No, I’m still on X but this sounds like the sort of false claim that NZ’s CEO drag queen “Miss Representations First” would make.

I would say there is quite a bit of overlap since in her video podcast that goes along with the article, Penny Marie starts by saying there might be a paedophile ring here before talking about Ardern and Robertson and the Rainbow Wellbeing Fund. So this is all QAnon/Pizzagate adjacent.

Indeed. In part two, I'll be covering how MLMs often target women and issues around self-esteem and intentionally weaponise the emotion of shame, both to recruit and keep people in, and to silence people when they quit, just like other destructive cult groups do.

I think it was likely meant to be a reference to CSAM, an acronym for child sexual abuse material.

Yes. Jan is deep in the gender critical movement here and has been for many years. Genspect holds itself out as a legitimate therapists collective but are essentially gender conversion therapy advocates and often work alongside SEGM. www.splcenter.org/resources/re...

While you can assert that you’re not qualified to make that assessment, I don’t think you can extend that to others, especially someone who has spent considerable effort analysing the York systematic reviews and Cass Review like Gideon has. gidmk.substack.com/p/the-cass-r...

Indeed. 🫂 Franklin D. Roosevelt said ‘I ask you to judge me by the enemies I have made’. I get it since I’ve had anti-vax and anti-trans Wolf packs put me on blast - those two groups overlap a lot of course. www.webworm.co/p/screamingh...

Why are the anti-vaxxers all anti-trans now?

The anti-vax coalition was adrift for a moment after Covid measures were dropped but now it’s galvanised around genitals.

Indeed. The more intense ‘Free speech’ advocates want to enforce their desire for freedom from any social consequences for their prejudiced speech and to exact an emotional toll on anyone who dissents from support that. More here: www.traces-of-therapy.com/p/under-the-...

That sure sounds like there could be some rage-filled enforcing going on there. It also reminds me of Damien Grant’s insistence on his fireworks displays despite neighbours complaints about the impacts on their livestock. thespinoff.co.nz/society/08-0...

Oof - that's quite an escalation. So it sounds like they really wanted to exact some kind of emotional price and punish you for some presumed failing?

It bothers me greatly that so much of really bad management consulting seems to be butchered psychotherapy models. I'm looking at *you* L. Ron Hubbard and especially Werner Erhard. He was such an Est-hole and birthed the Landmark Education Forum. *cough* cult/high control group *cough*

Similarly, some of the current big-time Rage-Baiter's are not anonymous either. They have other attributes - namely sufficient personal wealth - which has largely insulated them from the social consequences of their hateful speech too. They actively court notoriety to feel important and powerful.
