Irish transactivists

A certain notorious TRA based in Ireland posted a long thread today advising young trans kids to lie to medics and obtain puberty blockers by whatever means possible.

An employee of TENI retweeted the thread. TENI were in the news recently as when the ICGP (Irish college of general practitioners) posted a guide to trans health care which referenced TENI a number of times and mentioned that puberty blockers were reversible. This advice was only taken down when a number of people/groups complained.

Did everyone else already know that the tans exclusionary radical fenian had once opened up a back-alley transition clinic where they removed people's testicles for €500 a time?

They even say that some people wanted it done for dodgy reasons Shock

This person should not be anywhere near children and young people who are questioning their gender. And probably not around a lot of adults either.

The same TRA posted an absolutely horrible rant about Keira Bell after the case basically wishing her every ill under the sun. It was vile. I need to try to find screenshots.

Jesus.

Whole lot of toxic male aggression on that thread (I stopped counting after 16 posts) and all the replies just as bad.

Their twitter ramblings shows the grubby mind of someone like that. That person is a big old fake, on the make. They says in their puerile, spiteful ranting that they hope Starbucks spell kiera's name incorrectly (in the English sense). However, his attempted Irish version is incorrect. Ciara doesn't have a síneadh fada on the last a. It would be pronounced like Kier- aw if that was the case. It's not. It is sans fada, Kier-ah.

It is like they threw a síneadh fada in somewhere to make it look like they knew something about Irish.

This person is like something from a horror movie; if that story about them being involved in a dirty business of chopping away at body parts in a back street setting is true.

And yet well in with many of the Irish feminists and social-justice types. The comparison with contraception and abortion access is in such poor taste.

@SarahGoode

Why is this thread not mentioning names and not linking to tweets? I can't follow it
Yeah cad is ainm di i ndáiríre?

Its just utterly insane.
An American (Canadian?) Male telling Irish women how to be feminists and the silly little fools lapping it up.

A generation ago they'd have been embroidering altar cloths while agreeing with Father about those Godless English women enticing good Irish girls to go on contraception.

The deranged one was attacking Michfest 20 years ago, tirelessly harassing the women involved, mocking and abusing them online, targetting their businesses and livelihoods. Ireland was not ready for someone like this. I think some of the idiot hangers-on have some kind of cultural cringe where they think Americans are cool and are flattered to have someone wade in and pontificate on Irish culture and society through their big ignorant American lens. I'm embarrassed for them.

Are you serious? One of those activists?

A long termer, very vicious, so

That's horrendous. What a toxic, spiteful person.

This person is unwell. They shouldn’t be in any kind of position to influence children, young people or policy.

NotTerfNorCis · 17/02/2021 09:47

I get the impression this person is one of the Voldemorts of the TRA world.

'They' that cannot be named.

irishfeminist · 17/02/2021 14:19

@7days yep. And quite publicly boastful about it too.

Re the thread attacking Keira Bell, a few months ago during the Barbie Kardashian horror, that person ranted out a lengthy thread expressing sympathy for "that girl". Which girl you wonder? The social worker who had her eyes half clawed out by BK or perhaps a victim of his sexual assaults? No, the sympathy was all for this dangerous violent male who was housed in a female prison despite threatening to rape and murder women.

I am sure there are people who've watched this play out and who have at least privately backed away. They should be brave. Don't be scared of Voldemort and don't pretend you didn't know who they are. They're showing you right now, as plain as day.
