So much class in the face of so much hate

CaveMum · 28/06/2020 17:05

Just came here to say the same thing. She’s kicking it right out of the park.

I honestly think if she set up and led a political party right now she’s won in a landslide with all sensible thinking women, and men, behind her.

Fallingirl · 28/06/2020 17:05

Just when you thought she couldn’t get more awesome!

BigBadVoodooHat · 28/06/2020 17:05

It’s a stunning response.

I’m in absolute awe of her every time she speaks.

I hope she has even an inkling of what an incredible, strong person she is and how immeasurably she is benefitting woman and girls.

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 28/06/2020 17:07

That is a remarkable response. I'm sure it will elicit howls of rage from the usual mob.

ValancyRedfern · 28/06/2020 17:11

She is the epitome of dignity and class. Truly stunning and brave.

@ItsAllGoingToBeFine

That is a remarkable response. I'm sure it will elicit howls of rage from the usual mob.
It already has. And every squeal and vile insult just makes our case for us.

She is inspirational. I'm sorry that she has to speak out, but ever so grateful that she chooses to.

BigBadVoodooHat · 28/06/2020 17:14

It’ll be interesting to see how KS responds to the gauntlet that’s been thrown down. It will certainly be damning if, hot on the heels of sacking RLD for tweeting someone else’s words, he does not sanction LRM for his own hateful words.

JemimaShore · 28/06/2020 17:14

Oh my god, I am just in awe of her dignity.

Thank you JK, you are wonderful Thanks

SarahTancredi · 28/06/2020 17:15

Flowers JK

GreyShadow · 28/06/2020 17:15

OMG I'm crying at her bravery!! I just love her. Thank you so much Jo.

StandUpStraight · 28/06/2020 17:16

Can someone please post a screenshot? I have blocked myself from twitter for the good of my sanity...

PurpleCrowbarWhereIsLangCleg · 28/06/2020 17:17

She's inspirational. & yes, every narcissistic howl of rage in response makes her case for her.

MollyAtTheFolly · 28/06/2020 17:17

The number of people that have just written 'shut up' as a response. It's so mature and they will definitely ensure they get what they want Hmm Grin

What a waste of a tweet. At least argue your point!

justanotherneighinparadise · 28/06/2020 17:23

Omg that’s just made me cry, she’s AMAZING!!! I just showed the thread to DP as he’s on Twitter and he cannot believe the hate she’s been subjected to. Honestly dumbfounded when I showed him this tweet.

No, if you’re out there, we love you and support you.

TheSingingKettle49 · 28/06/2020 17:24

The amount of people commenting shut up or you’re a transphobe in the replies makes me really doubt the literacy and critical thinking skills of this country.

They seem to think just repeating transwomen are women will make it true, they may as well be saying black is white.

teaandtoast123 · 28/06/2020 17:24

She is truly amazing.

My DC had outgrown ‘Shut up!’ as a damning retort by the time they were in year 2! Grin

justanotherneighinparadise · 28/06/2020 17:24

The Tweet didn’t attach 🙄

I hardly saw any negative remarks. I guess the bats must have flown in later.

CaveMum · 28/06/2020 17:25

@StandUpStraight it’s a thread of 9 Tweets. It’s been unrolled here: threadreaderapp.com/thread/1277263814552100866.html

ErrolTheDragon · 28/06/2020 17:26

Quite funny in a way, the few random men scattered along the thread impotently squeaking 'stop it'.Grin

BigBadVoodooHat · 28/06/2020 17:26

What a waste of a tweet. At least argue your point!

Ah, but to do that you have to have an actual point, and the intellect to articulate it.
