Anyone going to College Green this afternoon for the rally?
I am hoping to if I am feeling better - crappy cold, and hope the weather holds.

Did anyone see this sign?

I can't speak for everyone but the feminists I know IRL think they're all adults who can sort themselves out. We're just pleased to have intelligent, articulate and courageous women getting the word out and giving us a voice.

From that twitter archive it seems women are the only thing he abuses.

I only heard of KJK relatively recently, I don't know the context of those insults. However, they're not something I would put in print about my worst enemy.

Yes I saw it in one of the pics taken. If I find it again I'll link.

The sign is in the video clip in this tweet

Come now, as an archaeologist and heritage consultant it seems that he has strong opinions about the inappropriateness of light shows projected onto Stonehenge and is passionately opposed to disposable barbecues and litter on Trooper's Hill.

Actually @EmbarrassingHadrosaurus my first sentence should have read "aren't"! I think the poor pamper might be struggling with alcohol.

There is indeed space for all of us. We're making it.

Well the is an interesting take. KJK, "professional far right grifter" arranged for people to act like aggressive, intimidating TRA's to make TRA's look bad.

Hmm at least we agree the optics of aggressive, masked men intimidating women aren't good. Progress of sorts?

Is this the TRAs disowning each other, now?

DrLouiseJMoody · 21/06/2022 23:11

I hope KS is sincere and that those words will translate into real world action. It's a strength to say: I got it wrong. She once messaged me to say that, since the York Head of Philosophy was the only academic that invited her to speak about sex and gender, she could not publicly support when my eviction happened. After that, I found her posts about silent people being complicit in harassment a little galling. Then we have the looking the other way over something more serious. So, yes, I'm wary, but also hope she's better understood where ordinary women are coming from, taken criticism on board, and sees that every woman has a role in this fight.

Thelnebriati · 21/06/2022 23:17

I think feminists in the public eye could do with a reset and reconciliation.

SpinningRoundRightRound · 21/06/2022 23:28

Sorry, who's the archaeologist and heritage bod? I got a bit lost back there.

A trans activist who was particularly... impossible to ignore at Bristol. Get me, choosing my words carefully!

Some of his social media history, such as his pompous posts about preservation of world heritage sites, comically contrasts with his behaviour in real life.

About 8 years ago the KKK came to Boston. They had a stage set up and a fence separating the from us, plus a few dozen cops, female and male, black and white. The idiots in their white robes and pull-over sheets covering their faces were just ... disgusting. One stepped up to speak, but they had no amplifier! I can imagine the conversation, "let them bring their own". They got laughed off the stage and I was proud of Boston.
The crowd started leaving and suddenly antifa showed up, all white, all male. They started throwing balloons filled with piss at the cops for no reason, the OIL had left, the event was a succes. one landed at the feet of a black female cop in front of me and urine splattered all over her. White male urine.
These men are white supremacists that wear black masks instead of white robes. That dude hated that black woman and I will hate HIM for as long as live.

MissingLesbianSpaces · 22/06/2022 01:17

KKK changed to OIL for some reason!

Please do NOT share videos by YouTube Channels "Murun" or "Tufty"!

These are TRAs who are using Name Changes on Mumsnet to drive traffic to their videos so they can profit off GC / women's rights activists.

So as not to be accused of "Troll Hunting" I will not flag the User Names of Mumsnet accounts that are doing this in this thread.

Just remember: they are laughing at us and getting off on us sharing their videos. Every view give them a kick in their perverted pants, as well as a % of a penny in their bank accounts.

It's hard to guard against this.

One way might be for Mumsnetters to ONLY SHARE VIDEOS FROM YOUTUBE ACCOUNTS YOU HAVE VERIFIED AS NOT-TRA

REPEAT:

Please do NOT share videos by YouTube Channels "Murun" or "Tufty"!

Mr Menno probably should have looked in a mirror and thought again, but that doesn't matter because that's not why it's being brought up. Deflect and deflect because tras can't address the indefensible which is their violent, angry men turned on by shouting at women.

This.

Mr Menno wasn't wearing the outfit at Bristol, so the point stands. It's a deflection by TRAs to dismiss their appalling behaviour.
