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.”

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.

I know I kinda stopped using it now

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.

Right.

Anyway, back to these shite mugs..

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.

I get your point. It’s clearly ridiculous that those things, and worse are available on Etsy. If they were aimed at pretty much any other group in society, I’m sure Etsy wouldn’t consider them suitable to sell. Likewise, as pp said, there aren’t any trans equivalents, because there wouldn’t be a market for them. Terfs don’t want transpeople to eg ‘die in a grease fire’ all the hatred goes one way 🤷‍♀️

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.

Is prosecco made by Tunnocks? I'm struggling to see the relevance to MN.

Opens thread

sees Howse is at it again spitting the same cut & paste bullshit he's posted a gazillion times already with his standard side order of misogyny

closes thread

littlbrowndog · 04/11/2025 21:30

I am around a lot. But so many people say it better 🥳🥳

lcakethereforeIam · 04/11/2025 21:30

I just visited the etsy site and searched under 'terf'. Same stuff that was on there last time I looked. Probably not worth updating the merch when there's a load of stock that hasn't sold yet.

Someone's selling 'Protect the Terfs' t-shirts 😃 Unfortunately, it's the same uninspiring, dull design as the dolls one. Fraction of the cost though.

IwantToRetire · 04/11/2025 21:30

I think as the Shadow Minister said the point isn't to do a consumer survey on the quality of Etsy products but to spur as many complaints as possible!

There's loads of misogynist shite on Etsy. I've never seen a single thing that could be considered 'anti-trans' but, as I'm not in the market for that stuff, perhaps it's there and I've never seen it. Etsy is generally a bit shit. Full of stuff that I assume has been ordered from sites like Temu, marked up a billion percent and marketed as handcrafted. I did try to report an item that was clearly fraudulent. The process to do that...I don't actually think there was a process. I rarely bother buying anything from there nowadays.

There used to be a great site called Regretsy that called all this out. Long story short - Etsy don't care, predictably.

littlbrowndog · 04/11/2025 21:31

Been following the Darlington nurses. So many clever people.

its brilliant. Rember years ago when we got the email of the mods that sorry you have to go 🤣

@Howseitgoin Motte and bailey. What is it with your obsession with Norman military architecture? In your own words please? Not just a link to a Wiki page.

The tiramisu flavoured one hmmm. Will be looking out for that this year.

It's the massively dated 'prosecco stormfront' reference, made by misogynistic men, who haven't received the updated Reddit 'phrases to copy and paste to use against those bitches!!!' cheatsheet and are using the dog eared, suspiciously stained one from five years ago.

Dollymylove · 04/11/2025 21:43

Have you seen the prices of this shite?
Bloody hell some folk must have more money than sense 😅

I make my own version of Baileys. I'm now rather inspired to experiment about with flavours this year....

"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…

We know. We've seen you go on, at great length, on thread after thread. And then you return to make the same erroneous points all over again on the next one.

Wasn't there a previously banned poster called that, who used to go onto threads and post weird lies in the hope of getting replies?
