I'm sure one more little click on the odious man's YT won't make that much difference!

Maybe not, but if we all took that stance and clicked bearing in mind how big MN is, it would all add up!
You can all do what you like but I'm not adding to it lol

Posie is successful and effective. Which is why TRAs want her shut down.

For the benefit of lurkers this short clip demonstrates exactly why she must be stopped.

Butterisbest · 18/10/2019 01:40

Wotcha
If you want to know what Posie means go and ask her. Early go and ask her.
Her Facebook page is public. She doesn't hide behind a twee nickname. She engages with people on her PUBLIC Facebook page.
She's doing her utmost to bring the medication and mutilation of children to the public domain.
She's also bringing the planned erasure of Women and Lesbians to the public eye.
You may not like the way she's going about this but she's not the devil.
She's just a woman doing her best.

The Posie v Haddock clip

2BthatUnnoticed · 18/10/2019 01:53

I disagree with some of what Posie says and does.

I’m sure she’d disagree with some of mine.

This is N O R M A L because women have diverse views.

What really fucks the TRAs off is that unlike most people (esp women) Posie doesn’t GAF what they say.

They’ve forced many an uppity woman (and the occasional man) to give humiliating, obsequious apologies for heresy.

And PP just says nah fuck yez.

They cannot control Posie. So they are trying to control how others perceive her.

"Women are appropriating the word woman!"

Priceless.

"Women are appropriating the word woman!"

How dare women expect the word woman to mean woman ?

Creepster · 18/10/2019 02:12

One of the things I used to ascribe to males I now discover is a human trait for some of us. The thing where they cannot accept the reality of indifference also being a human trait.

WotchaTalkinBoutWillis · 18/10/2019 02:16

Did wotcha used to be Roses? Are we allowed to ask or not (apologies if not mods)
Grin
Dafuq cares, people name change on MN all the time?
It's allowed
I do every 4 months or so
Privacy concerns and all that being on the internet, surely it's common sense?!
What has that got to do with ANYTHING thoiugh?
I'm still me and I'm still allowed a view whether I name change or not. You can name change on MN
I've been a regular on Chat and AIBU for years, regularly poster from about 2012 or 2013
There's a couple of old names I had when I first started out on FWR that was always agreed with before I read further... think first time I looked at this board was early 2018 - but I know my earlier views when still learning got more receptive responses.
I'm sticking to being just me though however much people try to say I'm not a woman

2BthatUnnoticed · 18/10/2019 02:39

Yes, it’s totally fine to NC and I understand why people do it. And of course, you are allowed to hold and express any views you like Smile

Creepster · 18/10/2019 02:44

Dafuq cares...
2BthatUnnoticed, obviously.

The only people with the ability to silence anyone on this thread are MNHQ, and thus far they don't seem inclined to do so.

TequilaPilates · 18/10/2019 07:12

Apologies - it was Tequila. Perhaps Tequila would like to answer that then

Yep, I asked because of her visit to the US and the people she aligned with whilst there.

I cannot understand why feminists support her when she appears to support people who are the very embodiment of anti feminist.

Earlywalker · 18/10/2019 07:14

It’s not even about Posie as an individual to me, as I said before it was clear who she was.

She sees trans as the most important issue and is willing to push aside anything else to achieve her goal - even if it means she undermines feminism, people of colour or anyone else.

Some People here are supporting her doing this but refusing to actually say it. Instead, it’s hiding behind Posie and her ‘right to free speech! She doesn’t care about your opinion!’

Which is fine but the supporters are refusing to admit that they are saying and are beating around the bush.

Controversial is doing some heavy lifting there.
Don’t minimise who this man is please. Maybe have a look online and see what his views are on white ethnostates, race segregation, nazi Germany and what he did to an autistic teenage girl to name a few. I certainly haven’t formed my opinion on this twat from the OP here.

TequilaPilates · 18/10/2019 07:16

Did wotcha used to be Roses? Are we allowed to ask or not (apologies if not mods)

2B I think that is totally out of order. People name change for many reasons including not wanting people that knows them irl to be able to link their posts. That's really not on to do that.

Why does it matter who anyone is in regards to the discussion we are having here?

TequilaPilates · 18/10/2019 07:28

Earlywalker

I completely agree with you.

When I first came on here I started to think that I wasn't a good enough feminist because I didn't share some of the views that regular posters had on the trans issue. I really was questioning why I thought what I thought, why other posters held their views, why my views differed etc.

This thread has opened my eyes. I can now see that the reason my views don't align is because many of these posters aren't coming from a feminist viewpoint - they are coming from an anti trans position first and foremost and then a concern for women comes below that.

I no longer care that my version of feminism isn't the same as some of these posters. In fact I am relieved that I can see how wrong it is to align with misogynists, racists and goodness knows who else just in order to push my agenda.

PP is free to say whatever she wants. I have no interest in what she says but I cannot understand how any decent person can defend her aligning with this particular man, on his channel. The only way it could be defended is if she went on there and confronted him about everyone of his views - which I'm guessing she didn't do.

I honestly do not understand how anyone with any integrity can defend the indefensible.

2BthatUnnoticed · 18/10/2019 07:35

What does “support her” mean here?

Does it mean “decline to publicly denounce her on MN”? Confused

Speaking of public denunciations, have you tweeted the YT guy to tell him to stop being an asshole?

TequilaPilates · 18/10/2019 07:40

2BthatUnnoticed

It means admitting that this man holds some disgusting views and that in this instance she got it wrong.

What's wrong with that?

Have you tweeted him to tell him his views are wrong?

And why have you not apologised to wotcha about the name change comment? That wasn't on.
