The best thing about Glinner's piss-poor statement is that it calls for someone to take his place; yes, by all means, please replace him with another abject failure who succeeds only at raising enormous sums of money for trans charities

"currently fashionable gender ideology" is the bit that I like. He really does think that in years to come this will be seen as an aberration and he will be looked on as some sort of hero for right thinking people, oblivious to the sound of progress marching on without him

QuoteI must admit I also rather naively hoped a few more high profile people might join in and help make those like myself and the 'gender critical' women and trans people I support feel less isolated. That never happened

Yeah, that's the part where most normal people would reflect, and use a bit of self awareness, you know, "have I fucked up here?". But we're dealing with the Man Who Can Never Fuck Up.

And yet again, it's a classic right-wing argument he's using - Richard Littlejohn loves to use phrases like 'fashionably gay' to imply that it's all just a touch of trendy madness and that good old common sense will prevail. That's the side Glinner's on now, whether he realises or not.

He's basically become the bishop who gets the holy stone shoved up his arse, ranting about bearded lefties in the media being the real enemy.

Literally in fact. The other day he said that young girls don't identify as straight because they think being straight is boring

Between this and the Caster Semenya thing it's increasingly clear that terfs are a front for a whole range of archaic, bigoted views.

His tactic of citing one or two people (of certain communities etc) who agree with him and pretending there aren't loads and loads of others who don't is simply infuriating.

The depressing thing is that Linehan probably hasn't written anything that funny since 2010, and that's being generous.

Ferris

Imagine it. He'd log onto twitter "just for a sec", you know. To have a look. Got to keep current. Stay up to date with all the goings on.

...oh, what's this? Must not have unfollowed all the gender critical people I follow. I thought I had. There's always one you forget isn't there! Let's see. Oh, a new thread. I shouldn't read it. Well, maybe I'll read the first one and a few of the replies. You know, to stay informed. I don't have to comment on it. No one will know. It's fine to read.

...ugh. I don't agree with that. I think it'd be better to defer to someone I agree with. Won't say anything though, I promised. Have to stay strong. It's a shame to let my opinion go to waste though - I could really have a passive aggressive jab there on this topic.

...well, I'll type it out, but I won't send it. That'll feel just as good. Hmm but will anyone see that? Perhaps I'll just AHHHH FUCK IT TIME TO POST - HAVE THIS YOU SHITTER! WEREN'T EXPECTING LINNER TO GIVE YOU A CHINNER RIGHT UP YOUR CHICKEN DINNER! YESSSS MANN!!! OWNED BY THE G-LIN ONCE AGAIN!!

...and then I imagine him high on his own righteous toots for a minute or so, before coming to and realizing what he's done.

That tweet must have been the last straw for somebody in his life.

I don't know why I keep opening this thread as I have nothing to add other than "this man is the saddest most pathetic cunt ever"

Feel as if I just have to say that once every couple of days.

HOW did this man make Father Ted.

What does Arthur Matthews think of it all this?

It is one of those bulletproof defences that idiots use as a shield. "I suppose you know more about trans issues than an actual trans person do you?"

Fucking hell, when you lot said he wouldn't make it to Tuesday I thought it was exaggeration for comic effect. Whoever has the biggest stake in him stopping this madness must be headbutting their desk.

He's also posted a clip of Dave Chappelle, doing a bit about Rachel Dolezal. Terfs do love to go on about Rachel Dolezal. Passive aggressive maniac.

ALAN: I like to say "God created Adam and Eve, he didn't create Adam and Steve.

*ARTHUR MATTHEWS SHIFTS UNCOMFORTABLY*

LINEHAN: *THRASHES AROUND WILDLY* Good for you, Alan! Good for you! Somebody finally had the guts to stand up and say it! They come over here, after our jobs and our women, fecking trannies!

JED: It's not the transsexuals, it's the gays he's after.

ALAN: I'm not after the gays! I'm not homophobic! I'm homosceptic!

LINEHAN: I don't care so long as I can have a go at the trannies! They invented gayness!

I can't find the post now, but did someone upthread say Charlie Brooker is (or perhaps was) a friend of Glinner's, and may have had words with him over this? Because I logged into Twitter today and was most surprised to see his friend and frequent collaborator Gia Milinovich has come over all TERFy and Glinneriffic. Sad to see from a so-called feminist (I went off her husband, Tim Hunt apologist Professor Brian Cox, years ago, so maybe not all that surprising). Oh well, time for another unfollow...

I've also been surprised to see a few alleged feminists who would previously have baulked at the "you're not a real woman until you've had a child" idea, but who are now using that very same argument to protest that transwomen aren't real women, because it now suits them to define a woman by her reproductive capabilities.

I think another Twitter clearout may be in order...
