The responses are glorious and entirely predictable!

This is beautiful.

That screenshot from OJ, though!

The Graun should do a special Misogyny issue edited by LOJ, where he mansplains what ‘actual misogyny’ is for the entire edition. It’s heading that way, anyway.

Is anyone on here on twitter who is not blocked by Owen Jones? Has he responded.

Going to be one hell of a ratio!

I'm blocked by Owen Jones and I'm not even on Twitter.

My kitchen sink is blocked and I wouldn't be surprised if Owen Jones did it!

ArabellaScott · 06/02/2023 22:06

'many of them ally with anti-abortion activists and far right extremists'

Gosh that is a brand new take, isn't it?

Has anyone had their cheque, wife, or free T shirt yet?

Misogynist mansplains misogyny to a group of women persecuted and threatened for believing in physical reality, while his employer looks on puzzled and asks “what is online misogyny?”

Loving the replies on that Twitter thread. What do all the references to ratio mean?

LexMitior · 06/02/2023 22:10

The reason I no longer buy the Guardian. Even the Telegraph is less offensive

ghislaine · 06/02/2023 22:11

Perhaps it’s time for Owen’s performance review at the Graun?

Graun: What progress have you made towards your KPIs, Owen?
Owen: er….
Graun: Just a minute, I’ll ask on Twitter.

Ohyoudodoyou · 06/02/2023 22:11

Oh what joy, that whole tweet and the responses. Are you listening @the Guardian and Little OJ?

LizzieSiddal · 06/02/2023 21:32

There's no hope for him. His response just glaringly proves the point. What an arse.

Was The Guardian's systems hacked or something? Priceless twitter thread!

The ratio of comments to 'hearts'.

People generally support with a 'heart', but counter a tweet with a comment. I think.

lifeturnsonadime · 06/02/2023 22:15

LOJ must have logged out of Twitter to read the replies otherwise the thread would have had more holes than Swiss cheese given the number of women he's blocked.

Then he's logged back in on his own account to have a little misogynistic rant.

What a fool he is!

Outlandishly, one woman is suggesting Owen listen to women when they tell him about misogyny.

Silly woman! Doesn't she know Owen knows what she REALLY means when she says he's hurting them - she's just doing a far right dog whistle!

ValerieDoonican · 06/02/2023 22:15

I couldn't resist responding to the survey. I expect you can guess which instance of online misogyny sprang to mind....

ArabellaScott · 06/02/2023 22:16

Also even those of us who have had abortions and support access to abortion are anti abortion because Owen says so.

And all of us on the left are actually far right. Owen knows.

Does she have a penis? If so, she should be fine.

EdithStourton · 06/02/2023 22:23

That ratio is a thing of joy.

But God, whoever decided that was a good tweet for the Grauniad to run must be very, very, VERY stupid.

I suspect not, but best ask Owen to be sure.

ArabellaScott · 06/02/2023 22:24

Do the Guardian have any idea how many women feel about them? I wonder.

Perhaps now they do! Will the article ever see the light of day though??

LexMitior · 06/02/2023 22:27

The Guardian has always been a liberal wet paper - it's not particularly left wing, nor is it very well written any more.

Oddly, the Observer is really good. I don't get why they are so different

Either that or a) they’re hoping LOJ will disappear up his own wokery, implode and it will save sacking him or b) they’ll be able to demonstrate his unpopularity in order to get rid of him.

They have different editors.
