Feminism: Sex and gender discussions

Russian Funding of anti-woke

It seems that someone has 'followed the money' and Putin's manipulation is everywhere amongst the anti-woke, including the Gender Critical. As the press rallies behind Putin by blaming the West's obsession with being woke ( obviously not the press obsessively being anti-woke ) it appears that so many easily influenced people have been victim to his manipulation and money

That India Willoughby post is jaw droppingly offensive. Jesus, when you think they can't get any lower.

spacehardware · 28/02/2022 16:51

Did the OP address the fact his photo doesn't support his first post, and just change tack then?

Have to say the standard of TRA around here is pretty poor - they don't even quite vast swathes of Judith butler.

OvaHere · 28/02/2022 17:08

Lol. This is some reach even by your usual standards DoM.

@dworky

He only pretends to be toxic masculinity personified, he's really a fan of Dworkin.
🤣😂🤣

This is ludicrous. If Russia is bankrolling anything it would be bankrolling Woke given that Woke is hellbent destroying classical Liberal values such as free speech.

Helleofabore · 28/02/2022 17:21

This is really low even for some posters.

You can certainly tell the quality of the argument when a poster plonks down a dodgy infographic, to call out UK feminists where the infographic has absolutely nothing to do with UK feminists. It is almost like some posters have an obsession to shame women who disagree with them! It becomes clearer every single post.

Some males are simply infuriated by women who won’t agree with them that they too are women.

What a chattering navel-gazer you are, op.

Disgusted, the slide you show is headed 'Hatred of Feminism: the key to Russian funding of VOX support groups'. VOX being a Spanish rightwing party, renowned for opposing legislation to protect women and girls from male violence: english.elpais.com/elpais/2019/11/25/inenglish/1574673576_576207.html

Does this give you a teeny-weeny little clue that Putin is very unlikely to fund feminist organisations? Such as those you dislike so much, currently defending women's single-sex rights over here?

The beauty of MN is that there is no like button, on other platforms nonsense like the OPs would get likes and shares, no discussion, just vapid sound bites.
Here though, OP gets his arse handed to him.

ScreamingMeMe · 28/02/2022 17:40

Excellent, thinkingabout, thanks for the info.I suspect DoM had no clue what they were actually posting.

EmbarrassingHadrosaurus · 28/02/2022 17:44

It's interesting to look at how the OP has been Bunbury'd for the benefit of screen shotting on Twitter. As ever, no link to the actual discussion, just a pious resignation that the thread is likely to be deleted (unspecified reasons for the assertion).

You can see where he got it from in this Twitter thread about this MN thread, but it's just second-hand Twitter - can't see the original source there.

Kevin doesn't seem too bright eh

waves to kevin

Helleofabore · 28/02/2022 17:52

The answer, as usual with some posters, is 'you are not missing anything'. I mean. The infographic has the UK marked and not one arrow pointing to the UK. Supposedly the most toxic feminist island on earth.

Speaking of which, wims!!

Since Putin's lackey's are not fronting up the cash that DoM says we are supposed to be getting, I believe that Maya is short of carrots!

Thanks DoM for starting a thread that we can use to amplify Maya's needs for her garden. That was very #kind!

So. Kev of Mancunia hey, Disgusted?

EdithStourton · 28/02/2022 17:58

I've just had to explain to the dogs that, what with inflation and the fall in the rouble, their treat and tripe budget for next month has been cut to the bone....

EdithStourton · 28/02/2022 17:59

Oh, and I am ShockShockShock at India Willoughby. I know, I know, I should expect nothing better but even so....

Hello Kevin.

"Mumsnutters" how respectful.

thinkingaboutLangCleg · 28/02/2022 18:13

Thanks, Screaming. Logic clearly isn't DoM's strong suit! Nor is research, nor ability to base arguments on facts ....
