Lol did You see this one- Tranpa got irritated at last and broke his silence. Although Women have been asking this question to #BenjaminButtflaps since quite a long, well a trans person finally voiced it. Would be interesting to see if buttflaps replies something other than usual asthma & gasping 😂

Check that out. Likely lies by twitter as an answer to why people got deboosted. I got away being a bot for no reason. Atleast dint get a suspension for no reason unlike many. So twitter is in solidarity with trans and after GRA reforms cancelling self I'd, they took to responding by suspending women and Detransitioner accounts

They should actually stop with preferred pronouns rule all together in their hate speech policy. Seeing as neither self I'd nor hate crime bill has passed, twitter is consider themselves God above all to implement their own policies. NonSense platform that one.

Also I don't know what Judie Bindel has a beef against Posie Parker for other than Her public claims. But I wish they would stop tweeting like that because it creates a divide in feminists , as to PP Supporter Vs JB supporter. Well , we all are supporting Women here!!! What's up with all that- who is my leader lady 🙄

I was wondering about that too.

JB is right to criticise PP for her getting involved with The Heritage Foundation. It fuelled the now-common belief among American ‘feminists’ that British rad gems are financed by the far right, religious organisations. PP is not a radfem and of course the it’s complete nonsense, but her very public presence at the HF was I’ll-advised. Right-wingers have never been and are never going to be on the side of women’s autonomy wrt reproduction, which, being pro-choice, she should understand. If you want to lobby both sides, you need to be smart about it - I think her stunts have been effective but to have real influence, you need to work behind the scenes, too.

I love JB, but the story of Posie and the Heritage Foundation is a lot more complicated than has been described. WOLF did a great thread on it that I will see if I can track down

Yes, I saw the thread. Still, I agree with JB.

I’m sorry to say it’s not just Americans, who like to pretend they’ve read JB. British journalists were tweeting how pleased they were to see ‘a public intellectual’ trending.
