Excellent episode. Wish I’d caught it live, Sarah was magnificent. I’ve donated and have shared the appeal too. You guys just get better and better each week, have to say I really look forward to your discussions of the week’s events. This week has been hard, it has felt hopeless at times, particularly in Scotland, but you all keep me going. Thank you for that.
This is a new and nasty thing now. Trying to conflate so-called 'transphobia' with anti-semitism. Fresh from success with Jeremy Corbyn (probably one of the least anti-semitic politicians in the UK), it's become an easy way to destroy people's reputations. It's also vilely anti-semitic in and of itself to exploit a genuine threat to Jewish people by deploying it dishonestly against innocent people.
Jeremy Corbyn’s denial of anti-semitism from the ‘progressive’ left, is all the proof I need that he is either deaf and blind to this form of racism, for reasons best known to himself. Or, he is in fact an anti-Semite.
David Baddiel’s new book ‘the Jews don’t count’ explores why Jews are not considered oppressed by ‘progressives.’ The British left has allowed itself to be subsumed into batshit American, cultural imperialism caused by their inability to confront their own history, namely the state sponsored enslavement and of black people. That, combined with the other toxic American import ‘Queer Theory.’ Have made the left unelectable, it’s all part of the same problem. It’s completely fucking depressing! https://www.the-tls.co.uk/articles/jews-dont-count-david-baddiel-tls-books-extract/
Totally disagree. JC destroyed his own reputation because he is antisemitic. People like him embolden other antisemites to come out into the open. Him and his ilk have a lot in common with transactivism - and none of it good!
JC's only mistake was not to sue the living daylights out of everyone who ever accused him of anti-semitism. There is literally zero evidence of it when you examine the actual facts, and I am glad SP is not taking it lying down. Anyone who was seriously, or even remotely concerned with anti-semitism would have been turning their guns on the Tory party where anti-semitism is in fact rife, which only goes to prove what the motives of those attacking Corbyn were. It is a mirror image of what is now happening viz 'transphobia'. Everyone running scared from the least possibility that they might be accused. A terrible precedent was set in his case (and sad to say JK Rowling was with the mob on that occasion, though I have and will defend her against accusations of transphobia, nevertheless). This has emboldened the likes of that little shit Paisely and all the other false actors who have realised that the mere mention of this term, much like 'transphobe', is enough to take down anyone they choose. And now we have a sort unholy conflation of both terms whose impact is exponential for the victims.
I asked Paisley & another person on Twitter for evidence that Cherry is a transphobe supporting a "holocaust denier" (I had read the screenshots - and no, they don't say or show anything like what he claimed).
AN Other (can't remember their name) sent me the screenshots, again. I said I'd read them. They blocked me. That sounds convincing, eh?
Paisley said it wasn't his job to spoon feed me, and that I should read the thread - which I'd read. He's a patronising git to women, isn't he? I had never heard of him.
Excellent episode. Sounds like my experience with twitter appeal system. A spiral of automated madness. Donated to the crowdfunder. I only wish it was more. These fuckers say the shit they do because they know how much it costs to stop them. Justice my arse. Go Sarah!!
And I wrote down my side of the story. It is only 22 pages long (it was a long story that could not be cut short) and I sent it to many people (family, friends, medical specialists, support groups for survivors of sexual abuse, Facebook women’s groups, politicians, media, crimestoppers [not]), but everyone was too busy to read it.
If nobody reads it, nobody can know who did this to me and stop them from doing it to others – maybe your own family.
I tried to tell my own mother, but she would not believe me – she even laughed at me.
I tried to tell sisters, Aunts, cousins, but none would listen.
I tried to tell the Police, but they were too busy fighting real crime – like people not wearing face masks.
I tried to tell the Australian media, but they were too busy reporting on fires - lit by the men who rape us; not even ABC women reporters like Leigh Sales, Virginia Trioli or Pamela Medlan would listen.
I tried to tell ComHWA (Consumers of Mental Health WA) a support group for people with mental health problems (often survivors of violent sex crimes) but they were too busy listening to the lies being fed to them by those who commit sex crimes against me and other women and girls.
I tried to tell Blue Knot Foundation (it used to be called Incest Survivors Association) but, like its name change, it no longer listens to the stories of victims; it too has been captured by the lies told by the offenders.
I tried to tell my psychologist, but he was too busy telling me his own story.
I can’t tell my doctor because her appointment times are not long enough to hear my story.
Everyone is too busy believing the lies fed to them by the men who did this to me and do it to other women and girls.
Now, again, I am frightened because I know he will hunt me down and kill me (to stop me from asking people to hear my side of the story) and he knows nobody will stop him.
So, even if the cause of death on my death certificate is wrong – my name will spell the truth.

I thought she was utterly inspiring in this video chat. May I sincerely wish her the very best of luck in this much-needed endeavour...
'Our anger makes us stronger". Absolutely.
Great stuff everyone1
Two definitions of transphobia:
1. Prejudice against trans people.
2. Saying something that trans activists and their allies don't like. Especially if it's the truth.
I asked Paisley & another person on Twitter for evidence that Cherry is a transphobe supporting a "holocaust denier" (I had read the screenshots - and no, they don't say or show anything like what he claimed).
AN Other (can't remember their name) sent me the screenshots, again. I said I'd read them. They blocked me. That sounds convincing, eh?
Paisley said it wasn't his job to spoon feed me, and that I should read the thread - which I'd read. He's a patronising git to women, isn't he? I had never heard of him.
it's quite hilarious how people are taking him seriously.
Brilliant mess, thank you all as ever 🙏
Off to donate to Sarah's v necessary fund....that Paisley bastard blocked me early on he’s a right brain-dead misogynist stinker
Oh loved the Skylar interview btw. I’ll say it here as I can’t say it there 😉

For a moment I thought our tolerant pals had got at it!

MY NAME IS CHANGED TO: “DIED BY RAPE”
I was going to change it to: ‘Rape Survivor’
And I wrote down my side of the story.
