Sorry, that was in reply to a poster speculating that our prolific new posters are surely not women, because why would women so vociferously centre male demands over their fellow women's needs.

The protestors have had ample opportunity to do their research about what is discussed. The issue is a recurring one.

They simply don't care that they are in effect mocking women's trauma and pain with their actions. Consider that they chanted mantras all the way through the reading of the list of women who had lost their lives in front of the FILIA conference. They did not give a rats arse about the fact they were delighting in their actions while women were remembering dead women and it was happening right there in front of them.

Then there was the completely detached from reality protestors who lit smoke bombs to scare women discussing Labour policies at a political meeting in Grenfell.

The list is endless. Those protestors are fueling such a misogynistic movement and they cannot see it for their own wilful blindness because they have dehumanised the women who they are 'protesting'.

Instead, they hold dance parties while women discuss the pain of dealing with their rapes, their miscarriages, their loss of children, their domestic violence and abuse. And they insist to the world that they are the ones on the right side of history.

What an abhorrent thing that woman said. I am glad that someone took the microphone off her.

Shall we post up all the abhorrent things that extreme trans activists have said and done so readers can judge for themselves that you had to search hard to find anyone who said such a thing (and even then someone took the microphone from her and stopped her)? Should we start with a male individual called Sarah Jane Baker who called for women to be punched in the face and then convinced a judge it was a joke so they could get on the front page of a newspaper? No one took the microphone off that male individual.

Sounds familiar.

Since you mention the topic, it sound just like GL who was banned from Twitter for threatening women. But he later said it "was a joke", so I guess that makes it ok?

Possible they don't care
Possible they actively enjoy it.

Exactly Helle. Most of the detractors on this board have a recognisable posting style. No matter how many times they name change.

Edited

Hmmmm challenge accepted...

Of course I'll fuck it up by the end of the first post as i have weird spelling autocorrects on my tablet fur some reason because im a lazy cow and cant be arsed to reset them.

Yes, it was a joke. Only someone who is either unfamiliar with humour or who is determined to only present one side of the story would post this.

Because within days, Twitter reversed their decision because they realised that it was an obviously ridiculous claim that was made to have him banned from twitter.

I notice that you didn't actually post that, did you? That twitter reversed their decision? Why wouldn't you want people to know that Pink News also probably never published that fact either... because why? Do you think that you and Pink News have simply abandoned reality and that Pink News has never embraced balanced reporting (or not for years now in any case)?

Do you actually believe things that Pink News publish without checking further? I mean, I am always upfront that people need to go further and verify news from original sources where possible, but you have just indicated that you take your opinions from Pink News.... hardly credible is it?

But because you are desperately attempting to provide evidence to your vile accusation that he threatens people, you posted that.

You have no proof, because there is no proof. You are actually now repeating libellous claims on the internet though. Well done. It further shows that you have nothing but false hoods.

Please stop repeating such libellous claims.

I couldn't try it myself. I would give my self away within three posts.... or as someone once said ... essays...

I believe that you have it right, no 'possibly' for most of them.

LizaBizza · 18/09/2023 11:35

"I notice that you didn't actually post that, did you? That twitter reversed their decision?"

Probably helps that Elon Musk is a gender critical himself innit?

"Yes, it was a joke. Only someone who is either unfamiliar with humour or who is determined to only present one side of the story would post this."

Well in that case, Sarah Jane Barker was just "joking" too wasn't she?

Abhannmor · 18/09/2023 11:36

Nobody here is going to read the drivel in PN.

But I have Glinners post in my head : 'Durr imm gonna kill em. Fuck of Daniel you men's rights activist'

Obviously a figure of speech. My union rep told me ' I'll eat em alive ' referring to the management when I was in a dispute. Twitter didn't exist then so he wasn't given a written warning for cannibalism.

No idea who Daniel is bit he certainly isn't ' women '. Your posts are becoming quite deranged Lizabiza.

ArabeIIaScott · 18/09/2023 11:37

Sarah Jane has convictions for kidnapping, torture, and attempted murder.

Graham, as far as I'm aware, does not.

LizaBizza · 18/09/2023 11:39

While don't condone either GL or SJB's threats/jokes, saying one will kill women is quite a step up from saying one should give people with gender critical views a bop on the nose.

Mr Barker is a violent criminal who breached the terms of his release from prison.

Yes @ArabeIIaScott if Glinner had been sent to prison for kidnap , rape and torture and then attempted to murder his cell mate , I think some helpful Guardian columnist might have brought it up by now.

Can you tell us please what part of 'Durr imm gonna kill em.' is an indication that this was ever meant to be anything but a joke.

Do you think people start their threats with 'durr' usually? I think you are very desperately grasping at straws. He was mirroring what extreme TRAs have been saying, and signalled this with that 'durr' and poor grammar as an indication to very basic, poorly thought out actions.

He is a writer, do you think that he has never used a mirroring device in his comedic writings before?

And no, Graham Linehan is nothing at all like Russell Brand. The two situations are not comparable at all.

Russell Brand and Owen Jones were pals. 'Our generation's Orwell' said Brand of Owen Jones. Jones interviewed him on stage, fawningly. Very odd.
