Jesus christ. This is the first Glinner/JL article I couldn't read to the end. It made me feel sick. I will have to read it all though when I have the stomach for it again. I am grateful for the warning. I know my 13 year old daughter visits some of those LGBT Reddit groups. It makes me white hot with rage and tears are stinging in my eyes wondering how it has got this far. Central outliers indeed. They don't even have to hide it anymore. These are the people all parents have their 'worse nightmare' moments about, except they are real and here and close to our children. I feel physically sick so can't imagine how hard it must have been for the writers and researcher to put this together and for that I thank you.

The Challenor shit show was what made me aware of TRA's, queer theory, etc... While I learned a lot of what's in the piece back then its still disgusting to see it all in one place; to see how victims become abusers

I've been concerned by the policy capture at reddit for some time, they purged the majority of gender critical subreddits some time ago, but they've also mandated external admins on what remained. Reddit is not a safe place for children, teenagers or the vulnerable.

Vomitous. Yes, sympathy for the boy who disappeared. Horror that anybody anywhere assisted him in his endeavours. And just how stupid do these supporters think we are? I've always been of the opinion that people show us who they are all, all the time (paraphrase of Maya Angelous of of course). Believe what people show you. If you hear hoofbeats think horses.. Anyone supporting this deeply disturbed individual has no relevant or reasonable excuse and is deeply suspicious.

Sickening, yet illustrative of how completely people tend to ignore all safeguarding when trans/lgbt is concerned. Hugely concerning. Thanks JL for collating all of that.

Excuse me whilst I throw up. I am so disgusted that fetishes are being pandered to. I truly believe Transsexual people have been damaged by these interlopers and opportunists who bring with them a endless list of predilections and desires 🤢 and social media is full of enablers and panderers. Thank you for the article. I wish I could say I was shocked however nothing much is a surprise these days. It doesn’t mean it’s not abhorrent of course.

A tough read, and must have been hard work digging through years of shit ☹️. Green Party and LibDems were clearly being used to achieve mainstream acceptance, even respectability, of these horrible people and make it impossible to challenge them or build safeguards. What are they going to try next?

Also, is it just me or do all of these guys look really, really soap-shy?

Disgusting but appreciate the effort you have put in to compiling and presenting this information. You have a strong stomach and some determination to be able to do this. Thank you.

Oh dear God, it’s worse than I imagined, I feel sick. However, I thank you for shining a light on these dark things. Although I feel sick, my resolve is strengthened. ENOUGH of this shit, I am not a parent (a mad Aunty if that counts!) but by God we need to fight for the children , that’s what these perverts are after, our babies. No, somehow we must stop them, where do I start???

This is... I have no words. Seriously disturbing.

I have sent this story to all my friends, some of whom are already GC and some completely clueless. I really do hope that this will be a defining moment for many, as it should. Thank you for your research; must have been difficult delving into all this. Reading it was disturbing enough. Still, this was vital and am thankful you wrote about it.

Wow, this really is an incredible piece of work to pick through the terrible breadcrumbs left by these reprobates. You’re right, exposing this is about recognising the predatory practises of these people close to someone who has been trying their hardest to get into power. The reddit thing really really disturbed me but I don’t know why I’d be surprised. But all the fetish stuff it makes my skin crawl to think about these people dressed as little girls. Eww. It’s nice that the weirdos have found each other because by the look of them I canny think who else would be shagging them but hey that’s the internet for you. Anyway great piece, all credit to you! I forwarded it to a few friends who were horrified. Stuff like this is why I subscribe x

I just read this article today, coming from the article about Reddit going on strike and... holy cow!

My stomach just can’t take it.

Thanks a lot for taking the time to write this detailed article with all its stakeholders.

I hope that what happens now on Reddit will be the wake up call for all the progressist people who refuse any critics to the trans movement.

Jesus wept, this is beyond horrific. I mean..... Thanks for taking the time to compile this information. A difficult read but so important.

It feels very weird to “heart” this article. The entire thing is repulsive, and I’m so grateful to the person or people that put in such a massive amount of work to piece this together. It is this on this kind of work that any hope that common sense will eventually prevail rests.

thank you for sharing this - it's a mammoth piece of work! I've just shared it with my friend who had the whole GC chat on Saturday and he's reeling from it but is on a total mission to find out more.
