More Lies at Let Women Speak

One thing trans activists like to do is mock the supposed hysteria of feminists and any talk of males posing a danger to women when in bathrooms, changing rooms, rape crisis groups, refuges, prisons etc etc. They say we 'weaponise' these fears, these traumas. This is very popular tactic and highly entertaining to them and their simpleton compadre. 

And so it goes that we are in a delusional state, arrogantly assuming we have some allure and simultaneously becoming the real danger. 

Posie Parker, or Kelly-Jay Keen's Speaker's Corner event #LetWomenSpeak in Brighton has caused numerous skirmishes. 

From the internecine clash between feminists to the desperate, flagrant scrambling of trans activists as they try to spin the story. 

Like maniac proselytisers with added shamelessness, they tweeted day and night, making wild claims, using diversions and embellishments.

Perhaps it's the relentless bad news they've had lately, but they were determined to ensure the public believed it was those dastardly feminists throwing pink and blue smoke grenades. 

It was us screaming abuse, shouting at babies with potentially proto - fash sympathies, being violent etc etc et-fucking-cetera.  

But this is extended to something pretty grim and I cannot in good faith be flippant or snarky about it. 

Someone was sexually assaulted. 

This is very serious, and my solidarity goes out to the victim of this, wherever they stand and whatever they think of me. I hope you are OK, treated well by the rozzers and get some justice. 

On hearing of this, the TRAs, immediately, set about laying blame on feminists, claiming it was our side harbouring the creep. I heard a lot about it being the fault of gender critical men, or maniac women deciding to grope the genital area of someone presenting as a woman. 

Spooky Aidan (She/They/Ze/Zem) sets the scene:

I can't say I thought it particularly likely it was someone from the infinitely gentler, more adult GC side, but I was pretty sure on one thing - the offender might have any politics, but it's a man.

That's, kind of, the focal point for me here - males pose the overwhelming risk of sexual and other violent crime. It's why we need safe spaces away from them sometimes. 

So, twitter erupted with unleashed speculation, wild generalisations and condemnation. You could almost hear the thud of bedroom doors slamming shut. 

Then, Reclaim Brighton Pride jerks who spent the weeks leading up to the event trying to invoke violence, lied and whined about 'violence' against them. 

Behold the misogyny and ignorance. Ashleigh feels recognising sex and wanting same sex spaces was always going to lead to genital inspectors, the TRA version of the Red Under the Bed

It even became a kind of lore, a conspiracy theory: 

There's no evidence that can persuade someone out of a faith-based belief. Whether he sympathised with us (he didn't) or them (only on the critical points of women-should-shut-up, I expect) I have seen no footage of him abusing trans rights supporters. 

And let's for a minute appreciate this young boy, with his angry pensioner meme pseudonym:

In reality, the black bloc kiddies numbered maybe five, so he's either hilariously misinformed or directly lying. 

I quickly want to divert to the whole spectre of alleged antifascists (if they even mean that when branding themselves as Antifa) and what a strange incarnation it is. 

Clearly someone needs to explain to them, loitering like NPCs imitating counter-parking bollards isn't 'an action'. 

Brighton TRAntifa - Out in force

Clinging to your flag like a sorrowful homage to a useless penis, stamping it to protest arrests, it's just embarrassing. 

Ye shall not farce - flagpole goes stamp

It was a tragic grasp at looking menacing and righteous. Five, shaky mascots, often huddling together. The effect was... Shit. One of po-faced tarts. Ultimately the shell suits, the facial hair, bothered me considerably more.

Still, hilariously inept as they were, saying they're not Antifa doesn't fly. In the words of Eminem, they are whatever they said they are. Self ID, innit. 

And, in the photos below, he looks pretty at home with the trans activists, arguing with SFW stewards and attendees:


Penis Envy - Inadequate Men

But back to the arrest for sexual assault. This is the man accused:

Putting the sectarian shit aside a mo, it  appears to me he was a rambling, random drunk, delighted to stumble upon the opportunity to join a gobby rabble. Day drinking can do this to a person. 

Aja / @JocastaMoney has a pretty comprehensive thread here. It's well worth reading, especially given her video evidence. 

I could make this sound like an obvious case of TRA guilt, but I'll be honest - I doubt he gives a flying fuck about trans rights, but he definitely seems to have found the better camaraderie within the be-penised gaggle.

As if more evidence were needed of their tacit approval of, or active participation in, anti-woman, anti-lesbian sentiment, we could always watch him shouting 'you have penis envy!' at lesbians, while surrounded by his briefly bonded brethren, who did exactly fuck all to pull him up on it. 

To me, this suggests a firm alliance over an integral feature of this fraternity - instinctive opposition to women, dislike of feminists and an intolerance for those of us who raise their voices. Aja documents his behaviour in this thread:

"I was close by when he attacked someone, I thought he ran up & kicked a man but I think he ran up & grabbed his genitals.

I was looking the other way but maybe my body cam picked it up. If so I'll pass it on to the police"

Genuinely frightening information followed - as, upon arrest, it was found he had a bag full of knives. 

And then, lately, it's been a bit quiet

So, within less than a week it was clear that:

* That the smoke grenades had indisputably come from the trans activist side. 

* Snarly-Cray, the journalist and Labour Party advisor guilty of a lazy (s)hit piece disguised as a report, had shouted at a baby. But identifying her was essentially doxing:

It was so bleak a befuddled Adrian Comerford had to step up and justify it:

* A woman among the TRAs had chucked a massive tub of glitter at a black, dreaded woman after calling her over 'I just want to talk to you'. 

And This:

The woman who claimed later to have been assaulted by a man, was a bit free with her own hands prior. All these clips are from One Man Reporter, which you can see here

The older clips on previous blog are from Andy Ngo, I think. 

(Above, the original shots from "Let Women Speak" said the dANgERoUS FASCisTS, which documented the disparity in Denise's story and the video footage) 

I have since found these, of the same altercation from a different angle :

TRA with bright red barnet (Denise) spots someone or something in the crowd 

She starts shouting 

It appears the steward with black hair is the focus of her ire

Red Barnet / Denise marches over

Through the struggle between the police and TRAs as they try to prevent the arrest:

Confrontation begins

Appears Red Barnet / Denise takes a lunge at the steward 

A struggle ensues

Notably, it appears that the steward is not invested in this scrap and swiftly moves on.

Still, taking to Twitter, Shirty Denise was still jabbing fingers and launching damning attacks:

I'm not getting into all of this again, but far right politics are fundamentally incompatible with gender critical values, normally beginning at the start over the propagation of gender norms. 

Thus, a few may have chosen our side on this occasion, but our side is not with them and they are not welcome. The problem is, it's a public space and anyone can attend and film. 

The initial reports were confusing, first claiming: “A woman and two men were arrested; one on suspicion of assault, one on suspicion of obstructing a police officer and one on suspicion of sexual assault by touching.” 

This was later amended to three men:

This confusion all stems from the fact it was a so-called transwoman, who, had presumably either quickly detransitioned or had no gender recognition certificate (GRC). 

Regarding the arrest, it emerged later on he had form for anti-Israel graffiti. The Rabbi's account below, called this antisemitic graffiti. Leaving aside the differences between anti Israel and antisemitism, I think Philip Pullman's reply is worthy of note. 

To which sir Phil countered:

For Phil, it doesn't really matter what this person was doing or had done, the normal sharing of press photos of his arrest (for lobbing smoke grenades at us) was a malicious and ideological move, intended to bring shame upon all trans people. 

When people become a sacred caste, bad things happen, Phil. And I didn't think I'd need to explain that to anyone again. 

Finally, Katy Montgomerie feigned more moral outrage, blessing us with this particularly rough version of Karl Popper's The Paradox of Tolerance:

Tragically (for Katy, we aren't talking about an imaginative person, here) he has numerous versions of this. And coincidentally, I have a pre-prepared reply:

So that's your lot, you lucky people. 

Just remember, they tell lies. A lot of lies.
