Greater Manchester Police claim “terf is not a slur”

[SlipperyLizard]

Unfortunately the tweet has now been deleted so you can’t see how royally Liam was getting his arse handed to him on Twitter, but here’s the original tweet in case your blood pressure isn’t high enough already today.

So we can describe some individuals i can think of in very specific terms, and that would be ok?

How about CBBTW, (insert name of your choice)?

The police are covering themselves in shit glory these days, aren't they?

Idiots.

I bet they also think that saying a woman is an adult human female is a hate crime/incident.

‘Horrific attacks’ against trans people in the uk? Where is the evidence of this?

Well that makes me really confident in Manchester policing attitudes

It's even used against trans people who disagree in any way with the insane TRAs

It's totally a slur

A word is a slur if the recipient thinks it is a slur unless the recipient is a woman, in which case their feelings, experience and opinion are of no consequence.

It's even used against trans people who disagree in any way with the insane TRAs

Yep

It's even used against trans people who disagree in any way with the insane TRAs. It's totally a slur

YES.

Liam is acting like a bit of a twat.
‘Hopefully you can gain insight into Trans Rights’
Patronising much?

Did anyone get a screenshot of the one referring to 'cis women'?

And would they say that TERFs are the ones carrying out these horrific attacks?

I looked at the twitter of his supporter that he was replying to there. . Not nice.

ClosdesMouches, here you go.

I think Liam might be in a spot of bother right about now.

Maybe all the examples I sent of TRA threats where the word Terf was used, sent the lovely Liam over the edge?

How come TERF is 'just a description' but saying 'woman = adult human female' is hate speech?

Thanks Floral , there was another one too, where Liam referred to 'cis women'.

Can we report Liam for hate speech?

Exactly, Beer.

All been completely deleted. Oh dear...

What Beer said!

It's in line with all that 'educate yourself' stuff that's always being spouted at women.

It's really wanky that the official twitter accounts of bodies like the police can just delete tweets - and all the responses disappear. "Nothing to see here any more".

Alas for GMP, Juells, people have screenshots. It will never go away. I hope they get held to account.

I'm intrigued at what sort of police officer wants to end up running a twitter account. Why would you sign up for something as mindless as that?
