys, never got a girls world or one of those family treehouses so its really good to hear Mr Frosty was actually crap. We made do with 2p ice lollies or a 5p cup if feeling extravagant!

terryleather · 27/01/2019 14:34

Lang The fact that you revealed the existence of Branston Pickle Mini Cheddars means that I will grudgingly reach my hand across the snack aisle.

Hurrah for Love! of cheesy pickley snack items

TinselAngel · 27/01/2019 14:34

Mr Fruity

Stardustinmyeyes · 27/01/2019 14:35

I really think you are pretty stupid to casually lump Trans people into a list of common enemies. Hoping for some good screen shots were you?
Trans people are not my enemy.
Coriander is my enemy though

GeorgeFayne · 27/01/2019 14:35

Just caught up on this thread. Brilliant! Well done, my friends. You've managed to debunk, entertain, enlighten, and most importantly, ENCOURAGE here.

Yes, the fact that women can unite over our most pressing and harmful threat shouldn't surprise anyone. We're women, after all. We have spent our lives always on guard and always defending the weak. We'll do it again.

Shock Where is that juice coming from?

Re Mr Fruity and juice.
I've seen it now and I can't unsee it

terryleather · 27/01/2019 14:39

I never had a Mr.Frosty either as my mum thought it looked like "a load of old rubbish"...seems she was right.

I miss old school ice lollies, I seem to remember there was a shandy?! flavour one I was extremely fond of...booze for weans!

WrathofRancidKlopp · 27/01/2019 14:40

Mr Fruity, that one passed me by.
Wouldn't surprise me if it was reintroduced as a toy for healthy eating.

Freespeecher · 27/01/2019 14:41

Sounds like I had a narrow escape - had I received a Mr Frosty I might as well have drawn a moustache on him as he sat there dispensing his icy chunks of hate.

Or something.

CaptainKirksSpookyghost · 27/01/2019 14:41

Mr Fruity juice machine
The best juice you've ever seen
Pop a cup between his legs
Press his.....

Yeah I can see why there was no advert.

WrathofRancidKlopp · 27/01/2019 14:42

Where is that juice coming from?
His front hole.

TinselAngel · 27/01/2019 14:42

My friend had Mr Fruity. He was basically just a squash dispenser IIRC.
