The reliably foolish Good Law Project have commissioned a new outdoor campaign, coming to a street near you.

Of course I support trans – I’m not a monster - Monster

Trans people should be able to live their lives in peace.

Aw no! Please stop pulling stuff before we get a chance to laugh at properly read it, TRAs!

We're going to have to be quicker with all the archiving! Things are falling like nine pins these days 😁

Am I being foolishly optimistic to think that, as Jolyon has so badly blotted his copybook with the trans community, the GLP might find its grifting in this area to be increasingly unprofitable in future, and so might stop with the pointless and desperate lawfare, already? Surely he's a busted flush as their new messiah after this?

First Amnesty, then the GLP, and an article in Diva?, it's like there's a internet stalker virus patrolling the interwebby, eating all the crap up. 🤖

murasaki · Yesterday 14:32

Maybe all these groups are trying to get the trans people to abandon them, rather than getting grief from running away from the issue themselves. The cases aren't winning, so shifting focus would be sensible, but they don't want the grief from actively binning them.

Possibly too devious a strategy though.

Now I have an earworm of The Automatic:

"What's that coming over the hill, is it a monster? Is it a monsteeerr?"

Thehorticulturalhussie · Yesterday 14:50

Well I think that we've come out of this extremely well; demonstrably a bunch of articulate, funny, smart, well-informed, opinionated women who are more than capable of taking on/down such ridiculous twattery.
Go us.

It was something a prominent GC feminist said about other GC feminist women they didn’t approve of.

When I asked, AI told me it was because of the response from the trans community.
Nary a mention of Mumsnet.

Ereshkigalangcleg · Yesterday 14:59

The prompt I used: Can you tell me about the Good Law Project “monster” billboard campaign and how it was received?

and immediately got told about the reaction on MN

I am not a hater of someone who is trans.
Nor I am not a supporter of inappropriate promotions, school visits etc. No.
I have worked with trans people and they were on the whole very troubled, very polite, and lived a life of complete misery.
The conversations around them remind me of the days of homophobia.

Sadly, I have seen very troubled, very polite people heavily influenced by others who encourage them to feel victimised, for example by telling them that "misgendering" is hatred, that mentioning their actual sex is "dehumanising", that people struggling with the total upheaval of their worldview is "transphobia" and "bigotry" ... and I could go on. If trans people want their family and friends to understand them, they need to be open to talking about how they feel, they need to be supported to accept that other people also have feelings and struggles, and they need to understand that those who have supported and advocated for them throughout their lives do not suddenly turn into "monsters" when they are told that their much-loved daughter (for example) is 'really' a man and cannot just accept that because people shout that this is true.

If someone takes the post-modern line that their truth is valid, it is hypocritical to deny the validity of their father's. mother's, sibling's, wife's or child's truth. Personally, I have problems with the concept of "my truth" when it clashes with empirical evidence, such as evidence of someone's reproductive role.

His wikipedia page is the most self-pleasuring word-salad I've ever had the misfortune to read:

We get it, Martin. You are very clever and artistic, and seem to have enough time to write a far-too-long entry about yourself. Have a sticker (but not one with a shark on).

So they had shark (Jaws), gorilla (King Kong) and a dinosaur (Godzilla), but no anaconda from its eponymous film... maybe the anaconda identifies as a gerbil now and it would be the equivalent of deadnaming. Hope he's surrounded by little gerbil friends and has a anaconda-sized wheel to "run" in ❤

CompleteGinasaur · Yesterday 15:23

Wot, no Sharknado?

The Lady Gaga Monster claw thing could become our secret GC sign, so we can secretly acknowledge each other in public😄
