So we have one twitter user calling a bus load of people 'soyboys' whatever that is.

I mean, not being funny, but come the fuck on. That's the extent of the abuse and threats?

And from a man on twitter, not from one of the actual women there? Crikey. Call the cops.

You really don't think bunch of soy boys is a homophobic slur towards gay people?!

Bit out of touch, mate - try urban dictionary in future, it’s nothing to do with being gay.

https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=soyboy%27s

Ive not heard it before but the definition i read was

Soy boy is a pejorative term sometimes used in online communities to describe men perceived to be lacking masculine characteristics

Sigh.

Twit.

Threats and violence never appropriate regardless of who does it, humour about violence isn't funny particularly following the woman with the fractured skull in NZ, and Glinner fully deserved to be deleted, just as Whittle did. Although worth mentioning that only one of those two unacceptable tweets held a real risk of causing someone to be injured today, it still doesn't justify it.

Did I say the tweet shouldn’t have been deleted or that I condoned threats of violence? I stated my interpretation of what I thought Glinner meant by it - that it was sarcastic and mocking. That’s not to say that I think it was a good idea.

My post clearly said that was one example, there's the link to the Twitter thread if you are genuinely interested in what the rest of the comments say

Not seeing any threats? Please do screenshot them.

CremeEggQueen · 16/04/2023 17:16

Surely you don't need a handhold through the thread.
You don't see any.
Fine.

CremeEggQueen · 16/04/2023 17:21

"
I hope they get a warm welcome. If you know what I mean."
Theres another one. We can play this all day, where you go "that's not one, don't be silly..." 🙄
You're right, it's all fine and all they really mean is that they want to meet them off the bus, give them a welcoming hug/ handshake and all go for a cup of tea and some cake together.
Come the fuck on

I don’t see any threats of violence, no.

Which is why I asked you, expressly, what YOU consider to be a threat of violence.

EmotionalSupportHyena · 16/04/2023 17:24

Mocking does not equal threats of violence.

Saucery · 16/04/2023 17:45

Not keen on the disablist abuse in those tweets, but I don’t see any calls to violence. Unlike the tweet this thread is about,

ApocalipstickNow · 16/04/2023 17:58

The phrase “window l*cker” is appalling- but saying it’s a bus full of misogynists is fair comment I would say.

Any that say 'decapitate trans people' or 'kill trans people'? As I must have missed them if there were.

The problem with slinging real abuse and actual rape and death threats at women is that things like calling a quarter of a busload of people 'soyboys' doesn't even register any more.

CremeEggQueen · 16/04/2023 18:06

So not only do we have whataboutery games, there now seems to be a game of abuse Top Trumps as well?
Sick.
ALL abuse /threats are disgusting, why do you seem to think they're not, or defending tbem as "they're not as bad as this one, so therefore it can't be abuse?
Ugh

Mocking does not equal threats of violence.

Threatening to kill is.

Graham is making the news again:

Well this chap got the New Zealand welcome. Presumably Stephen Whittle will be happy with this outcome.

Why are they picking on old people?

i mean obviously i know why they are doing but what the fuck is wrong with them

Sorry Kalimba I phrased that very badly, I was agreeing with you! The 'twit' was in agreement with your comment that Glinner was mocking -just really not very wisely, and meant for Glinner, not you.

Because the double standards and hypocrisy are bleeding obvious.

RufustheSpeculatingreindeer · 16/04/2023 18:35

So…..

in an undoubtedly doomed attempt to keep this thread on its original subject

does anyone think the police will take any action against whittle?

NotTerfNorCis · 16/04/2023 18:38

@CremeEggQueen All the violence and almost all the threats are coming from the TRA side. That's why TRAs have to reach so far to find anything even resembling a threat of violence from the feminists.

TRAs even pose with weapons. 'Punch a terf' is one of their favourite slogans. And they do regularly assault people.

Soyboy is not a threat. And it wasn't from any of the women actually there was it?

'we are getting rape and death threats'

'but what about the people dishing out the threats, one got called a soy boy'

'oh my, that is disgusting, let's all give up women's rights'.

Sorted.

buckeejit · 16/04/2023 18:58

Great day today in Belfast. All went peacefully. PSNI were good, was lovely to meet @Glinner & hear all the brave speakers, especially to hear from some younger girls & women who spoke so well! 💚

Isn't it just? But par for the course.

Nope, i don't Whittle'll suffer any repercussions.

Did anyone else find it disconcerting watching an old man face talking then these female hands appear from the bottom of the screen?
