I would like to propose a motion of thanks to *thewithesarehere* for managing to get Three such illuminating and successful threads onto AIBU

[gardenbird48]

And all who have contributed obviously and MNHQ for allowing them to stay on AIBU in the face of some pressure.

These threads have been a welcome opportunity to interact with our fellow mums and discuss an issue that affects them and their children enormously.

In the spirit of democracy and freedom of speech these conversations are so important. Thank you all.

Agreed.

Hopefully the threads will have made some people actually think about and look into this issue rather than a) thinking it's a niche topic, and/or b) yelling "MN is so transphobic" and then running away.

Totally agree

agreed- very important conversations
so happy when they're in AIBU- well done all concerned

Agreed :)

Agreed

Round of applause to all concerned 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Absolutely

Hear Hear :)

What have I missed?! Can anyone fill me in please? 🙏🏻

and 2 subsequent threads CostaDelCovid.

@CostaDelCovid a thread which would probably usually be over here was posted in AIBU about Helen Stanilad being banned from Twitter for the Stanilad question.

Because of the traffic over on that section it's now on thread 3 and has gained a lot of attention and discussion which is brilliant to see.

It got moved over here, not sure why, then moved back.

Kudos to the OP definitely

Aye! Cheers to the escapee threads. Love them.

I wouldn't have noticed it on AIBU originally, so the fact that it was moved and then moved back was good.

Something of an own goal for the original protester

Totally agree, I have lost a huge amount of time over the past couple of days reading but huge thanks to everyone involved and well done to MNHQ for moving the first thread back to AIBU. I hope many eyes have been opened.

Back to lurking now...

For a comprehensive overview, the video linked here is excellent. And riveting.

This.

Thank you.

As Friend of angryresister currently suspended, who was the original poster, she is astonished at the threads success on AIBU and wishes to convey her thanks to thewithes for getting threads 2 and 3 up so quickly when needed. And good for MN to get it out there. They haven’t resulted in meltdown and the statistic , currently 93% to 7% is worth noting. Brilliant women all.

👏👏👏👏👏👏💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪

Oh you just have to go one better littldog 😀

I've been very pleased to see these aibu threads get such traction. It's been like a public information broadcast

Agreed .

OMG, Datun spoke to me!

I literally just finished watching that linked video an hour or so ago, it was a tough watch but very worthwhile. I highly recommended it to all readers on the very busy third thread in AIBU. The amount of money involved, that was mentioned towards the end of the recording, is absolutely mind-blowing.

Tofu 😁 I always encourage anyone to ask questions and read stuff. From both sides.

Interestingly, two out of the three AIBU threads have been deleted.

It's self sabotage, in my opinion, because now all the people posting on them and all the lurkers, are wising up to why things are reported.

And yes, that video is such an eye-opener.

What???? Why on earth have they been deleted? There were a huge amount of non FWR people who commented on those threads, people who don't usually post here. Hopefully they will be asking questions about this...

Very interesting deletions. Threads 2 and 3 I presume.

Could the desperate reporting spree have been down to the fact that they still had voting enabled? (I think for thread 1the poll got lost in the move from AIBU to FWR and back).

After all 93% to 7% hardly accords with the "it's just a bunch of fringe looneys" assertion. Not surprisingly most women simply do not want to have stranger's uninvited penises in their personal spaces. No matter how many of the woke brigade jump up and down in their echo chamber shouting "well, it wouldn't bother me."
