The closest thing they've had to progress is banning guys with usernames like Judenjager1488, and some of them still slip through the cracks.

There's this creep who kept making accounts to send rape and death threats to a local activist, and I'd report him and he'd get suspended, but for like five minutes because his account would be back up by the time I got the notice.

I got suspended for mockingly repeating what a literal Neo Nazi said back to him. The Neo Nazi was not suspended. :discourse:

Can you explain what happened there? I used to follow Lisa Muggeridge on twitter who seemed like not a terrible person and then she took a deep dive into TERFsville because of some mumsnet thing I have no idea about. What happened?

Mermaids is a UK charity based around giving support to transgendered kids and their families, and is generally well regarded for their work. Naturally, TERFs loving hate them, and Stonewall for doing the heinous treason of recognising trans people are real.

A couple of months ago, some TERF snuck a camera into a seminar the group was running and gave the footage to one of the UK papers (the Telegraph, I think). Despite the paper trying to make it out like the charity was indoctrinating parents into forcefully transitioning their kids or some crap, the seminar was pretty tame Gender 101 stuff and as a result it bounced off the public consciousness. This naturally made TERFs loving furious and Mermaids became the great Satan to Mumsnet.

Enter wonk-eyed bellend Graham Linehan, who incited the Mumsnet userbase to flood the National Lottery with concerned letters wrt the Lottery giving Mermaids and Stonewall charity grants in hopes of suspending the payments. It worked, if only because the Lottery's internal rules means they have to investigate poo poo if enough outcry against a charity is brought up, freezing the grant indefinitely. While Stonewall could handle without it for the moment, Mermaids desperately needed it, thus leading to all the TERFs laughing it up Twitter about how they totally owned a children's charity.

And that of course led into local Goon makes good hbomberguy running a now well publicised charity stream and raising a loving boatload of money for Mermaids to spite Lineham, who is now in like his second week of the ultimate corncob.

Forgot which one Crooked Media was and when it came up in the premium episode I briefly confused it with Feral Audio and very briefly had an alternate-timeline glimpse of a truly heinous TV show concept

I've heard of this happening but it's never happened to me

I've also done it in replies to other people (which I've heard has caused probations), but nothing there either

Then again Twitter is nothing if not inconsistent about punishing users so I shouldn't be surprised

Thanks for the summary! I'd lost the thread of mumsnet a while ago. Just a small note, but most people in the community prefer "transgender," rather than transgendered. :)

Wasn’t feeling the stream, felt like my sense of detached alienation from the first half of a truly awful first half cultural experience was not ready for what seemed like an earnest attempt to create something new, and that the comment stream was a depressing cesspool. No big deal, hope they don’t take that poo poo too seriously.
