Just saw this and thought some people here would be interested. It's sad news but it sounds like Magdalen is being well supported.

Wholly inadequate Flowers for Magdalen, her family and friends and a heart felt thank you for your strength, courage and hard work in highlighting the issues of trans ideology and its impact on women's rights.

MerryChristmas I am not sure exactly how old she is. Some people on twitter are saying twenties but I think she is probably in her mid to late 30s as her LinkedIn page says she was working from the early 00s. She probably looks a bit younger than she is.

Pota2 · 27/08/2019 15:09

Either way, far too young to die!

Thanks for posting that video. This is just so, so sad. She is one of a kind.

LegoToast · 27/08/2019 15:29

Out of interest, was “Magdalen” her real name?

(Please don’t post her real name if it’s not)

Oh and bozo the cyclist is now saying ‘boo boo it was a fake account - it wisnae me!’. But so many nasty pieces of shit tweeting similar sentiments in their account (with no comment from bozo). I am feeling a Pinocchio moment here.

SunsetBeetch · 27/08/2019 17:13

Seriously? The fake account excuse? Sure, Jan.

AncientLights · 27/08/2019 17:21

Forgive if already asked, but the Twitter Trans brigade keep talking about the 'harm' Magdalen has caused. Do we know what this might be? I'm guessing pronouns & general disagreement. Which, as we know, are lethal.

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD · 27/08/2019 17:22

So immature. Is it the drugs?

Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g · 27/08/2019 17:24

I'd say it's the narcissism.

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD · 27/08/2019 17:27

Such a large universe. And it’s all about them/they/who/what/when/where/wtf?/I don’t care anymore

DrLouiseMoody · 27/08/2019 17:47

Updated to include recent names.

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD · 27/08/2019 17:57

The Dr Louise, of the Twitter-net?

DrLouiseMoody · 27/08/2019 18:31

Huh? I'm THE? Well, possibly! Yes, it's me: banned loud-mouthed ginger who was LITERALLY ERASED for joking with a friend, saying I was going to LITERALLY KILL her for insulting my cooking. Twitter said I "must not make violent threats."

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD · 27/08/2019 18:34

Oh no. I’m surprised an actual death threat got a ban - up there on the crime scale with calling a spade a spade eh?

DadCanIHaveAZedgie · 27/08/2019 19:12

What an absolute shame. Such an inspirational teacher and leader. What a dreadful loss it will be. Magdalen, you are awesome.

Sympathy. I got banned for tweeting Radio 2 that if they cut Paul Kossoff's solo in All Right Now I would find them and I would kill them!

Clearly it was a joke - it's a Twitter meme fgs. That's how I'd heard of it. I've never seen the film it was taken from - taken from, geddit!!?

Anyway I appealed. Pointed out I'm a friend of Radio 2's, have guested on there, at one point talking about how great Twitter is! And the station follows me. Luckily I got reinstated but it's left me with massive anxiety over it happening again.

Basically I'm pretty sure people who don't like me on there searched my timeline for something they could report me for.

Lazyteens · 27/08/2019 21:25

Thank you Magdalen for opening my eyes with your videos. Much love to you, your family and friends x

bd67th · 28/08/2019 07:55

Magdalen, you're awesome. Watching you take down Rapey Riley was the big eye opener for me about the cotton ceiling and lesbian erasure. Riley seems so reasonable on the surface with that chatty tone, and you just cut straight through the illusion to the sexual coercion underneath

I had a lovely chat with Magdalen Berns earlier. We were putting the world to rights. She really does have an intellect and maturity beyond her years. She sends her love to all of the feminists that stand by women.

So sorry to hear this news. One of feminism's shining stars. Magdalen your witty, concise critiques of what has been wrong with the 'gender not sex' crowd have been illuminating and unmissable. Thank you, for being so courageous, so clever, so funny, for being you x

There are lots of contenders but the Julie Bindel video 'you don't know you're born' if you're scared of Jeni Murray is pure bloody class.

Socrates11 · 28/08/2019 08:13

Those drawings are superb LangCleg

I just want to repeat what GirlDownUnder said.

Some people just burn so fierce and bright we cannot be but affected.

I think MB has exploded like a firework, and now each one of us carries her ember in our hearts and minds. Forever changed.

Choking up about this today. MB, I sent you the soft wool beanie hat after your first Op, now I wish I could just buy you a pint and chew the fat with you for a short while.

Love and light, Sister.
