The instigators
Marion doesn’t “harass and intimidate” trans people. Also, she’s a woman, and thus at a physical disadvantage compared to men like India Willoughby. This claim of intimidation, from a man talking about a woman, is the usual gaslighting bullshit that’s so central to this evil berserk reverse-everything stupid ideology.
India Willoughby has me blocked, which, given the way I’m feeling at the moment, is probably just as well for the sake of my Twitter account’s future existence.
Not to mention that language of “chasing after” – she tweeted, she didn’t chase. And calling a man a man! Wow…what?
We now live in upside-down world.

It was the “chasing after” and “harass” that had me racing to Willoughby’s account to demand evidence and to find that I’m blocked.
He has me blocked now too, so the tweets don’t display properly. The gist is there though.
So he’s perfectly fine with women being harrassed, recieving rape threats, and death threats then? What refreshing candor and clarity from a TA. No reason to listen to anything he has to say then. Good reason to be reported, too.
It’s strange how trans activists impute all of these evil intents and motives into the statements of feminists defending the sex based rights of women and girls, claiming that they fairly drip with transphobia, and the desire to harm, murder, and exterminate trans people. Yet when asked to produce evidence for these claims, to point out exactly where the transphobia is in their writings, they cannot, but tell us it’s there nonetheless. If they had examples of feminists telling their opponents to die in a grease fire, or choke on dicks, or proposing to hunt down or bash in the teeth of trans activists or trans identified people, they would post them, over and over again. They would be a most powerful weapon in their claims to oppression and victimhood. In this case, absence of evidence is evidence of absence. If they had an argument, they would use it. It is very telling that the alleged “threats” and “harm” contained in the writings and utterances of gender critical feminists require the use of a trans-exclusive, magical, secret decoder ring in order to be seen.
In contrast, trans activist threats to harm, murder and exterminate women whom they consider to be their opponents is quite clear. They are sometimes expressed anonymously, but still in the open, unpunished by social media platforms which are often speedy and unforgiving in the removal of women’s posts, and accounts, that simply describe reality, but threaten nobody.
The trans activist mantra of “NO DEBATE” is brandished as a noble and principled refusal to countenance any discussion with unspeakably evil people, but in reality it is a tacit admission of their inability to argue their cause. If they had a case, they would make it. They would not need the lies, the threats, and the commanding height of institutional capture to dictate the terms of our surrender and compliance. They have certainly taken to heart the idea that truth and reality is simply that which is arbitrarily imposed by those in power. As long as they’re the ones doing the imposing, then all is right with the world. It’s ironic that they now insist that their reality really is real, falling back on claims of being “scientific” or “true” that their intellectual ancestors claimed were illusory, because they need some sort of justification and authority with which to butress their position of power.
Unfortunately, naked, ugly power is all they’ve really got going for them. The more people who see women prosecuted for simply describing reality, the sinister pursuit of a woman for posting images of RIBBONS, the unevidenced equation of defending women’s rights as the equivalent of racism, anti-semitism, and nazism, the more obvious it will be that this ideology is delusional, and the worse it will be for reputations of those wielding and directing the powers being abused at its bidding.
If trans activists had had truth and justice on their side, it would not have had to turn out this way. Trans activists would have had greater numbers of willing allies, instead of people suddenly discovering the need to defend themselves against a force that operated behind the scenes to consolidate and exersize its unearned and disproportionate power and influence to bend the law to its will. What other “rights” movement has ever felt the need to act this way? This is what comes when you refuse good faith political engagement, and sneeringly tell people to “educate yourself.” We do just that.

Well, not only perfectly fine, but damn near necessary to keep women in their place you see. It’s functional to threaten and harass women so they stop speaking up. Marion Millar is being made an example for women who reject the idea tht traanswomen are women, and it doesn’t really matter if she had called Paisley a misguided nice guy. No little squeak can get by, and any resistance would have justified the Scots Police bearing the weight of the state on her. Now how many women with children will think twice about tweeting in their defense knowing that the social servicees would be happy to step in and care for their kids while they sit in jail?
How many professional skeptics will be able to keep a blind eye to this and say “but it’s science!” regarding trans individuals (and I am thinking of a few fellow members of the MN Atheists and a skepchick or two here) and how many will go on about white as opposed intersectional feminists to continue supporting the poor oppressed minority when such meanies as Marion Millar won’t just let anyone be who they really are?
Are the transgenderists cornered and being the most dangerous animal? It looks like it to me. They can see with the coscious uncoupling with Stonewall UK that many companies and universities are doing, and are lashing out with the vehemence they have.
