Arrested V-tuber (who is a man who identifies as trans) suggested “going after Mumsnet” in 2020 to fully deprive British women critical of gender ideology a space to discuss their concerns with trans-identified males.

I saw this when looking at a different Reduxx link.

https://reduxx.info/popular-female-v-tuber-arrested-for-possessing-indecent-drawings-of-children-is-exposed-as-trans-identified-male/

"A popular V-Tuber who was recently arrested for possessing indecent non-photographic images of children has been revealed as a trans-identified male. Jordan Williams, also known as “Alexandra Williams” or Mimi Yanagi, was exposed by keen investigators on controversial forum KiwiFarms.

Controversy surrounding Williams first exploded last week after a post was made to his X account revealing that he had been arrested in the UK on April 20 and had been forced to migrate to a new account as a condition of his bail.

“On Monday April 20th, Mimi was arrested by the UK Police for possession of her artwork, and her artwork alone. She’s currently on bail pending the outcome of a criminal investigation into her accounts and activities. All of her devices were seized as a result of the arrest,” the post read."

Blue balls, Ophelia. Have you no pity?

Indeed!!

There were times when the threads on FWR did not appear in Active - maybe that's what they mean when they say 'secret'?

Can someone let me on there? Are the recipe and snack suggestions even better?!

To be fair i don’t mind hurting someone’s feelings if it means women get single sex spaces.

I bet they are... but no one here knows where it is!

Maybe Beetle has it hidden along with the right-wing money that we keep being told we are given (but never get).

The special moderation rules were launched in May 2018 I think. There’s a recording of me asking Sheila Jeffreys what she thought about them at a We Need to Talk event the same day.

Yes 😉

Ooh, you rotter, keeping them for yourself!

So another “I’m an old school MNer” type name

Thanks that's interesting. So long before V tuber made out they were at the forefront of a TRA fightback against MN FWR the undermining had started.

Such a shame given the role that FWR played in responding the Government consultation on making gender recognition virtually self identification. (No time to look up the actually wording - sorry!)

Although I suppose it was also the role of the be kind feminism that also contributed to it.

What was or is We Need to Talk?

Thanks

Buried under her stash of Tunnock’s teacakes I expect.

Venice Allan’s original group (predating WPUK etc) which became Standing for Women with KJK, notoriously the first meeting was the one at Speakers Corner in 2017 where Maria McLachlan was attacked (I and several other FWR regulars were there too).

Thanks I do remember all of that, but would not be able to place it by date.

Do you remember it, or have you just kept sensible notes?

I think (in terms of my hazy memory) it was reading Venice Allen's facebook posts that made me more aware of just how wide spread the TRA message had become.

It was, almost a cliche now, about arrogant university students trying to take over a local women's group.

I suppose had we known what was to come we should all have been archiving sequence of events like this somewhere.

Strange to think that Meta probably has the most extensive collection of historical GC / SBR posts etc..

I remember it well, seeing a woman getting beaten up by TRAs metres away isn’t something you forget.

Absolutely - I just meant its the date bit I can never remember

But I went to this https://lilymaynard.com/linda-bellos-and-venice-allan-a-case-to-answer/ which I remember clearly - but not the date.

I’d left for the venue by then, but the things I remember most are the TRAs following us & then standing outside shouting BURN IT DOWN!

It was an emergency backup venue. Venice had originally booked her local library & invited Stonewall to come & put their side, but they preferred to bully the library into cancelling.

I did often think when they told me about this that the whole idea came from "we are doing this to 'terfs' so obviously they must be doing this to us"...

I didn't know about any of this, I came late to the party, I think about 2021 or just after the Scottish parliament passing of that ridiculous bill. I remember thinking, eh?! I had heard rumblings of jk Rowling apparently being "Voldemort now" but I didn't believe it, so read her essay, realised I agreed with it all. Hadley Freeman leaving the guardian was also a push for me, there was a link to an article she'd written about why she was leaving in the comments below her final goodbye article and once I'd read it, I saw what was happening. I Googled women's rights and this Mumsnet board came up!

I'm glad I found it tbh it's been a lifesaver, especially living in Scotland. Our politicians are all mad up here. It's truly infected every aspect of our public services. I hate it all.

Also this man is awful, and they say it never happens eh?! 😔

Nailed it.

Accusations are usually confessions.

The tragic irony....

Reddit TRAs: CSA drawings? Of course they should not be censored! Censorship is bad and authoritarian.

Also Reddit TRAs: SHUT DOWN MUMSNET!! NO HUMAN CAN BE ALLOWED TO TALK ABOUT THE REALITY OF BEING PHYSICALLY FEMALE RATHER THAN MALE!!

I wonder if the people who inssted on the split realised what/ who they were supporting, or perhaps it was a deliberate strategy by TRAs all along?

It was deliberate.

It’s always the ones you completely suspect…
