Glinner Bullseye comment on X

Thatcatsaflippingnightmare · 09/01/2026 20:41

Always trying to explain Glinner to DH, today he showed me on X JD Vance defending murder of the woman by ICE. Glinner had replied something like 'bullseye', as in agreement. I tried to comprehend with "satire?" but he said no he's on Liz truss show these days. I said well he's always been about protecting women and children, he's not suddenly supporting femicide, but the post convinced DH otherwise. Any insights? I'm not on social media

Absolutely. The word 'terf' shows that the original people who stood against transgenderism were radical feminists. Back in 2017, this was a battle between mainly older feminists and TRAs - the Maria MacLachlan era. Then the right-wing saw the left making fools of themselves and seized on it. It was a ready-made weapon for them. I honestly think it was part of what brought Trump back to power. Even now, the right-wing are quick to mention men in women's bathrooms or women's sports, although the subject feels stale and irrelevant given everything else that's happening.

To be honest... I'm often dismayed these days to see the kind of views some other 'gender critical' people have. 'Gender critical' doesn't mean feminist now, it has a massive conservative component. I'm on the verge of leaving a 'gender critical' group I joined on Facebook, because it has too many people supporting the shooting in Minneapolis.

I still stand by it of course. 'Woman' isn't a subjective identity, it's the state of being an adult human female. People should have the right to say so, and we shouldn't be teaching young kids at school about 'gender identity'.

Agreed. The right wing is so transparent. They couldn’t give a shit about women. There’s zero way they care about our single sex spaces while simultaneously taking away reproductive rights. I’m mean, give me a break. That’s before we get onto shooting women in the face…

It is still there. You have go back through his replies to find it and there are a lot and not in order that makes sense to me. Here is my screenshot.

This was one of the ones I saw, I mean, what the fuck is he thinking. He is coming across as hating women, honestly, I was actually shocked. I haven’t always liked some of the things he’s said, but not to this extent, just being a little bit rabid with his responses to TRA’s, which is sometimes understandable! This is something else though, I wonder if he’s actually well.

Believing she drove at him is what makes you bootlickers. Hth

I have not said that. I have explicitly said that we cannot know exactly what happened and that it would be prudent to await the outcome of the inquest, or whatever type of investigation the US have in these cases.

What I have said is that annoying men with guns is a lot more likely to result in them shooting you than not annoying them is, especially when the State has armed those men. I have said that compliance with such men maximises your chance of walking away from the encounter. I have not endorsed this reality, but merely described.

Read what I actually write. Don't add extra words or meanings that aren't actually there. Don't fabricate opinions and ascribe them to me.

This week has been an eye opener, between the shooting of RNG and Grok. You are not alone in your dismayal at some of the things being said by voices you trust and respect.Thanks

There’s an illuminating reply from Glinner on his feed that might give some insight into his mindset about this:

Is it now a feminist action to try and run over police officers with a car? If so, I'm out.”

Of course, this assumes that Renee Good was trying to run over the officer, and all the video I’ve seen so far doesn’t support that (plus she’d been shot in the head 3 times, rendering her incapable of controlling the car). He mentions feminists as he’s replying to a comment about feminists who have supported him being concerned about his current trajectory.

I’d suggest to him it’s human to feel the need to remove yourself from a concerning situation - fight or flight.

eatfigs · 11/01/2026 14:58

Here he is retweeting a call to repeal the 19th Amendment of the US Constitution. This is the amendment that granted women the right to vote.

Links please. I ask because I cannot see these retweets on Nitter and anyone can create a TwiX account and give someone else's long name. Those images show his long name, not his unique username, and I'd like to verify that they are genuinely him.

QueenProtea · 11/01/2026 20:01

you sound surprised that GC views would lead further down a hard right rabbit hole?

when will it finally smelling fishy if this current far right lean isn't enough to make you realise you've been had?

Are you saying that women standing up for their sex based rights and the safeguarding of children are now far right because of a man’s (Linehan) shitty, offensive tweets? Because if you are, then you are thick as mince. And you are also a misogynist if you think that women are responsible for men’s shitty behaviour.

First Rule of Misogyny: "Women are responsible for what men do".

Well they are there. I also found it via Nitter. I'm not sure why it's so hard to believe he would retweet something like this. He is prolific and careless.

PollyNomial · 11/01/2026 20:33

That works if you can categorise the Mail, Times, Telegraph, GBN, Talk etc as left wing but I think that requires a very eccentric definition of left wing politics that wouldn't be recognised anywhere else.

(I accept the left is where it started but it appears to have been co-opted 'cuckoo' style by the right with all the above plus the same far right US lobby groups trying to push the maga agenda over here)

That poster said that GC feminists are usually left-wing. GC feminists are women who defend women's rights, with particular focus on safeguarding and single-sex services. Newspapers are not women, they are not even people, so they cannot be feminists. That poster was talking about what individual people think, not what a newspaper's editorial stance might be.

UtopiaPlanitia · 12/01/2026 00:48

NotTerfNorCis · 11/01/2026 23:24

To be fair, I think he deleted that retweet after the 19th Amendment part was pointed out to him. At least, I couldn't find it against his account.

It is a shame to see him take this side, though. It not only reflects on him, it casts a wider shadow on other gender critical people. I get the impression he's very isolated and bitter. Another thing that's sad to see is people saying they supported him in the past, but don't now because of these recent tweets. Things might have been different if they'd shown him open support earlier on.

Edited

His tweeting has tended towards the obnoxious and bitter style (when he's angry or resentful) in recent times but, given that I've seen him support women fighting for their rights in various countries around the world, and in the last few weeks specifically in Iran, I was confused by a retweet of a man who wanted to remove women's right to participate in democracy.

Your explanation makes more sense to me than that he's changed so much as to want to prevent women from voting.

Maybe we need to reclaim "terf".

I didn't say women are responsible for glinners behaviour. Nice strawman.

However i stand by what i said, GC views are right wing. They're grossly oversaurated by right wing figures, parties and media. Trans people are the political football gay people were in the 80s. First they came for the trans people..........

glinner going more right wing because he wants to tap into the MAGA grift well isn't the fault of women. But it's also not unrelated. Do you think if the it crowd episode debacle didnt get him into the GC rabbit hole he'd have ended up liking the tories or trump? Not a chance.

Earlier today, I tried scrolling back for a month on his TwiX feed and couldn't find the exact tweet. Are you able to give me an exact link to the tweet? Ta in advance.

FastBiscuit · 12/01/2026 01:02

The tweet is still there as is glinners retweet. It's the 14th one down in the link you've quoted.

Don’t annoy those men who are busy setting up a dictatorship! Be nice and polite, women!

Smart people choose carefully when and how to be defiant. You can die fruitlessly, or you can live to fight more effectively. It's easy to talk a big fight like you are from behind a keyboard, much harder to live it in reality.

Darnella Frazier spoke of feeling guilty about not intervening to save George Floyd. She's the teen girl who videoed his murder. She had a choice: try to physically intervene; leave the scene; or quietly and discreetly video the incident from a distance and hope the police didn't notice her. The first option would have got her arrested or shot and George Floyd would still be dead. The second would have been the safest for her. The third option, the one she took, put her at less risk than the first and also put Derek Chauvin in prison. Darnella Frazier was smart.

It is beyond irresponsible to suggest that women don't comply with State-armed men and to claim that those who disagree with you are "bootlickers".

Believing that sex is binary and immutable is no more right-wing than believing that the earth orbits the sun. Believing that sex needs to be recognised in law and policy has been uncontroversial since no later than the Gaols Act 1823, so over 200 years.

Glinner was GC long before Channel Four pulled that episode from their streaming service.

He's a scumbag and he always has been. Became utterly obsessed with something and chose to let it destroy his life and career rather than letting it go because he couldn't handle 'losing'.

Then because that something was the trans debate, he found a new section of support and thought he could parlay it into getting his career back on track. Unfortunately they were only interested in his mouth and not his comedy, and he went fully off the deep end, pushing it to see what he could get away with until there was no coming back.

Now he's trying to do the 'Move to the US and grift the right' thing, only unlike Brand, he's got no connections and nobody knows who he is.

Now the mask is slipping, and the women who back him for his willingness to shout about trans issues are learning that he has no respect for women after all.

Pathetic.

In all honesty, to me, the way you've written this post comes across just as obsessive, cynical and bitter as the Glinner tweets you've complained about.

So the perspective you've given me of both you and him, from how you write online here, is that people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

I disagree that he's got no respect for women at all; I find him a confusing person in that he has good impulses that I admire and negative impulses that I deplore.
