I increasingly feel Iu2019ve woken up in a Black Mirror episode about a dystopia where women are gaslit, belittled and psychologically abused in some godawful experiment to find their breaking point. To just make them submit. Roll over. Admit defeat 1/ https://twitter.com/HJJoyceEcon/status/1191395348008312832">https://twitter.com/HJJoyceEc...

Men breaking womenu2019s sporting WRu2019s and winning their awards. Male rapists in womenu2019s prisons and rape crisis centres. Stealing the very language they have to describe themselves and their experiences. Their hard won spaces gone (or at least going), just like that 2/

Many women see it and speak out. They get attacked and bullied, hounded off SM or out of their jobs. Often by pathetic men, upset that they can no longer call women cunts, bitches or whores, that canu2019t believe their luck they can now call them TERFu2019s with impunity 3/

Yes, some women join in. I think some just canu2019t see how it affects them u2013 they donu2019t play sport and are not planning on going to prison or needing a DV centre. Others, imo, think that if they agree enough, the ire wonu2019t get pointed at them. Maybe. But probably not 4/

I can see where that comes from. What I donu2019t understand is decent men that can see it and say nothing. YOU ABSOLUTE WANKERS. What the fuck is wrong with you? I know you can see it. I know you could say something, but you donu2019t. Why? 5/

It doesnu2019t affect you? Do you have a mum? A wife or gf? Daughters, nieces or female friends? Even if you donu2019t, do you not have any sense of basic decency and wanting fairness in this world? You wonu2019t get anywhere near the shit women get for speaking out 6/

This isnu2019t a Black Mirror episode. This is the real world in 2019. THIS IS REALLY HAPPENING. It wonu2019t go away, it will get worse if we donu2019t say anything. Itu2019s wrong, but also true that menu2019s voices still carry more weight. Men: PLEASE SAY SOMETHING /end
