Canadian man potentially faces 6 months in prison for refusing a feminist to dox and harass.

Murphy said the case was akin to “a high school spat, except it’s adults on the Internet”, and said it is astonishing that the court should be acting as referee in an online political debate.

If anybody was being criminally harassed in this case,” Murphy told the judge, “it was my client, it was Mr. Elliott.”

Un-frickin-believable. Apparently it wasn't enough that this guy got fired from his job for disagreeing with feminists. Now they want to send him to prison. Feminists are a menace to a free society.

You all might not be aware, but several months ago the judge in this case received a letter from someone claiming to be a former associate of the women.

The alleged associate disclosed that the women had met in person as planned on Twitter (I read the logs before this letter was received, and when they began talking about this on Twitter I totally called what is to follow).

The alleged associate said that the meeting was arranged in order to "deal with" Elliott, and that at the end of it each woman had a scripted part to play.

The judge acknowledged that the receipt of this letter was highly irregular, and that sending a message to a judge regarding a case in which he was presiding was inappropriate to the point of unprecedented. But he adjourned the proceedings and ordered the police to launch an investigation of the women on the grounds of criminal conspiracy.

I have no idea if that investigation is closed. But Blatchford wrote about it in a NP article months ago.

This entire case is appalling.

Elliott was expressing his disagreement with the feminists' ongoing and planned future real life harassment of Ben Spurr. And Steph Guthrie did a TEDx talk wherein she claimed she'd debated with herself as to whether she should "sic the internet" on Spurr, and messaged anyone and everyone who might ever employ Spurr, and planned to poster his home town with evidence of his misogyny. Elliott asked her to reconsider. Spurr is a young man, said Elliot. What if he kills himself? Well, if he does, that isn't my fault, he brought it on himself, replied Guthrie.

Guthrie is the harasser here. She used her internet popularity and media connections to harass Spurr, who did nothing more or less than give Anita Sarkeesian the "Jack Thompson treatment". And she used the criminal courts (likely because of her political connections) to harass Elliott.

Elliot is a graphic artist and web designer. He's been banned from using computers or the internet as a condition of his bail. He's been unable to work for more than 2 years because of this.

And what started it all? He offered to do some free work for Guthrie's organization, witopoli (women in Toronto politics). He offered to support a feminist cause and then disagreed with a feminist's actions.

Considering that this feminist bigot was able to collectively use the state to harass a guy for refusing an illegal act, one has to ask how far down the rabbit hole is canada going to go.

2015-07-16T01:21:56+00:00

I've said it multiple times - there is no free speech in Canada.

Canada is the North American hot bed for feminist propaganda, especially Toronto, so I'm not surprised by this at all.

Yet Guthrie and Reilly didn’t behave as though they were remotely frightened or intimidated: They convened a meeting of friends to discuss how Elliott should be publicly shamed; they bombarded their followers with furious tweets and retweets about him (including a grotesque suggestion from someone pretending she was a 13-year-old that he was a pedophile); they could and did dish it out.

It's the Shanley Kane playbook

incendiary language combined with gross generalizations to setup a giant trap for any well-meaning but misguided nerd who wants to challenge her or just get 'educated' on why she feels that way.

It's like a food fight in the cafeteria, except the cafeteria is full of hundreds of thousands of nerds and the ammunition is hashtags. At the end of the day, twitter followers are won and lost, alliances are formed and broken, and the blocks keep rolling in. Some egos are bruised, but life carries on. That's not the REAL fun though, which is getting an opponent fired!

she goes on and on about "boundaries" -- boundaries like "don't ask me questions I don't like"

her modus operandi apparently. Insult people, bait them into responding, and then sic her mob.

Above all, shouldn't this harassment law be used to prosecute people that dox and harass, not people that refuse to do so?

TheMer0vingian · 2015-07-16T04:35:45+00:00

This is absolutely insane. I can't believe society stands by idly and lets this kind of shit happen. Stories like this are at the point where the way it is handled is so absurdly partisan and openly misandric that it makes you question whether there is any hope at all for western society.

I tend to agree that the original video game was pretty malicious. I despise Sarkeesian, but it is definitely quite threatening to create a video game that depicts physical acts of violence being committed against a specific person like that. If the game just depicted a generic feminist blogger I'd have no problem with it. Proper legal avenues could have been taken to address the concerns about the game. Feminist utilization of mob justice and mass-shaming campaigns are completely out of control. All the guy did was disagree with their tactics and refuse to participate in a smear campaign. Somehow now HE is being prosecuted for harassment when these girls literally held a meeting about how they could best ruin his life, they got him fired, they slandered him and ruined his reputation just for disagreeing with them, and HE is the one being charged for harassment? You have got to be fucking kidding me.

Wow...just reading into this case...this is absolutely unbelievable. I'm just sitting here confused as to how this vicious woman has made it this far. Even without a guilty verdict, she has effectively destroyed this mans life.

I find myself hoping for the online backlash worse than the one that that came at Adria Richards when she destroyed a mans life because she eavesdropped and overheard him tell a joke that offended her. However, I'm struggling the most to understand how a respectable nation can allow someone so manipulative and vicious to troll their criminal justice system and destroy people's lives like this.

How on earth did this case get this far?

levelate · 2015-07-16T00:27:41+00:00

it is insane that this has been allowed to get this far into the system.

just read what she has said in court....un fucking believable.

The scary thing is I live near Toronto and I have a digital footprint of how much I also disagree with this shitty ideal called feminism. And SJW's, but everyone knows they're even more cancerous. Anyway, I live near Toronto, so what's to say I won't get fucked over if they dig up my history?

Welcome to Canada, where men have no rights, especially freedom of speech and can expect to be locked up and their entire lives ruined for even batting an eyelash against the feminazi regime collective.

Heil Feminism!

And regarding the article. Holy shit, triggered to MAX! Butthurt to the MAX!

I better make sure to shut him up because his opinion disagrees with mine.

FUCK FEMINISM.

arrest me.

Kinbaku_enthusiast · 2015-07-15T23:03:48+00:00

For disagreeing online, he is now facing harassment charges.

pnw_diver · 2015-07-15T23:53:37+00:00

Whoever these creepy little girls are they need a fat dose of their own medicine.

ConfirmedCynic · 2015-07-16T03:20:42+00:00

He should launch a countersuit for what they did and said.

Also I would like everybody here to know that I bring you this link, as a feminist. I know that progress for men's rights are prohibited by a feminist establishment right now.

There are allies to your/our cause in some feminist circles and it can help to develop a language to refer to those strands of feminist thought that are instrumental in separating these kind of extremists from more equality minded feminists.

I know it's not really your job and I'm doing my best to achieve that from the inside, but I do think it can help at dividing feminists if you tailor your language to describe specific kinds of feminists.

KickedToTheTop · 2015-07-16T00:01:17+00:00

I really hate to say this. I want a world where everyone has a relatively healthy amount of freedom, and where we have a lot of gender equality.

But I don't think this arrangement is going to work for very long, and if/when the changes happen, they won't be for the good of women. When political instability arrives, I'm afraid to say, it will not be women who will be able to get it under control, and they will not come out on top.

I really hope not, because women and men both deserve all the opportunities they can get, but the snowballing of bizarre and stupefying cases like this make me think that it won't be possible, that the instability is too great and the lack of balance is obvious.

In the meantime, I hope this man doesn't have to go to jail.

Bitch looks like a caricature of a feminist.

Canadian man potentially faces 6 months in prison for refusing a feminist to dox and harass.

What does this mean? "refusing a feminist to dox and harass." I have no fucking clue what the title wants to mean.

SigmundFloyd76 · 2015-07-16T12:33:17+00:00

No Way! This will not happen. This case will be thrown out, I have no doubt. On top of that, the judge will scold the two applicants and there will be consequences for frivolous prosecution.

If he gets convicted, we have to take to the streets and burn the country down.

2015-07-16T16:02:25+00:00

this woman is fucked in the head, apparently she said in court she has been raped multiple time by multiple men but has never reported any of them to the police.

This video sums up this entire thing, it's not pure objective, but it also isn't extremly biased:
