Swansea society accused of transphobia after publicly supporting Kathleen
Stock and books by feminist author Helen Joyce A university feminist society has been “purged by trans activists”, with its email accounts shut down and members quitting for their safety. The women-only Swansea University Feminist Society had dozens of students attending its meetings, advertised as a “space away from men” to discuss issues such as the Welsh city’s surge of spiking incidents. But campus activists made “transphobia” allegations and demanded its leader be expelled after the society publicly supported Kathleen Stock, the professor bullied for her trans views at Sussex University, and promoted the feminist writer Helen Joyce's book. The “frenzied” backlash included its leader’s personal social media accounts being shared online and friends of student members vowing to never talk to them again, the society said. Crazed Activists piled on its Instagram account, writing “shut up Terf” – a slur for trans exclusionary radical feminist – and “freedom of speech does not mean freedom from consequences you dumb f---s”. Toby Young, the Free Speech Union’s general secretary, said: “The gradual erasure of feminist societies in Britain’s universities is a national scandal and is a perfect illustration of why the Higher Education (Freedom of Speech) Bill, which will hold universities to account, is so urgently needed. “I hope Liz Truss will push it to the top of her priority list.” https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/202...rs-frightened/ |

Sexist men can't stand to see women having anything that's their own. What else is new?

I love Helen Joyce, I could listen to her forever. But yeah this sounds strangely familiar, women not allowed to gather or set boundaries for ourselves.....

But seriously the Government must be loving this, while these two groups are fighting each other, nobody is looking at the Government not really coming up with any ideas to try to solve this issue. Basically a typical UK Government.

It is hard to understand how this is happening, free speech has consequences surly that should work both ways, adult bullies of this nature should be called out and dealt with by the police

No but I am pointing out that the trans activists feel that their free speech should have no consequences, they feel free to abuse, harass and bully so just total hypocrites

I bet the psychos bitching about Kathleen Stock can't even remember what she was meant to have said, just like how no-one can explain the bad things JK Rowling allegedly has said.
(I don't know Helen Joyce, so can't comment) |

She wrote the Book Trans: When Ideology meets reality, she's a very interesting woman to listen to, if you ever get a chance to listen to any of her interviews on youtube you should, she's been on loads of people's channels/shows
