Not much has to be said about Clemy and I'm not going to say much. Did she jump or was she pushed? Either way I do not care. Rather I will let Clemy speak for herself in the way that only she can, with a mouth spraying bovine fertiliser 360.
What more needs to be said? Misandry anyone? Try flipping the gender on any of these tweets and see "equality" at work. Don't let the door slam on your arse on your way out Clemy.

A reddit sub-redddit intolerant of opposing views - r/transgenderau
About 3 months ago I had an exchange on the sub-reddit on a thread about this news story. The sub-reddit thread is here. UWA criticised for talk by transgender sceptic Quentin Van Meter UWA
The thread was discussing the case of Quentin Van Meter being allowed to give a talk at the UWA (University of Western Australia). ABC (Australia) link
I protested that Van Meter had a right to host a talk even if they or myself disagreed with what he said. I do not accept everything Van Meter says but I believe he has a right to be controversial and contrary all the same. The standard response was something like "hate speech is not free speech" yadda yadda yadda. Engaging in conversation was fruitless as expected. Closed minds are like that and I have noticed that trans activists are more closed minded than most and are VERY enthusiastic deplatformers. They will not tolerate ANY dissent AT ALL. There are exceptions of course like Blaire White but as a rule transactivism is very strident.
This was my first comment:
The thread petered out and for 3 months that was that. A forgotten exchange. One of many I have engaged in on social media. But, suddenly 3 months latter I received this message.
Why 3 months? The r/transgenderau moderator or someone subscribed to it was smarting for 3 months. before banning me from making comments.
I took up the suggestion of contacting the moderator and we had a short exchange over a few days.
The exchange can be summarised as "you can sprout elsewhere", "I wouldn't shit on your carpet" and "this is not a political space". I challenged these excuses by 1) that wanting to deplatform a critic does indeed make the thread very political and 2) they were themselves "shitting" on the UWA carpet while protesting my criticism and 3) I questioned their commitment to allow critics, myself or others, to speak elsewhere when the evidence shows that transactivists have form for shutting down and deplatforming critics.
So with these points made what was the response? A concession? A reassessment of his position? Oh no, not at all. No, the response was to temporarily ban me from communicating with the moderator for 72 hours. The response to be questioned, challenged and having inconsistencies and contradictions pointed out is #Censorship.
Below is the full exchange I had with the moderator.

I have listened to Dr Quentin Van Meter on the Bettina Arndt YT channel and he is not at all "hateful'. It's cheating to shut someone down by making bald face claims that someone is a "hater". He has different opinions but that is not hate. If he is so obviously wrong then there is no harm in engagement with him and no harm in allowing him to speak. Let the public decide if his opinions have merit. Those who want to hear both sides should not be "nannied" "for their own good". That is such an elitist position. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8_HavG7u9sThat was the general theme of my discussion. After being called "a white cis guy" (because addressing the substance or lack thereof is not a habit of transactivists) I then posited that an outsider far from being disqualified has the advantage of an objective perspective that an insider does not have. This challenge to their thinking obviously means I must be a "troll" and a "loon". A reflex resort when one's position is challenged by disagreement.

[–]subreddit message via /r/transgenderau[M] sentYou have been banned from participating in r/transgenderau. You can still view and subscribe to r/transgenderau, but you won't be able to post or comment.
If you have a question regarding your ban, you can contact the moderator team for r/transgenderau by replying to this message.
Reminder from the Reddit staff: If you use another account to circumvent this subreddit ban, that will be considered a violation of the Content Policy and can result in your account being suspended from the site as a whole.[–]to /r/transgenderau sentI can think of Ralph Waldo Emerson who said "Never let me fall into the vulgar mistake of dreaming I am persecuted whenever I am contradicted." I think also of the words attributed to Voltaire "I disagree with everything you say but I will fight to the death for your right to say it". I am puzzled also by the 3 month period following my post? Why so long? Censors usually move faster.[–]subreddit message via /r/transgenderau[M] sentThis guy you're supporting is deliberately obscuring the truth and dressing himself up as a credible clinician/scientist when it's just lies.
For an example of one of the ACP's views, they put forth a statement linking abortion to later breast cancer. The reasoning: Pregnancy protects against breast cancer in later life, therefore abortion causes breast cancer.
There's no truth being exposed here, the ACP are arguing in bad faith and being deliberately deceptive about their opinions being somehow science based.[–]to /r/transgenderau sentI am not supporting anyone at all. I do not agree with what the guy says but I do support his right to say it in any case. That supporting in any way (not necessarily his views but his right to express them) is enough to have a subscriber banned speaks of insecurity. Freedom of speech is not limited ONLY to those to speak a truth. This is the bed rock of democracy. I am sorry you are so easily triggered like a seismiclly reactive snowflake but if the only place you can feel safe and comfortable is in an echo chamber then I do not care to walk on egg shells and I do not care to share a space with the professionally victimatic. I prefer to live in a robust democracy of energetic exchange of different views. I feel sorry for you for you do not see yourself as who you really are. And why wait 3 months? If my position was not offensive enough then, why is it now?[–]subreddit message via /r/transgenderau[M] sentThis ain't a space for political debate, it's a space for support and care for trans people. If you want a political debate go to a different sub.
Or alternately, can I come around to your house and shit on the carpet as some kind of political statement? No? But, free speech!
You can believe whatever you like, but this is not the space to expose those views. Declaring it as some kinda "right" is just indignant and stupid.[–]to /r/transgenderau sentAll sounds very reasonable except there are a few problems here. First " If you want a political debate go to a different sub." This is fine except the desire to deplatform a speaker at some other venue, the UWA, not r/transgenderau. For a "space" which is not "political" this is a very political thread. My crime was not politics per say but only a particular type of politics you do not approve of. Second the assertion that you would not "shit on the carpet" in my house but you do exactly this at other venues like the UWA. You want to "shit" on other platforms. This betrays another truth. You imply that one has the right to express their views elsewhere but this is not true. You want to shut down any and all other venues and platform where views you do not approve are or could be expressed.[–]subreddit message via /r/transgenderau[M] sentI'm not entirely sure what you hope to achieve by this, but whatever it is it's not being achieved.
You can spout whatever bullshit you like (free speech) but you don't have the right to a platform, particularly in a safe space.[–]to /r/transgenderau sentI am struck by the appeal for "for space" while wanting to make unsafe outside space which opposes your position. This is a double standard. You want to deplatform others so your statement "You can sprout whatever bullshit...." is not actually a heart felt sentiment on your part.

Russia Russia Russia - Marcia Marcia Marcia
How many are tired of the media hysteria over the "hacking" of the US election last November by the Russians?
- The leading factor in the lost of the US Presidential Election by Hillary Clinton was Hillary Clinton.
- There does not seem to be anything more than innuendo and "maybes" and "could have" passed off as revelations.
- I am having trouble trying to work out what the Russians are supposed to have done that America has never done. A lot of stones being thrown by people living in glass houses.

My French Viewers
I have checked out the stats on this blog and it seems that the nation with the most visitors to my blog is France with more views than any other nation.
Quite why this is so I do not know.

Laci Green II - America's Greatest Rape Machine
This is a second post about Laci Green. In my first post Laci Green Raped Me (of my innocence) I described the phenomenon of lots of "claims" by sceptics of feminism that Laci Green had raped them. I even added my own account. This was consistent with the Laci promoted meme of #ListenAndBelieve.
I adapted the lyrics of the chorus of the Boney M hit Ra Ra Rasputin to the Laci Green phenomenon and the meme of #LaciRapedMe for the lyrics.

My Personal Pronoun
Much has been made of the use of pronouns, in particular in reference to trans people. The issue has been brought to public debate and derision primarily because of the criticism of the proposed 16C of the Canadian Human Rights Code by Jordan Peterson. He is a clinical psychologist and a professor of psychology at the University of Toronto. His contention is that this law requiring self identified gender pronouns be used to reflect a person's own identified gender (up to 70 and climbing) is dangerous and consigns due process to the waste bin of history. His stance has cause a maelstrom of controversy.
In this spirit I have decided to make known my pronoun as follows. zhyruriop. Let me explain.
To denote ownership in the first person you add ori after the pronoun. eg. This is zhyruriopori work.
To denote ownership in the third person you add oro after the pronoun. eg. This is zhyrurioporo work.
As a first person object pronoun you add ula after zhyruriop. eg. This work belongs to
zhyruriopula.
As a third person object pronoun you add me after zhyruriop. eg. This work belongs to
zhyruriopme.
To use zhyruriop as referring to the past as action done add an i prefix to zhyruriop. eg Izhyruriop went to the theatre.
To use zhyruriop as referring to the present as action being done in the present add an a prefix to zhyruriop. eg.Azhyruriop is going to the theatre.
To use zhyruriop as referring to a future add an e prefix to zhyruriop. eg. Ezhyruriop will go the the theatre.
To use zhyruriop as as relating to an involuntary action put the prefix ta in front of zhyruriop. eg. Tazhyruriop reports to tazhyrurioporo parole officer every month. Note the prefix will go before the possessive pronoun as well. For an involuntary action in the past or future but not to the present in concert with the involuntary action place the z or e prefix in front of the ta prefix. eg For 3 years Itazhyruriop reported to itazhyruriopor parole officer.
So with this information you can now address zhyruriopme properly. Failure to adhere strictly will be a sign of oppression and hate and a breach of zhrurioporo rights and will result in persecution and prosecution. Penalties up to and including prison may apply. Strangely not many people want to talk to zhyruriopme these days but azhyruriop is feeling more empowered as a result these pronoun rules being respected.

Lemon Tree - the MGTOW Anthem
One of the songs I remember from childhood was Lemon Tree. I remember singing it at a school concert as part of a class choir. At the age of 9 I did not really understand the meaning of the lyrics or their context. As a young boy I appreciated the girls at my school and had quite a few female friends. I knew the feeling of being fixated on the occasional very beautiful girl in school. But in my prepubescent years I had no idea about romantic rollercoasters or the emotional turmoil of relationships. I really had no idea what the song was about except that it was a nice song and a little sad.
As an adult I can understand how prescient the lyrics are as they relate to heart ache, loneliness and especially the MGTOW movement. Lemon Tree is arguably a MGTOW anthem. It speaks to many of the issues raised by MGTOW thinkers. The emotional vulnerability of men to their heart strings and the casual hypergamy of women. It speaks to the different agendas of men and women in relationships. The fact that men and women operate at cross purposes in a relationship. Men do not know these dynamics. There is no active education of men in these matters and there seems little incentive for society to provide any. But it should be noted that in the song the "lad of ten" is given exactly this education and it fails to offer him the protection he needs. That may be a pessimistic omen for men in general. That the big head is over ruled by the little head in the affairs of the heart. Below are 2 versions, one by the Seekers and the other by Peter Paul and Mary. The lyrics supplied are from Peter Paul and Mary. Enjoy.
Lemon Tree
When I was just a lad of ten, my father said to me,
"Come here and take a lesson from the lovely lemon tree."
"Don't put your faith in love, my boy", my father said to me,
"I fear you'll find that love is like the lovely lemon tree."
Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet
But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat.
Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet
But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat.
One day beneath the lemon tree, my love and I did lie
A girl so sweet that when she smiled the stars rose in the sky.
We passed that summer lost in love beneath the lemon tree
The music of her laughter hid my father's words from me:
Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet
But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat.
Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet
But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat.
One day she left without a word. She took away the sun.
And in the dark she left behind, I knew what she had done.
She'd left me for another, it's a common tale but true.
A sadder man but wiser now I sing these words to you:
Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet
But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat.
Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet
But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat.
