Feminism: Sex and gender discussions

The Green Party is at it again - Green Seniors now under attack

We all know that anyone in the Green Party who knows what a woman is and speaks out, will be subject to attack by the authoritarian gender idealogues.

Green Party Women are often the focus of the attacks.

We have come to expect this. But what we hadn't expected, was for the TRAs to turn their attention to Green Seniors.

The Seniors are strong advocates for Free Speech and have an active Google group which has robust discussions on all sorts of subjects, including sex and gender. It's this which has brought them to the attention of the pronoun people.

At this week's AGM, we were all very surprised by the absence of our co-chairs and membership secretary. The meeting was chaired by another member of the Seniors committee who had stepped in at the last minute and was chairing from his hospital bed.

We were shocked to find that the 3 absentees had found out that afternoon, while preparing for the AGM, that they had been put onto No Fault Suspensions.

This open letter on the Glinner substack has all the details (Mandy's a great writer - funny and passionate - it's worth clicking on the link).

Of all the parties in all the democracies in all the world - they had to piss on ours.

The Greens are no longer for for purpose.

Utterly fucking disgusting behaviour by GPEW. As a member of Green Seniors, Green Party Women and a biological sex reality fact based member ( ie GC! ) I despair.

Just waiting to get put on a NFS for stating biological facts 🙄

Wondered if there will be a class action against GPEW over this?

A class action is an interesting idea.

It's horrifying watching the party slowly destroy itself over this. Trashing some of its most experienced and committed members! And replacing them with zealots and cowards. Its sad to see.

Then again - I think of 'if the truth can destroy it it deserves to be destroyed' which I may be slightly misremembering.

The party will need to be rebuilt, with better boundaries and understandings.

I'd join in a Class Action.

There are a few organisations/causes which this ideology has eaten from the inside. Notably Stonewall and Pride, a number of ‘feminist’ organisations, and obviously the Green Party. In all cases, the only real solution is to refocus on the original aims and rebuild.

Does anyone know of any significant organisations which trans activists have built for themselves?

They haven't built anything because they have no real vision. Everything they say and do is calculated to destroy, not create.

Even their intention to "trans" the world is dependent upon destroying organisations, families and lives. Their vision of a man in every woman's space is predicated on destroying not only everything that women have fought for and built up for themselves, but everything that was ever decent about society.

This is because it is far easier to ruin something wonderful than it is to create it. Creation is hard work - it takes imagination, vision, determination, and actual hard physical, mental and emotional graft. They don't have any of that.

They just steal what they want and bully the people who try to stop them. This is why reason doesn't work with them. They aren't interested in hearing it - they just want their own way.

It's a subculture, not a culture. It exists in tension with and response and reaction to the rest of society. 'Queering' society and norms doesn't actually posit anything in its place - I don't think it logically could. It's only about the process of subversion. 'Burn it all down'.

What are these senior citizens supposed to have done exactly to merit suspension? Three of them at once?

The last I heard, they hadn't seen the actually complaint.

The decision was made on about 4th Jan but they found out on 15th Jan when they were prepping for the AGM and one of them queried lack of access to something she needed - she thought there was an error but was told that she had been suspended.

My guess is that it's because of the Green Seniors Google group. We know that some lurkers are TRAs and are probably angry that what they see as transphobic comments (if course, everything is transphobic) have been allowed because the Seniors are committed to freedom of speech.

That's particularly terrible that they didn't even let them know. Who is running all that?

cariadlet · 18/01/2024 19:12

It's all a bit of a shitshow with no accountability and a lot of buck passing.

No surprises there, then.

Why won’t they learn. Have they not noticed all the court cases?
