@vitt2tsnoc Back in 2017 I was staying in a premier inn on my own and in the middle of the night security let a drunk guy into my room cos he was sleeping outside my door saying it was his room. Thankfully he just came in and passed out on sofa and I left to get security to remove him…
so if a mass shooter hid in a hospital in America and the government bombed the entire hospital in order to kill them but also killed every innocent child, man and women in the hospital in process, everyone would say the response was correct and they would support them ?
There’s also the interesting question of whether you can have a war if one side doesn’t have an airforce; navy; standing army; electricity; food; or water; and is a bunch of kids
The Peter Bone case is another reminder that since 2019, there have been more Tory MPs suspended for sexual misconduct than voters convicted of ID fraud
can safely say that, as a cis woman, i have never ever felt threatened by or unsafe around a trans women. i do, however, feel unsafe around men most days! hope this helps :)
Outside of everything I want men to please exercise empathy today, this is such a triggering topic for women. It's a reminder that regardless of age, we aren't safe.
Brand blacklisting women after sleeping with them.
Fox degrading a woman journalist by saying he wouldn't have sex with her.
A girl in Croydon stabbed for turning down a man's flowers.
The underside of patriarchal desire is revulsion, violence and hate
If you work for GB News, are one of the presenters, one of the paid guests or work within the many layers of channel execs down to floor runners you are working at an organisation that is institutional misogynistic and very very dangerous. The channel last night put the life of their “target” in danger. All for the clicks. Since the murder of Joe Cox it has been abundantly clear that the hate generated for clicks is not understood as that by large sections of the public. They act on signal. Many targeting those they have been groomed to hate. GB News has a litany of gaffs, outright-falsehood and regularly platforms conspiracy theorists. But what happened last night was signed off by a lot of people. All of whom are culpable. I have very little faith in @Ofcom but I have hope the considerable public outcry may put stronger pressure on them than usual.
Two powerful men in their 40s sat on live TV laughing at a woman they both hate, reducing her to “who’d want to shag that?”
She was not on the programme. Or a celebrity.
They were talking about a political journalist in her 20s.
This is not widening debate: it is misogyny.
Translation:
Former Sun writer facing countless, serious sexual allegations who inexplicably remains in his job and on air, will be discussing whether Carol Vorderman should lose her job for telling people the truth about right wing corruption.
GB News is foreign funded propaganda channel, presented by a motley crew of conspiracy theorists, conmen, and useful tools for the architects and beneficiaries of disaster capitalism.
If you’re not a billionaire and you’re nodding along to idiots spouting inane, unscientific, archaic bullshit then you’re willingly oiling yourself and bending over the barrel. It’s dimly lit television for the easily conned.
Like the Conservative government, it’s just another fucking con designed to capitalise on people’s misery, bigotry, racism, reactionary opinions, xenophobia, desperation, lack of political education and gullibility.
Like the government, the presenters and owners are rich and living a life free of worry. There’s not even the worry of serious allegations, they can make them go away with their connections in the press or SLAPPs to try to silence real journalists and critics with notable online platforms but far less money. Because, freedom of speech.
A rational, intelligent and logical person wouldn’t even have to scratch the surface before having serious concerns about GB News. It’s like shit right wing performance art.
Finally, like the government, there is no real justice, accountability or any consequences because, money and status.
This is how it works.
