this is the single thing which made twitter good, anonymous harassment of the rich and powerful
"This random group the masses hate for no reason said something mean to me in response when I was bullying them."
You always go by 'grow a thicker skin'. Why not lead by example, cracker trash? Or are you inbreds too stupid to understand that concept?
None of the people who get worked up about the idea of women's sports being open to all women gave a shit about women's sports before they realised it could be used as a cudgel against trans people. It is completely disingenuous and shouldn't be taken seriously.
Transwomen have been competing in women's sports for decades with no complaint right up until the right wing needed an excuse to go after them, self id has no effect on anything other the beaurocracy around changing legal documents.
Neither are a good excuse to push for repealing the GRA.
Trans people will play sports while you and the shrinking minority of bigots you represent will cry and seethe about it.
Coupla years back some TERFs had a meeting with the parliamentary select committee on how violent trans activists are. Graham Linehan was asked to make a speech.
Pictured is Johanna Cherry, member of the SNP, showing evidence of "life risking threats" from trans rights activists.
Not to cause a struggle session over this or anything but I've heard that calling things "my spirit animal" is seen as an appropriation of and a trivialisation of native American spiritual beliefs because animal totems are, obviously, considered sacred so claiming something as a spirit animal is a bit coloniser-y and kinda redface.
I get that there's no malice intended behind what you're saying and that it has become an engrained, widespread cultural trope but I personally have made a habit of avoiding this phrase out of respect for native American spiritual beliefs, given the long history of the dual impacts of cultural genocide and cultural appropriation naive Americans have faced, and it might be worth reading up on why people are opposed to the use of this phrase to see what you make of their arguments.
hear hear, and i find that it rarely adds much to statements
I remember seeing the clip and she says something like "and what's especially threatening, is that, if you look at the hand with the gun, it's a real hand, so someone has purposely edited in a gun to the image to threaten women with" and there's an MP a few rows in front and to the side visibly trying to stifle laughter in the original video
Fuck. A picture of a real gun!? This shit is more serious than I thought!
I can't find a video clip, only an audio clip: https://invidious.tiekoetter.com/watch?v=VMl9ONoLJns
So my question is if someone sent a member of parliament a tweet such as this with a gun and everything saying "Shut the fuck up c*nt", would that be considered acceptable?
It would be considered praxis
Reminds me of when they showed corecore during the TikTok congressional hearing
