Do these idiots really think they are clever.

🚨Breaking🚨

Trans activists have just disrupted the annual Conference being held by LGB Alliance by releasing insects in the main hall.

These nasty individuals who seek to disrupt a peaceful conference of lesbian and gay people show themselves up to be the real bigots.

I joined at a feminist event where they had a stall, nice and easy! But I have found this link on X.com, where you can donate a set amount each month.

Hope that works. As my real active activist days recede into the past, and I get older and creakier, I’m glad I can stay involved by sending little bits of money.

Did you get a card?

Well quite.

They obviously got the memo.

"Alright guys, that court case caught us out 😱😱, can a few more of you put down that you are gay men / lesbians when we send the next survey out? Please and thank you, thank you, ta muchly, muchly 🙏🙏🙏🙏 😅😅"

What a silly answer - by this standard, no lesbian, gay man or bisexual is ever to be believed when they state what their sexuality is. This is exactly what many LGB people have experienced throughout recent history: "you just haven't met the right man/woman", "it's just a phase", etc etc.

It's homophobic to insist that gay men, lesbians and bisexuals are really straight, just because it suits your agenda. I've been to plenty of LGB Alliance events, and can confirm that while straight allies were present in most (all?) of them, LGB people were in the majority, both on the panels and in the audience.

Now I’m racking my brains, Alison! I have got a badge 😀. I’m on holiday at the moment, but will dig out paperwork when I get home.

It doesn't matter whether LGBA has since set up something in the nature of a membership scheme, it didn't have one at the time the fake news purveyors are crowing about.

TheBrickHare · 14/10/2024 18:32

Without the direct link to what can generally be agreed to be a homophobic hate-crime it’s probably a struggle to force crowdfunding sites to pull the other pages. You’d hope the fact they were blatantly sourcing funds for crime would get the organiser banned from starting future funds, but apparently they would require too much.

Each crowdfunding page should be reported separately. The original crowdfunding page has the stated aim of raising funds for direct action. So this fundraiser paid for all the insects that were released on Friday. It is fundraising for illegal activity and hate crimes which is against JustGiving’s guidelines.

You can report the page here: https://help.justgiving.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

You’ll need to google the group’s name to get the link to paste into your report.

This should be done right away before they have the chance to bank the £14k donated so far

I'm struggling with my response to all the posts describing the perpertrators as vulnerable.
People involved in social justice activism know about genocide, they know about dehumanising language. I find it very hard to believe they aren't fully aware of the resonance the image will have of fumigators coming into the conference centre after gay men and lesbian women have vacated it.
I think these young people have done something very cruel, evil, even.
Perhaps they are particularly dim and didn't recognise the connotations of their vandalism, but I think it's more likely they are cruel bullies who have cottoned onto the fact that claiming a trans identity gives them a free pass because then every adult within cooee can say nothing but, "They're so vulnerable." Regardless of what they do.

And presumably all the crickets were killed? What a cruel bunch of nasty kids. About sums up trans ideology.

lcakethereforeIam · 15/10/2024 11:59

The crickets probably weren't destined to have long and happy lives, but they weren't just killed they were wasted.

From what I can tell the child in the green blazer is tiny. Camera angle, genuinely young (10 yo?), or is that the effect of puberty blockers?

Anyone banking this money will be digging themselves into quite the legal hole and making it even easier for the police investigation to proceed.

I very much hope so, none the less there is an active crowdfunded with that much money on it

This article is under the name Gemma Stone, shares a letter signed by a number of children, the youngest 13 years old.

How did I guess this individual would be involved.

ArabellaScott · 15/10/2024 12:19

Another crowdfunder up on platform 'chuffed.com' with the name 'Supporting the crick-kids'

'6 of us released about 6,000 crickets into hate group LGB Alliance's annual conference. The result of the conference, if it had gone ahead as planned, would have been an acceleration of transphobic hate and misinformation, which drives much of the attack on our healthcare and our dignity.
We are so proud of ourselves for ending their spewing of violent hate, but a bug's gotta eat and we can't feed them for ever. We are so grateful to anyone who can support us in this capacity, you're enabling us to keep fighting for the healthcare, dignity, and voice of trans kids. Your support means the world to us <333'

Ereshkigalangcleg · 15/10/2024 12:23

By all accounts it did, with extra crickets and a big cleaning bill for the venue.

Everyone can make this complaining just a few minutes. There should be a publicised apology

Thanks very much - have reported. Isn't it amazing that even when what is being reported is a serious attack on lesbians, gays and bisexuals peacefully and legitimately gathering, it's they that are described in defamatory terms. And it isn't just semantics - false information like this encourages and legitimises further attacks on LGB people who dare to stand up to homophobic gender ideology.

I think it was the saboteur's video, but they could have blanked it out.

SinnerBoy · 15/10/2024 13:23

I have made a complaint, pointing out that they shouldn't be regurgitating activist propaganda as fact, also that Wermaids lost their court case, alleging that the LGBA were an anti-trans hate group, which makes the broadcast defamatory.

I can't share links to a crowdfunder on here, it's against site rules.

Google 'chuffed.com' with the name 'Supporting the crick-kids', and there's a button on the page to report it should you wish to do so.

However, I would still recommend sending this to the Met and/or Prevent.

This organisation continuing to fundraise is just providing further evidence for the investigation.

Actually you can, they get unblocked if you're not actually raising funds (see my post about 4 pages back), but I do get it

The video maybe, but the text imposed over the top is the ITV branded colours.

LGB Alliance  conference disrupted by TRAs
Ereshkigalangcleg · 15/10/2024 14:39

That's definitely biased and as pp said, possibly defamatory. No one calls a feminist conference an "anti-man conference". Well no one worth listening to anyway.
