Daughter in early 20s lonely due to GC views

1000 replies

Currentquandry · 05/04/2026 02:10

My daughter is in her early twenties. She is GC and is struggling because so few of her peers have similar opinions. She is very lonely because of this. Are there any online groups she could join to give her a sense of community? She is also ND. Thank you in advance for your advice…

Of course not, but that's the words they are twisting into whatever fits transphobic narrative, why would truth matter?

You really did say that.

Maybe you never actually thought about what the words you wrote said. But you did say that and twitter is full of screenshots of your full tweet saying it.

be kind is often terrible advice. Used coercively too.

It really has become a platitude now.

@IggyPopsPlasticTrousers if Aida is calling for ‘bigots’ which in his language is anyone who expresses GC views, to be fucked with a splintery rolling pin, do you
a) think he’s asking them out for a coffee or
b) think he’s calling for sexual violence as an antidote(?) to their apparently hateful views that TWANW

GlovedhandsCecilia · 05/04/2026 10:07

Not sure we should be posting screenshots and usernames of people from other sites. That would be considered doxxing on some sites.

In fact, here's the screenshot.

Aida disappeared quickly off the thread it was originally posted on to have a foot stamping tantrum on Bluesky and Twitter because he was called out for it.

For all the 'be kind' 'both sides are as bad as each other's - you might find 'fuck nazis' unproblematic but what about the rest? (Which you neatly sidestepped)

Jesus. Who would actually post then and then share it on here too?

So fed up of ‘both sides’. There is nothing remotely equivalent on both sides - least of all on this thread (or even site in general).

Rowling isn’t a nazi, as far as I’m aware. Just an awful person and a terrible writer.

He posted the link himself to that post. Take it up with Aida!

Threatening sexual assault against women you disagree with is utterly indefensible however much you hide behind 'you're all transphobes!!'

You've certainly succeeded in making yourself visible - as an angry, violent, entitled man.

Don’t be silly. You knew what I meant.

I accept they haven’t been banned from sport, exactly as you say.

I assumed you meant what you wrote.
Otherwise, why write it?
Clarity of language is crucial where this issue is concerned.

what @GlovedhandsCecilia said her views shouldn’t be her whole personality

Show us.

After you have posted that and other things over the past days, why the fuck would I highlight women who have taken screenshots so you can target them as you have targeted other women such as sending in BSB complaints about them.

No. You also offerred to meet with a female poster over MN to discuss your views. You do not seem to recognise boundaries and acceptable behaviour.

Tomselleckhaskindeyes · 05/04/2026 10:11

Thankfully all my kids are GC and i think it's mainstream. They are 14/15 and it definately is on its way out. However i appreciate we are in Yorkshire and very down to earth people.

Had Aida himself not posted a link to his own post on this very thread, you might have a point. As it is, you're desperately grasping at straws.

Why?

Right, because it doesn't exist, you just wish for me to fit in your stereotype as you've been told to be invested in it. Usually by people who call for literal murder of charity leaders.

How is JKR an “awful woman” @IggyPopsPlasticTrousers - her funded work into MS? Setting up a domestic violence refuge?

Imagine being the child of a parent who posted about violent corrective rape with a rolling pin.

Poor kids.

Aida did indeed ask a female poster to meet to discuss her views on MN. While also posting about bigots and what should be done with them on other social media platforms where he actually also linked that OP’s thread!

Aida tells us all the time that we are the bigots. And we have been left in no doubt what should become of us

I'd just stay quiet on Waynetta and go to the toilets alone.

Waynetta might have other ideas.

Her bigoted hateful language and her dumbing down of kids’ literature.

AidaP was so keen to meet this lone woman that he even offered to cover her travel [shudders].

Her bigoted hateful language? Did you have any thoughts about this? What kind of language would you call this I wonder?

And let's send a clear message to the world: fuck bigots and especially nazirowling with a splintery rolling pin
