Is this woman a transphobe?

[Border Reiver]

I can and will advocate it any way I choose Mr Reiver.

If you advocate for your view on Twitter and if they class it as hateful, you may lose the right to advocate your view there. That is the essence of this thread. Their platform, their rules.

 

[Border Reiver]

I reject it is hateful.

You do not own the platform. They do. They have rules. They win.

 

[Athos]

I suspect that concludes our conversation. I have no more to add that will convince you. You are entitled to your opinion as I am to mine.

I'm open to being convinced, it's just that, to date, you've not made a compelling argument. But, if you have nothing else, then I agree that there's probably little else to say (given your inability to empathise with those who disagree).

I’m not on Twitter so I don’t really know or care about that. And I don’t really care how often men like you try and close down the debate using that tactic elsewhere either. Because women can and will continue to discuss it. Often behind your backs

Do you accept that an intact male with a GRC has legal rights to enter most women only spaces and denial of opposition to her rights could be a civil or criminall matter?

I'm done.

As I said earlier, what I do find interesting is the degree this divisive and authoritarian liberal/left wing agenda has been allowed to dominate society and social media. But other people aren’t keen to discuss that or how/why it has occurred.

Anyway, this has been a splendid example of it from Mr Border Reiver so maybe that’s enough for now.

They may discuss as they wish. This thread is about why Twitter bans some matters as unlawful hate speech. It is not about my view or yours.

And then those who shouted down the women are surprised when their backlash arrives.

Perhaps you could answer the question about current rights of transgender persons.

It is though. It’s asking if we think the banned poster is a transphobe

You're done though.

Bit of Sealioning going on here after the four? promises that you've "done"?

They clearly don't know what sealioning is, anyway.

 

[Border Reiver]

I was referring to Athos. Try making a constructive comment for a change.

 

[two sheds]

I was referring to Athos. Try man by a constructive comment food a change.

I'm done

 

[Santino]

I will NOT try man a constructive comment food a change. How dare you?

 

[Santino]

As if I would EVER try man a constructive comment, whether food a change or not. The very idea.

I repeatedly asked you to demonstrate where this took place and you were unable to.

Onto ignore for repeated abusive contentless posts.

 

[Santino]

I think you're getting it confused with gaslighting.

 

[Border Reiver]

I'm done

Onto ignore with the next pointless comment.

Define "transphobe". There is no clear definition.

 

[kabbes]

Border is going to be left only with people who are not civil but also not not civil, who do not ask questions or make objections or arguments and who only answer the specific questions he asks.

And then he will be done.

 

[bimble]

((Everyone whose getting ignored by this poster)) . Hope you all recover ok from the devastating news.

 

[Santino]

If I'm on Ignore then it's surely time to report them for being a returning banned poster.

 

[Athos]

Likes sealions and has little regard for women's thoughts and feelings? Border Reiver is Terry Nutkins!

 

[Border Reiver]

The Twitter ban does not mention transphobia.

I try not to use the terms TERF or transphobia because they are toxic.

Onto ignore.

Border Reiver's law of internet forums says that any new poster will soon be identified as a troll, shill , sock, or new ID for an old member.
