Okay sorry if this offends any UK posters here but this made me so angry.. What xenophobic nonsense. I don't need to "wind my neck in", I can think for myself and I can see the dangers of the modern trans ideology. Implying Irish women can't think for themselves. And I'm sure outside of your Twitter bubble, you'll find many women feel the same as me.
And the Brexit land comment is baffling. This idiot then goes on to say that they follow the "feminism ideals" of American cis women". So.... the UK is Brexit land but the US isn't Trump land? Okay then. I mean it's not like the US has ever been the cause of any problems ever... But hey, be selective on judging a country's population by its politics to suit your argument. The stupidity of these idiots is staggering
Gender critical feminism = colonial oppressive ideology
Well, it makes a change from calling gender critical feminists, men hating, misandrist, homophobic, transphobic, racist, privileged, terf, Karen,
witch etc. Not sure where it leaves the likes of Alison Bailey for example. ”White adjacent“, and therefore racist to channel Titania McGrath, perhaps.
Flinging baseless insults is the core rhetorical device of the TRA side of the aisle. Attempting to shame Irish gender critics by accusing them of some sort of anti nationalistic betrayal, that’s a bit funny. I’m assuming the tweeter is too young and / or ignorant to remember the history of sectarianism in Ireland (north and south) to fling that particular baggage around.
Notwithstanding the irrationality of being keen to throw Irish women’s hard won rights away just to stick it to the Terfy colonial English, a significant proportion of which are only vaguely aware of what happens in Ireland at the best of times.
No offence to my Irish cousins, both literal and figurative. Back in the nineties, Irish history in my area was a brief month-long sojourn before resuming studying the interwar period between the World Wars, and the news was the odd BBC bulletin about marches and counter marches and IRA car bombs in the Square Mile. Younger friends and relatives since have had similar experiences but without the news reports.
