@SerenityNowwwww

Speaking of Julie - she’s gone all out on her twitter biog/handle (whatever you call it).
I'm not on twitter - is she going all out with defending or attacking the guardian?
SerenityNowwwww · 21/09/2020 11:47

Nah - she’s done all T* out and proud. I’ll see if I can’t find the screenshot.

SerenityNowwwww · 21/09/2020 11:53

I can’t see it and can’t find her account. Duh...

NotTerfNorCis · 21/09/2020 12:11

Serenity it might be this or this.

SerenityNowwwww · 21/09/2020 12:31

I’m sure it was Julie birchel! I could have misread if?

twitter.com/boozeandfagz?lang=en - this one?

SerenityNowwwww · 21/09/2020 12:51

Bingo! I thought i was going mad there...

Well, Julie Burchill's always been considered highly offensive by just about everyone, so I'm glad she's lending her voice to women! It ought to garner some publicity for Standing 4 Women and other of our causes. I do like a woman who speaks her mind :)

Interesting - like PP have said the Guardian was part of the original pile-on and I've been avoiding it since.

I was horrified by an article I read in The Independent the other day, basically pure gaslighting. Basically saying it was the morally correct and worthwhile thing to do to boycott the new HP game because of JKR's 'transphobic' stance. Confused Totally unbalanced and preachy (and honestly, just a crock of utter shit) but it was the way it was taken as read that JKR was transphobic, despite many people not agreeing with that position at all. I still find it hard to wrap my head around that.
