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.

He has been called a she before at a glance when people haven't been paying attention, because he tends to have long hair and is rather soft featured. He doesn't give a shit, which must be awfully confusing for people like the OP.

AngryAttackKittens · 26/01/2019 11:58

Blancmange is evil.

Finally, a food we can agree on! What even is that stuff, and why does it exist? Is it intended to be some sort of punishment for children?

I’m a transgender woman, a mum

There is a type of autogyneohilia known as ‘interpersonal autogynephilia’ which is foundational upon being recognised as a woman. It is a subset of behavioural autogyneohilia (behaving in stereotypically feminine ways, or acting out the behaviour of women) and is all about one being recognised and treated ‘as a woman’.

I identify as having my own tropical island. Branson better offer me his if he doesn't want to be an oppressor.

nauticant · 26/01/2019 12:06

You're a fascist because I've declared you one.

Now you're a fascist you can be silenced, you can be kicked out of your job, you can be declared a criminal by the courts, and if violence is inflicted on you it's your fault and no one should help you.

What does this look like? I mean really, what would you call it?

WrathofRancidKlopp · 26/01/2019 12:06

No comments have been deleted yet?

Aren't we good?

WrathofRancidKlopp · 26/01/2019 12:10

I bloody love Mumsnet.

AspieAndProud · 26/01/2019 12:13

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

Clearly you didn’t. Why should we believe anything else you say?

AngryAttackKittens · 26/01/2019 12:14

One thing!

(Posts 8 paragraphs, then a bunch of ranty comments.)

nauticant · 26/01/2019 12:17

Ahh, I see the thread had moved on to discussion of food and drink. Probably a better use for it.

AspieAndProud · 26/01/2019 12:18

I’ve looked at the kind of person I want to be.

Am I now that person, or am I what I really am - no matter how much I insist otherwise?

CaptainKirksSpookyghost · 26/01/2019 12:19

It's doing a Columbo, 'one more thing' then a few more things on top of that.

AngryAttackKittens · 26/01/2019 12:22

People like that are the worst at house parties, just when you think they're going to leave they start babbling again and you practically have to push them out the door.

WrathofRancidKlopp · 26/01/2019 12:26

But the op declared they were only going to post once.

They have spoke.
There is no more to add.
Nothing

*What is this famous Weetabix Banana Horror, please?

Weetabix, hot milk, mashed banana. Mix.*

Hot milk

OTOH If you dished it up for me, and the hot milk was almost all soaked up and there was a puddle of brown sugar melting into it, I would bring my blanket to share and join you on the sofa in delicious MN-pariah-dom.

Come to think of it, this is a perfect allegory for the thread.

whiteroseredrose · 26/01/2019 12:30

Has the OP gone off to 'educate' oneself?

AngryAttackKittens · 26/01/2019 12:31

It's the banana that tips it over into Horror territory for me, the brown sugar I approve of.

Which is part of why I stopped eating Weetabix, any health benefits were cancelled out by their being more sugar than wheat...

SuperLoudPoppingAction · 26/01/2019 12:34

I'm away to have bananas with maple syrup in homemade yorkshires for my lunch.

SuperLoudPoppingAction · 26/01/2019 12:34

lunch/brunch
essentially first meal of the day

JellySlice · 26/01/2019 12:40

OMG SuperLoud that's a positively decadent brunch.

I've just had a fluffy, buttery, herby 3-egg omelette with fried tomatoes and a dollop of soured cream.

(I'm low carbing, so WBH is purely theoretical ATM.)

BeUpStanding · 26/01/2019 12:48

Bananas with maple syrup in yorkies?! Shock

I had a full English in a cafe and decided I want to be the sort of person who has bacon but swaps the meat sausage for a veggie one.

Here are some fine examples of TW violent tweets etc.

Maybe I will be called "transphobic" for pointing it out?
Maybe I don't give sh*t.

Bowlofbabelfish · 26/01/2019 12:50

The kind of person I want to be.

Well, you know when you watch those documentaries about awful things happening, and you say ‘why didn’t people speak out?’ And then you think about it and realise that ordinary people were probably under all sorts of pressure? Speak out, lose job, speak out, face serious social opprobrium? And you think... ‘would I actually have spoken out?’

Well I’m speaking out.

Humans can’t change sex
Gender is sex stereotypes and a damaging concept.
Women’s rights should not be subordinated to trans rights.
