"They argue that trans women aren't women", over film of an obvious drag queen dressed up in the kind of outfit you'd see at Carnival in Rio.

I hope whoever paid for this got a good deal because as an ad it's terrible.

What is she saying now?

Berdgof just bleating on about genocide or something

Wasn’t Bergoff fired a few years ago for saying that all white people are racist? And then trying to say that nonwhites are at a disadvantage for everything? But then this old guy read off all these statistics proving everything she said was a lie and so she back tracked and said, no I when I say all white people are racist and have white privilege, I am not saying that what I am really saying is that society is structured in a racist way....blah blah.

It seems like she just dusted off that speech and crossed out white people and racist and put in women and transphobic.....

I'm pretty sure Bergdorf has never made a public statement that a diligent fact checker couldn't rip into tiny little self absorbed pieces.

Unwatchable tosspot. Can't manage it.

Ringdonna, well, since you asked, Bergdorf is saying that nasty feminists saying no to Bergdorf is a genocide just waiting to happen. I'm quite happy to keep highlighting that particular bit of astounding nonsense. I'll do it again if you want - according to to Bergdorf, women asking questions, and not making trans people a priority, will lead to genocide.

That was a spoof surely? Not helped by the fact most of this audience was waiting for a ‘splash it all over’ punchline at the end and thinking Jeez what drugs are their brand managers on. And then arguing the case for transwomen (because let’s face it that’s all they’re interested in) over images of your classic tucked carnival drag queen? And then some frumpy harpy pointing with a loudhailer ‘down with this sort of ting’ stylee followed by, as someone said, a pantomime image of Linehan (I was looking for his cape so I could go hissssss). I wonder if MB actually saw the finished article because it’s abominable on all counts. And MB is always speaking in that very ‘authoritative tone’ that is so so SPECIOUS. If you actually cut through all the word salad a lot of the time it doesn’t make sense. They sound like an over earnest sixth former on the losing side of a debating contest. Honestly give it a rest. It was so hysterical - genocide FGS??!! Have they not seen the statistics?!

And you know I actually see the point about white privilege and understanding that if someone says they’re uncomfortable with you using terminology you should hear them (cf MB’s Instagram where people are apologising for using the phrase ‘spirit animal’ because apparently that belongs to indigenous peoples) But of course scrap that when it’s a stupid woman objecting to the use of Terf because then it doesn’t apply!

in fact it's reminding me of ben elton's book about people being manipulated by social media, which i've just finished

Right Bernard
It so is. Who is stirring this pot I wonder?

The comments, though! No one is having it.

Seems everyone knows about being fired from L'Oréal, the NSPCC, the Labour Party, the racist comments, the homophobia, the telling women to STFU at the women's march and the inviting kids into private contact.

Seems like it's all fairly common knowledge.

Poor Monroe got the sack from a goodwill position at a child protection charity. Oddly, Monroe doesn't mention that this is because it was pointed out to the child protection charity that Monroe invited minors to speak to Monroeself privately online.

You know: don't do this because it's a red flag for grooming 101.

Yes, obviously the feminists of Mumsnet are concerned about single sex provision for women and the retention of safeguarding because we are planning genocide. There is simply no other rational explanation.

I don’t know about you lot, but - all that human rights blah, blah aside - I haven’t got time to genocide, never mind carry it out. I haven’t run the vacuum round for a fortnight, ffs.

I can't stomach the video. Is there actually a still image of Glinner in it? He could sue surely?

First we are causing trans people to kill themselves, and now we are plotting genocide. Does this person know what genocide actually is?

There is no evidence of trans women being more of a risk, well how can we know if there is not data out there?

It's not that they're more of a risk, but as biological males there is no evidence that they're any less of a risk to women than other males.

The angry T%RF lady is laughably sexist. Compare this hate-filled harridan with the fragrant, bashful, compliant Bergdorf, we are meant to think.

A few posters have referred to the perfectly normal-looking middle-aged woman playing Angry T$RF as "ugly". Well, ugliness is subjective. It is objective reality that she is something Bergdorf can never be, namely, an adult human female.

Popchyk: "Et tu, Brut?"

having stewed on this overnight, I've reported the video for hate speech

this is completely the kind of crap that facebook should be ashamed to host, stirring up extremist views and prejudice against

• against women

Good idea Bernard, I'm off to do the same.

I’ve reported too.
