"Trans kids burn TERFS"

[MenstruatorExtraordinaire]

It's a terrible time to be a woman at the moment. A friend of mine just spotted a load of these posters in the centre of Manchester. It seems it's fine to incite people to commit violent actions towards women....

Wow... seriously scarey reading that thread.

I hope the police respond appropriately - will someone let us know when they do?

Do the posters have razor blades behind them.... be careful out there

Actually I did see somebody suggest that she had found a box of chocolates and a basket of kittens behind one....

Maybe the razor blades were hidden within the basket of kittens?

I mean.

It really is just burn the witch is't it.

I doubt the police will do anything. We are the wrong kind of women.

Yep. We're the kind with vulvas and vaginas, not penises, so the police will do bugger-all.

Aaaaah, but it is what the yoof say, M'Lud.

It means to admonishy harshly.

Honest

Burn the witch! Sorry terf...

Nothing has changed has it? Direct incitement to violence is fine, as long as it’s against women.

What is wrong with people? They really need to chill the fuck out.

"Protect Trans Kids" is just the most disingenuous mantra ever.

We need to protect "trans kids" from being put on medicalised pathways at the drop of hat, pathways that lead to being treated with puberty blockers, synthesized sex hormones, surgery and possibly infertility.

do you know, has anyone tweeted GMP about it?

How convenient that when the police and the CPS got together to create a definition of a hate incident, they magically forgot to include the protected characteristic of sex.

floppy the woman who had the run in with GMP the other week, @jocampbell69, is tweeting about it.

My friend reliably informed me that the word burn is underlined for special effect.

The modern way of burning women seems to be acid attacks at the moment so the mind really boggles at the thoughts of somebody who could put up a poster like this.

Even if it is only to scare women the mindset is quite something else.

What LangCleg said. Women are fully legitimate prey in the UK and it's always open season. Fucking sick of it.

Yup. Put up dictionary definitions defining women's boundaries and men line up to shout about how awful it is, the word 'hate' gets thrown around a lot and the police get involved.

Put up specific death threats to women and that's fiiiiiiiiiiiine.

Rock on whoever put this up, the more the veneer comes off the better. Let's be honest about what all this really is about.

There has been absolute radio silence from Greater Manchester Police and from Andy Burnham and from all the labour councillors who were tagged in to all the tweets.

Hmm. That twitter page doesn't exist any more because the account's vanished. Did anyone do a screen cap? I saw it earlier but didn't think to copy it.

Nothing happened. They just scared me so I changed my details. I'm still here. But have gone into lock down.

Got a couple of death threats like you do.....

Glad you're OK. Totally appalling about the death threats but unsurprised at the lack of police interest. Talk about double standards!

Can you post the picture here?

Above all, stay safe.

My phone is not allowing me to post attachments on here for some reason this evening

This is my brothers account. He's fully peaked recently.

So sorry you are at the receiving end of this. Awful and unacceptable. Take care.

What the hell? How is that remotely okay? But a woman saying "women don't have penises" is a hate crime and makes people feel unsafe?

If people can't see the misogyny and double standards it's because they don't want to see it. It could not be clearer.

It has been a scary and eye-opening experience.

Looking at the people's photos the abuse has come from they are all young men with long hair and eyeshadow egging each other on to abuse women.
