Jesus. That’s a great piece of work to bring that all together. Powerful and utterly depressing in one go. I’m so angry.

Thank you for putting this together. Shitter is run by horrifying misogynists.

Thank you for putting this information together. They won't silence us. Our voices are multiplying.

Facebook is just as bad. I've been banned not only for trans things but for things my husband said I have the screenshots. Hell, I'm currently banned now with no reason given and no way to challenge it. So I print out little scrolls of my message and put them in waterproof tubes and leave them in public. To hell with big tech!

This is superb work. It shows the issue so clearly and yet it’s also sad to see how low Twitter has sunk. It used to be something good.

Yes... It's actually a very important piece of 'research'. When we see this collection as a single list - and there are clearly many, many more - then it is extremely sobering. Not to mentioned disturbing...

Yeah I think you must be right. It’s probably that I didn’t notice the seedy side of it before.

I used to quite enjoy pressing people to answer Helen's question, of an evening. Then I realised how angry Twitter was making me and I got the hell off there. We shouldn't be surprised by Twitter's behaviour. It'll be the last place to change once the fight against this nonsense is over.

Twitter is positively propagating hatred towards *anyone* who refuses to kowtow to trans ideology - be they women, men or trans people who see the misogyny and dare to name it

They are now so childishly and callously confident in their propagandist processes that they do not even bother to hide their oppressive misogyny any more. It's just hatred of women in plain sight.

In response to Reddit banning factual, reality based posts by women who speak up against transology, a new site has opened up. A site run by women.

https://www.ovarit.com/

https://twitter.com/WomenAreOvarit - you have to contact them in DM from Twitter, Spinster or Saidit to request an invitation code. I've just done that, will see how it goes :)

A good starter list! What was Karen Davis’ last tweet before they tossed her off? Her handle was: Yea_karen53

Thank you! I can use excerpts in comments under articles in "The Times" etc. Many people are genuinely unaware of capricious and misogynist censorship by "mediators" on Twitter.

I find it interesting that Jack twat has come out and said threats of violoncello automatically results on a ban - this is blatantly not true given the vitriol and daily yap (from MRA\TRA\incels and so on) that women are going to get raped, murdered seems to be green lit all the way and no dice punishments are handed out, but as woman - apologies a uterus havers - and I mention sex is real or if I have the temerity to challenge the tsunami of vulgarity and threats I run the risk of a ban. This is of course coercion in that I am edited before I get my fingers on the keyboard because overtly or subliminally I don’t really want to get banned - that’s the power of jack. And whilst I detest trump I don’t agree he should have been banned - if jack has the power to cherry pick who uses his platform it will result in men/handmaidens facilitating the patriarchy and kids being groomed. It’s already a cesspit and women and allies work hard to moderate the hideous people who seem to be above responsibility when it comes to their tweets.

“Violoncello” is one of the best auto corrects ever seen. 😀 good post btw.

Thanks. All my own sausage fingers work. Strange autocorrect 😆

Thank you, Graham. These posts must be kept as a testimony to how easily authoritarianism spread. When this insanity is over, people will read them in astonishment

Does anyone know ho Meghan Murphy is doing with her crowdfunding appeal against Twitter? https://www.meghanmurphylawsuit.com/ does not give any indication of the amount raised. It does mention a petition to get her reinstated (emoticon "roll eyes" and "hands together in prayer": https://www.change.org/p/twitter-re-instate-meghan-murphy

Please sign and share? Thank you!

I thought she lost the lawsuit some time ago? Unless she's trying again? Also, I think the petition is quite an old one now, but don't quote me on that.

She didn't specify her target. Anyway the "moderation" aka censorship of politically sensitive views (but NOT of real incitement to violence!) is a political issue now, and rightly so. We need a solution to the world-wide dissemination of violent rhetoric from disturbed and cowardly individuals and targeted single-issue groups. This is, of course, not a "political" question at all. It is a question of restraint in the use of language - always a problem! The search engines of the moderators are utterly defective because they search for single words without taking note of the context. This is an area which I am just about to tackle in my submission to the Gov consultation on Free Speech. Deadline end of Jan, I think.

The Department of Justice should step in.
