Hi all. Stella is an experienced psychotherapist in Ireland, who is receiving a lot of unpleasant abuse for her principled stance on GNC kids.

If anyone has any saved screenshots relating to any tweets or other social media posts Aidan Comerford has made about Stella, feel free to pm me and I will pass them on.

I wish I did! I think I don't think I've despised anyone more in my life and I've never met him! I'm blocked by him but have ways to spy. I'll keep an eye out.

He is a total and utter prick. I'm glad Stella is standing up to him.

I think glinner is also threatening action

He has been unrelenting in his bullying behaviour. It was very satisfying to see his apology to John Boyne.

He's still sharing that one screenshot of Magdalen Berns', isn't he? You do have to wonder what is going on in his nasty little head that shitting on a woman who died young, and tragically, is a priority.

Does he have an actual job? I know all that bile and misogyny won't tweet itself, but I wouldn't have thought it was a paying gig.

(Which reminds me, I had wondered what would happen if all GC twerps got hold of that little YouTube clip of him singing about being a lesbian trapped in a man's body and posted it in reply to any misogyny from him.)

AnotherLass · 23/02/2021 08:41

He did a "comedy" show once in which he sang a song about how he felt that he was really a woman - it's on YouTube somewhere. So I have a pretty good idea about what is going on in his nasty little head. Blanchard wrote about it. This one is obviously full of self loathing about it.

Doyoumind · 23/02/2021 08:45

Vile man. I never bother to read his posts even if they pop up in a thread. I actually think his life must have gone downhill since Glinner got booted off twitter because Glinner gave his life meaning. That's why he's so vicious towards anyone he spots as a potential replacement.

teawamutu · 23/02/2021 08:48

Just for the avoidance of doubt, I meant GC tweeps, not twerpsBlush

And that was the clip I meant, *Lass" - do you think he'd stop sharing the Magdalen screenshot if that clip inevitably turned up in the replies?

That’s despicable. I’ve been binge listening to Stella’s podcast with Sasha Ayad recently (it’s called “Gender: A Wider Lens” and I really can’t recommend it highly enough) and how anyone could take issue with her position is frankly beyond me.

She talks openly about her own extreme gender non conformity in her youth, where she suffered severe dysphoria, and was certain for some years that she ought to have been male, but she eventually reconciled with her sex.

Her approach is inquisitive, open, supportive, intelligent. If anyone honestly thinks she’s transphobic, they’ve lost their fucking mind.

Sorry I don’t have any screenshots about Aiden, but I just wanted to fangirl over Stella a bit in solidarity, and to bump the thread.

Oh Glinner still gives his life meaning. Comerford has chased Glinner all over the Internet. He reads his substack so avidly it's like he's sat there constantly refreshing the page so he can screenshot it to Twitter. He also tunes in every week to Glinner's YT podcast to share it Twitter to pick over, twist and abuse. Not happy with Glinner being 'cancelled' he also tried to instigate a pile on onto Glinner asking people not to donate to Glinners 'buy me a coffee' page (as well as telling people not to donate to ArtyMorty's either)

I believe his relentless bullying of ArtyMorty and his horrendous misogynistic abuse and pursuit of Helen Staniland is, at its basic level, a way to get to Glinner (as well as the added bonus to him of being a horrendous misogynist in the process)

Sorry for ranting but I hate the man. I can't stand bullies.

teawamutu · 23/02/2021 09:26

Apart from all that, what does he do though?

PatsArrow · 23/02/2021 09:27

I think he once wrote a shit book that didn't sell very well and an attempt at a self published children's book. Other than that it's a complete mystery.

Stella’s podcast with Sasha Ayad

Also on youtube: www.youtube.com/channel/UCP62aWWtlZV1oVnbMhTRBcg/videos

I do wonder though about the wisdom of getting drawn into pig wrestling with GFs like Paisley.

At this point I think intervention is required. The TRA's have been trying to stir it up with Stella's professional body. I've been digging out screenshots myself and the comments made that go back years, are atrocious. It's never ending, and a barrage of unfounded slurs. He may believe TWAW, and he could easily make his point without personal insults, but he is incapable of doing so.

nauticant · 23/02/2021 10:04

Fair enough. It's definitely a personal choice for the person who's been targeted.

@teawamutu

He was a stand up comedian. Although I never heard of him until I came across the FB page Oh My God What a Complete Aisling - back when it was very funny and perceptive about Irish like. Comerford started sharing random vignettes of his family life. They often featured his autistic daughters. Eventually he used the forum to publicise his book , although in fairness so did the two founders of the page? Omgwaca is of no further use to him of course , being moribund these days ,but it had 50k members at one point. Hence his obsession with Glinner , a genius of comedy who has written 3 hit shows whereas Comerford is a non entity. I was in a chat group of mostly women refugees from Omgwaca. Many of them said they found Comerford really creepy . But they still booted me when I stood up for JKR. I thought one or two might reach out after the Barbie kardashian scandal but no. Are there people out there who realise they've been had I wonder? Maybe waiting for some critical mass of friends and acquaintances to come out as GC.

Stella s Podcast is amazing. Well worth a listen.

peanut2017 · 23/02/2021 22:01

Stella is amazing. So honest, fair and open about her thoughts on all this. Have listened to the podcast and it's very good. She doesn't claim to know everything about the topic and is willing to listen to all sides.

Aidan is an absolute bully. Such a horrible person
