See https://www.etsy.com/listing/1858479662/die-mad-terfs-trans-inclusive-mug

I thought this must be a wind up in a Daily Express article but turns out to be true.

Other items include lawn signs reading “In this house we don’t mourn dead transphobes”

Mims Davies MP, the Shadow Women’s Minister, said: “My actual first thought was who actually relaxes with a cup of tea with a death threat on to women?

“This is appalling and, once the item is quickly removed from sale, serious questions need to be asked.”

I wish it had some punctuation. Is it supposed to be 'Die, mad Terfs' or 'Die mad, Terfs'? Perhaps it's misspelled and should read 'Dye, madder, Terfs'? A hobby to pass the time now it's so unsafe to leave the house.

You've just reminded me of the Simpson's episode with Sideshow Bob declaring that his tattoo is German for 'the, Bart, the'.

I'm sure that'll be the women hater's defence when asked to justify the death threat mug.

'It doesn't say die mad terf! (Nervous laughter). It says, erm, well,...oh yes! It's meant to say 'the made terf'! It's a, erm, gardening joke!'

Are you sure it's the correct German 'the'? Have terfs been misgendered?

it's plural.
And in any case it would be "die" for a woman, TERFs are women generally, or not?

"What rights are transpeople being denied?"

Denial of usage of basic utilities..like bathrooms.
Denial of freedom of movement from an imposed moral panic
Denial of identity
Denial of self determination
Denial of health care
Denial of basic civilities

I could go on…

You seem to have become confused -
Denial of usage of basic utilities..like bathrooms. - Nobody is denying people access to the correct public toilets
Denial of freedom of movement from an imposed moral panic - nobody is denying people freedom of movement unless they’re locked up in prison.
Denial of identity. Nobody is denying anyone the freedom to identify however they wish, but nobody can be forced to agree to their identity either.
Denial of self determination - at its most basic level, ones sex is not self determined.
Denial of health care - cutting off healthy breasts or giving males breast implants isn’t health care, it’s mutilation.
Denial of basic civilities - this is the action plan of TRAs worldwide.

Motte bailey.
MN, X, reddit & facebook are chock full of demands for private spaces framed in dehumanising demonising rhetoric of trans women as delusional predatory fetishists & trans men as hapless victims of propaganda.

No, not “delusional predatory fetishists”. Just men.

A cup with an edgy joke is hardly a threat…

And yet some people would believe that telling a man in a dress that he’s not a woman is the Hate crime of the year!

Edgy joke?

Advocating violence against women.

Fucking hilarious... say incels.

But hurty truth telling words are ‘literal violence’! 🥱

Yup, how convenient for that site to never post the preceding tweets?

There's this thing called 'cherry picking'…

I wonder what could possibly have been posted to warrant this response?

Eta it's pretty nasty MN might censor it.

German:
Die made Terf (feminine singular)
Die maden Terfs (plural)

End of grammar lesson 😄

“My actual first thought was who actually relaxes with a cup of tea with a death threat on to women?

The same sort of person who viciously mocks the existence & rights of trans people while relaxing with a nice cold glass of prosecco?

Edited

And are you still on about the prosecco? Soooo 2018. Moved onto Cremant and then small batch gins quite a while ago.

The TRA who updates the 'big book of insults against women' is really behind on his work. Tut tut.

Could we please have one thread where the derailers dont get us all to cooperate with them.

Its getting pointless starting threads if so many fall everytime for the usual suspects.

There is no such denial.
All people are entitled to use the public lavatories which align with their birth sex.

Men (transwomen are men) can use the men's.

Women (transmen are women) can use the women's.

Absolutely nobody is denied access to public lavatories.

Etsy these days is mostly overpriced sub-Temu level tat, and counterfeits. I feel sorry for real artists and crafters who have to use it as the cost to sell on the platform is supposed to be very high.

Err the 'law' you think is in place hasn't actually been tested yet to mean what you think it does hence The Gov dragging its feet …..so good luck with that.
