Your post was a wonderful example of the lengths that people go to in attempting to distract people from this abusive male staff member.
Do you realise not once did you acknowledge the fact that a woman was being abused, that from their family’s account had her belongings tipped over and out, and was physically removed from the store after this. Her partner was also assaulted for filming the incident.
In your post, you never once acknowledged that this was male violence against women and children with the extra layer that this male felt justified in doing so!
You dismissed the action as just one bad person. No! You totally miss the point that a group of males have somehow believed they are exonerated from their abuse of women because they have a special status. And you are feeding into that belief from reading your post.
Considering another woman, one campaigning for single sex carers for those who need them, has faced weeks of targeted threats on line and even a pornographic image sent to her from an Ambulance medic, who also believed they were justified. That male is also often on the media as a prominent spokesperson for trans people.
Plus just over a week ago, a women’s rally was protested using violence and intimidation. Did you see how many police personnel were there to protect women? And at least one woman was assaulted. Fuck! There were people turning up to protest because they were told that the women were fucking violent!!! The absolute lies that are being told is horrendous!
And that was just two of the many abuses of women by this particular group each week. Perhaps if there are more and more incidents being publicised, do you not think the group need to start working out why these events are happening?
Rather than trying to minimise them, or trying to distract from the fact they ARE happening? And rather continuing to say it is just ‘one’ bad person?
Or do you feel that the behaviour of these male people should be hidden behind people posting accusations of hatred and diminishing what took place to attempt to shame others into silence?
How much longer do you think you and others in society can continue to do that? And at what point do groups such as Stonewall and individuals take responsibility for not calling out violent behaviour and allowing disinformation to be spread?
n+1?
(And we know that Stonewall think people are justified to be ‘fighting back’ because one of their spokespeople told us under oath.)
