How Self-Declared Feminists Deal With Dissent...

It seems another councillor made the fatal error of not 'checking his privilege' before making a clearly humorous remark of Twitter. The unfortunate chap was one Peter Chapman, whose Twitter remark, while being kept waiting for a Starbucks, was:

“Terminally slow (and bad) service from the bone idle bitches and Costa Dorchester today, they all need a good beating.”

Now, had he said 'chaps' he'd have probably been home free. But this set off the feminists because this was, of course, dangerous and condoning violence to women.

Yes, I know, I've said the same thing myself about men and women - 'God, if he doesn't hurry up, I'm going to go postal!' 'Christ, if she doesn't get out of the way of the cabbages I'll move her fat arse with this trolley' -    and it's never crossed my mind to thing that someone would be so damnably stupid as to consider it 'hate speech enabling a misogynist world'.

But I reckoned without the crazy cadre of the sisterhood. Clearly, I'd forgotten just how deep the crazy flows there...

Well, I'm intrigued! So, I click on the link.

Oh my.

Naturally, I disagreed.

Now, do you think I got anywhere pointing out that there was no 'violence' here? Reader, I did not. And when her even more rabid followers turned up, it was Katie bar the door!

This caused a bit of consternation - clearly, this was a 'threat'.

And the Sisterhood reacted as expected:

Wow! This 'Kraken' is a bit of a wimp when it comes to conflicting views, isn't it? Not so for Tsar Ionochka (face of an angel, mouth of a docker):

Now, savour the irony that this whole discussion arose out of language considered 'threatening and uncivil'...
