Woman whose employment was threatened by TRAs suffers arson attack

A few of you will be aware of Twitter user Fifyfomum, who is a massage therapist. A few weeks ago she attracted the ire of TRAs who threatened her and her business. The police did eventually warn one of her harassers, who is still boasting about it on Facebook.

By some strange coincidence, less than six weeks after the threats against her started, her car, with her work equipment and child car seats has been stolen and torched.

I only know of her from twitter, but if you check her out, you can see she may need a little advice / help digging her garden.

I hadn't heard of this before but WHAT?!

I can't believe this is going on - yes, I can - what is wrong with these people?

And what is wrong with the police that they initially (in August) seem more concerned about her understanding of biology than the actual offence?!

Good grief..

Here's some actual crininals go catch them and stop pandering to it all

I hope shes OK

Can you even imagine if the boot was on the other foot? I.e. if a GC feminist attacked a TRA?

MedusasButterDish · 05/10/2020 18:38

Thanks for the heads up. Have followed her. The more eyes, the more sunlight, the more protection.

I'm so angry.

I hope JKR sees her crowdfunder and I hope the person who did this actually gets punished for terrorising a woman, going after her business, destroying her property and ruining her and her children's lives for NO reason.

Jesus fucking Christ. And I bet the police do nothing.

AngeloMysterioso · 05/10/2020 20:15

Jesus Christ that is terrifying.

LadyIronDragon · 05/10/2020 20:16

Christ sake. I don't have Twitter but if she ever reads this, I'm so sorry this has happened to you. We're all behind you. Flowers

ChattyLion · 05/10/2020 20:23

This is horrific.

BitterAndOnlySlightlyTwisted · 06/10/2020 09:23

This poor woman deserves our support. Please dig if you are able

Cocothefirst · 06/10/2020 14:11

Absolutely horrendous.

Digging for Victory here. Let all of us who can, dig deeply.

I'm not entirely sure that woman is always honest about her consistent car troubles...

Oh.
BovaryX · 09/10/2020 11:11

That is shocking. I wonder if the arsonists will ever encounter any police?

Elladisenchanted · 09/10/2020 11:26

I just gave a little and now wonder if should have? I guess if you help her dig her garden, don't give more than you're happy to lose.

ByGrabtharsHammerWhatASavings · 09/10/2020 12:05

I won't say what I want to say, lest I get the ban hammer, but I will just say in general terms that for most groups conducting activism in a way that involved violence and arson would be enough to get that group considered a terrorist organisation.

itsor · 09/10/2020 12:13

I'd really like to think she's not lying about the car. She's not lying about the harassment at least; you can see on the profiles for her business that TRAs are trying to sabotage her livelihood by posting fake reviews etc.
