This type of misrepresentation helps no one. And it trivialises genuine transphobia, of which there is plenty.

I think I'm going to go back to the scientific side of issues because I find people/events so confusing right now. I feel I'm spending too much time trying to understand what's going on and still getting it wrong. I need a break from it all.

Yeah, classical abuser tactic - they made me do it. It's funny how trans activists never direct their anger at men, only at women who seek to address their own marginalisation.

Anyway, thank you to the violent trans activists for showing why we need events like FiLiA's.

Today I saw the Palestinian flag described as the Hamas flag and the Israeli flag described as the genocide flag. Sometimes it's very difficult to retain just a little hope.

Is that because no one vandalised the venue and intimidated attendees?

Male violence and intimidation at its most obvious, justifying the need for the conference in the first place. Thank you, guys!

It's so predictable but I still find it shocking occasionally. They're not remotely defending women, in case people were still in doubt.

So far, so formulaic. They sure like their narratives.

Anti-feminist women/people targeting left-wing women.

There's a good reason for banning videos and photos at FiLia events so the fact that there's video footage tells us that someone was seriously irresponsible. I hope everyone managed/manages to remain safe.

I am *shocked* to read that the Male Allies Challenging Sexism event wasn't targeted by TRAs, even though they make the same arguments when it comes to gender ID ideology.

I've just had a quick look on xcancel and yeah, the usual suspects making it clear they're anti-feminists. You could put up some of the stunts and ask "TRAs or Ultras?", and it would be hard to tell.

I'm actually glad it's not just me. I'm loving Pips and I'll give crosswords a go to make up for it.

The toxicity of Ultras is why I don't regret leaving X. There's never any peace with them constantly stirring the hornet's nests.
