Has been suspended from twitter. He has been a great ally - as you can imagine there is a bit of a party going on over there.

There seemed to be a post from him here last night about it. Where has it gone?

Campervan69 · 27/06/2020 07:21

This was his message

Sorry here

Really sorry to read this. I think he sacrificed a lot to talk out in the way he did. I will be interested to see how long I last.

InfiniteSheldon · 27/06/2020 07:23

Nothing helpful to add but thankyou @glinner and that awful pile on really should be published as widely as possible.

Newjobnewstart · 27/06/2020 07:25

Strange i can't find that post.

I saw that. There has been an organised campaign against him for weeks. Unfortunately for the TRAs their house of cards is falling anyway, no matter how desperately they try to hold it up.

BovaryX · 27/06/2020 07:26

I saw some of the posts in the other thread. The vitriol directed at someone for expressing views outside the increasingly rigid orthodoxy is something else. It's like Lord of the Flies.

GinUnicorn · 27/06/2020 07:26

I hope it’s temporary. He could be more tactful on occasion but who couldn’t? Ultimately he’s sacrificed a lot to bring awareness of GC issues and I will miss him on Twitter.

Newjobnewstart · 27/06/2020 07:27

I hope he is back soon.

@Campervan69

It’s been hidden as it was overrun by overtired, overexcited, newbies who couldn’t mind their spag and kept going off topic.

Hopefully the flag won’t go up on this thread.

Link to his thread here: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/womens_rights/3950804-Twitter-has-suspended-me

CodenameVillanelle · 27/06/2020 07:28

This is just ridiculous
Twitter is a cesspool. That's all.

Newjobnewstart · 27/06/2020 07:29

Was the post taken down? I saw a screenshot on twitter and someone commented slong the lines of why should i care your male and this is a female safe space

Oh! Thanks Lime - didn’t see it back up.

Dances · 27/06/2020 07:38

Thanks Graham. Wine

There will be fall out from this. The wall is coming down and you toppled a good few of them. Someday people will look back at this and wonder why the world lost its mind.

Look after yourself, this crap play havoc with your MH

SparklingLime · 27/06/2020 07:40

His thread is being targeted by actual trolls so I guess it’ll be impossible for MN to moderate it and it’ll be deleted soon. The absolute weirdness that it has attracted is disturbing and will effectively shut down any discussion. Lots of new accounts posting utter shite.

GinUnicorn · 27/06/2020 07:40

Yes shows them up pretty well...

CodenameVillanelle · 27/06/2020 07:41

MNHQ have done something weird to glinner's thread so the link doesn't work properly although it's not been deleted. @mnhq please don't delete it. I know it's full of trolling but it's actually really important for people to see what happens to people who challenge the cult.

PaleBlueMoonlight · 27/06/2020 07:41

Yes, thank you @glinner

CodenameVillanelle · 27/06/2020 07:41

I don't doubt that post was a TRA trying to look like a mumsnetter
Newjobnewstart · 27/06/2020 07:42

I cant seem to get past page 5 it just goes blank full of deleted comments and abuse. Honestly can they not argue their point without vitriol.

The link to his thread doesn't work.

Hope you are OK glinner.

CodenameVillanelle · 27/06/2020 07:42

@glinner I can't post on your thread but solidarity.
Twitter has just suspended me because I quoted an ableist slur that a TRA had used. I can't check but I would bet money that the TRA is still there

CodenameVillanelle · 27/06/2020 07:43

Mumsnet have taken the thread down while they go through the trolling and spam - hopefully they will put it back up after
