Madeleine Kearns with a very brief, beautiful tribute in the National Review (of all places):

'You were the voice for many who had none.'

More and more women are finding their voices thanks to you. Thanks

How incredibly sad.

RIP

RoxytheRexy · 14/09/2019 07:08

This is such sad news. She was a strong courageous women and it seems very unfair her life was cut so short. Huge love to her family and friends.

I remember watching her videos ironing and laughing out loud

Be More Magdalen.

Bern Bright.

I'll never forget you Magdalen. You have inspired me to be braver and more outspoken. I continue to fight because of you. Rest in power, you wonderful woman.

I have just watched her video about Alex Drummond and have been laughing out loud.

Alex: the thought of surgery terrifies me.

Magdalen: of course it terrifies you Alex, they chop your cock off.

She gave no fucks.

I can't believe she has gone actually.

The Alex Drummond video is so funny - probably one of my favourites

queering gender

The Ash Harrell one is my favourite, because it very clearly demonstrates the ‘AFAB Non-Binary’ identity is just a 20teens take on the age-old ‘I’m not like other girls’ trope.

We are all unique, yet we are all the same. Biology, innit?
Get over it.

What a woman! And what a terrible loss to her family and friends and to all of us.

MonsteraCheeseplant · 14/09/2019 16:16

Jesus Christ DuMondeB, that Ash just comes across as a child.

MonsteraCheeseplant · 14/09/2019 16:25

Sorry, don't want to de-rail. Back on topic.

I wonder if anyone will do an obituary for Magdalen?

Mner2019 · 14/09/2019 17:15

Condolences to her friends and family. To have lost such an amazing woman so young must be horrendously heart wrenching.

I will be more Madeleine.

deepwatersolo · 14/09/2019 18:14

My sincere condolences to Magdalen's family and loved ones. She will be missed, and not only by the ones who knew her personally.

snowbear66 · 14/09/2019 19:36

Loved your videos Magdalen,

You will be missed.

BabyItsAWildWorld · 14/09/2019 20:01

She was pivotal for me in understanding what is going on.
So clear, so bright, so funny, so fearless.

Thank you Magdalen, so many women will carry a bit of your bravery with them forever.

Usually when someone dies I use the formulaic 'May her memory be a blessing' or similar.

There are a lot of us who remember her, who will continue to think of her, who learnt from her. Her influence on this world has been immense.

I too want to thank her for her bravery and her humour and her ability to state the truth clearly.

I don't think that's a particularly constructive comment Which, and I'd be pretty surprised if that sentiment was shared by many other posters here

Beerincomechampagnetastes · 15/09/2019 09:22

You’re just brilliant Magdalen, I used your videos as an introduction to gc feminism for my dd, she absolutely adores you too.

We will miss you.

I don't wish death or illness on anyone. Even unpleasant narcissists who post grave-dancing gifs. I hope they live a long life with all the chance for reflection that entails.
