Came across this today on Twitter. The TRA movement constantly uses the language of violence and hate. It’s ridiculous that groups like Stonewall don’t come down hard on it - or they just lose all credibility.

Such ladylike threats of male violence.

That’s made me feel a bit sick, tbh. If I thought that any of these ne’er do wells actually ever went out in public, I’d be worried.

Seems to be wimpy-looking young men posing with baseball bats and staring downwards (is POV point of view?)

stillathing · 04/10/2019 12:31

Yes it's a porn reference.

So feminine.

AudacityOfHope · 04/10/2019 12:34

I don't get it, what is POV meant to be in this context?

They're all so embarrassingly desperate for attention. I can practically hear their mums shouting up the stairs of their wee suburban semi to put the bloody phone down and get downstairs for tea.

Stupid wee boys.

I reported one of these this morning when I saw it on Twitter. It's gone already. Very quick. There are a lot of tweets I've reported that have been disgusting that have never been removed.

FadingStar · 04/10/2019 12:36

Dead eyed misfits. They've gone badly wrong.

Dead eyed misfits. They've gone badly wrong

Yes, I think that pretty much sums it up.

GingerCake2018 · 04/10/2019 12:43

🤣Your deliberate attempt to alienate the trans community from allies is ridiculously transparent (that means see-through btw, not someone who changed from a non-parent).

This reply to one of those Muppets made me laugh.

NotBadConsidering · 04/10/2019 12:46

I really want some Care Bear nunchucks now.

Findumdum1 · 04/10/2019 12:48

What does it actually mean in English though? If you're a TERF lying down in a porno im going to hit you with various things?

VictoriaSpongeAndTea · 04/10/2019 12:56

I still don't understand what POV means in this context

ReanimatedSGB · 04/10/2019 12:59

As PP have said, this is silly, obnoxious teens being silly and obnoxious. Twitter is hopping with this sort of silliness and always has been.

AvocadoToes · 04/10/2019 13:06

POV = point-of-view, i.e. this is what the fantasized object of their misogyny would see.

Ereshkigal · 04/10/2019 13:07

Yes, and Twitter can delete all the tweets if they care to and ban the misogynistic little fuckers. Violent threats are a crime in most jurisdictions, after all.

WannabeGlamper · 04/10/2019 13:10

I've read the whole thread, and I still don't understand the sentence 😄.

I'm trying to imagine what it must be like for your hobby to be threatening women on Twitter 🤔. Nope, no idea, it's nuts.

nauticant · 04/10/2019 13:13

My guess at a translation is that any T*RF responding to me will be on the receiving end of me wielding a weapon against them and this will be what they see.

It is very sad. I can't imagine what their mums would say.

SarahTancredi · 04/10/2019 13:18

They really have no idea what the are fighting for do they..

AudacityOfHope · 04/10/2019 13:18

Honestly, laughable muppets, stropping about their sad little hometowns waiting to be offended.

They're the physical manifestation of the song 'Every day is like Sunday'.

No different to teenagers anywhere, they just happen to live in this era, and will realise when they're older what a total twat they were.

(I'm feeling exceedingly charitable today)

Datun · 04/10/2019 13:19

Completely agree. It's cringe. Go back a couple of decades, and it was the James Bond pose with a gun. When my kids were smaller, it was the 'two fingers cupping the chin, sardonic' pose.

I guess adolescent postering never looks embarrassing to your current crop of posturing adolescents.

Ereshkigal · 04/10/2019 13:36

There are some perfect descriptions on this thread.

nauticant · 04/10/2019 13:42

Well done to whoever coined the term "trancels". Simply perfect.
