McKinnon targeting Kelly Holmes

[Sexnotgender]

McKinnon is going after Kelly Holmes now and has tweeted @iamspecialized who Kelly has a sponsorship deal with

That's Americans for you though. They always have to do bigger and better than the Brits.

McKinnon is Canadian.

"Can anyone here actually see the tweets to Specialized, given that 95% of the population are blocked?"

I am in the process of looking, but McKinnon has been splerging non stop over the past few hours.
Apparently they were on R4 today, this is what the presenter had to say on twitter.

One for the Sunday Times maybe...

Martina writes for them and gets huge push back.

Sharron, Kelly etc put their heads above the parapet and get abuse, and doxxing to their sponsors.

Silencing of women.

"Excellent interview with @rachelvmckinnon on R4 Today. She presents a calm and articulate explanation on the reality of Trans* athletes. A stark comparison to the transphobia, misinformation, and hate that otherwise "respectable" athletes are so willing to spout in the media".

What? That was the presenter of the show? Jesus.

Accusing Sharron Davies, Kelly Holmes and Paula Radcliffe of hate?

Crickets and tumbleweed in response to the presenters tweet though.

Must be a fake account, surely?

Apparently they were on R4 today, this is what the presenter had to say on twitter

Emily Rowan is not a presenter on R4. RMK was interviewed by Martha Kearney, who has made no comment on the interview.

Please, people, check your facts. Confirmation bias isn't helpful to anyone's cause.

Another one here who loves her Liv bike. Can fully recommend. I do have a Specialized as well but I think my Liv is the better bike.

Rowan has a massive 87 followers.

Please, people, check your facts.

I agree. In the same spirit, doxxing to their sponsors above set my teeth on edge because it misuses the word doxx.

As an example of the need for accuracy, apparently Sharron Davies misspoke on Today and referred to women as YY. There was considerable crowing over that on twitter in an attempt to discredit all the sensible stuff she said.

nauticant, what word do you want used...

You're welcome to use any accurate word.

And their email again for anyone else who wants to email as well

Ah, so no the presenter then.

Should have said not the presenter.

"Can anyone here actually see the tweets to Specialized, given that 95% of the population are blocked?"

I followed the link posted by Popchyk 10:24, if you click on their Tweeted you can see all the replies. The replies are awesome.

020 8391 3500 this is Thier customer care number - I rang and frankly ranted - my 14 year old is a very keen cyclist and even getting recognition at local level compared to the boys club us difficult.

Kelly Holmes is a wonderful woman, an incredible athlete and a fantastic role model

McKinnon is none of those things

Doubt they have a particularly large social media team so to avoid any selective reporting of today's online sentiment it might be worth just going directly to the company itself with comments.

Just re being blocked on Twitter

Perhaps I’m doing something wrong/different, but if I use the web interface to Twitter (which I’ve never used, so there are no cached credentials) then I get asked to login, but I dismiss this then I think I can see everything , (and I don’t see how I could be blocked as I guess I’m using an anonymous access )

DpWM no, RMcK's tweets to Specialized, not the replies to their tweet.

Yes, you can see most of Twit if you are not logged into it, and it cannot see you.

I guess this explains the tweet from iamspecialized. Looks like someone very woke runs their SM

Intersectional feminist - ah yes, you’re right.

Explains why they responded so quickly and woke-ly Glad they’re getting slaughtered on Twitter. As a PP said, the correct response would have been “Thanks, we’ll look into it”, not that knee-jerk, cowardly, pacifying nonsense.
