[Discussion] What will the feminists pull at Ryerson?

EJSpurrell · 2014-02-05T11:43:24+00:00

To be honest, speculation of what they might do is counterproductive. You can make the argument that it might prepare us, but the reality is that if they do something, we just have to let them. Stand back and watch them make fools of themselves in the public eye.

The reality is that we want them to try something. Because honestly, loud, crazy, self-absorbed and narcissistic radical feminists are doing more to help CAFE than hinder it. It's because of them that we're able to have a real dialogue and bring such awareness of men's issues to light, despite it being the exact opposite of what they intended.

That's the beauty of it. People wondering, "Why are these people so pissed off?" then finding out that they're just nutters. And so, the MRM gains another supporter. That's exactly how I stumbled into men's rights awareness. It wasn't that I was the wrong person arrested in a domestic violence situation, it was that I found a YouTube video of feminists protesting a talk on suicide because it was about male suicide.

Bring on the crazy radfems. Despite their vitriol and emotive hatred, they're literally our best publicity.

all I can do is suggest that if you are attending, Go in a group if possible. Bring a recording device. Canada has single party recording laws. Try to have a backup if possible, preferably something that uploads to the cloud. If you are confronted, DO NOT RESPOND. Provocateurs want you to retaliate. They want to use you as an example of violence against their "legitimate" protest. Don't oblige them. If you are yelled at, insulted, spit upon, etc, do not respond. Disengage if possible. Engage the help of a third party (security or police) to assist you. If they block you, don't push through. back away and try to enter from a different point. Be as passive as possible. Remember, THEY are the aggressors. THEY are the suppressors of speech. Let them hang themselves with their own rope. Last but not least, stay safe and ABR (Always Be Recording).

We can always hope for another light rain.

If they are smart, they won't do anything.

I suspect they will organize against RSU, or possibly petition the human rights tribunals. If they do show up, it will be the typical feminist bullshit: fire alarms, calling people names, petty assaults, etc...

These people are immune to prosecution on small stuff, so they will remain petty. That said, it's probably just a matter of time until some idiot decides to up everything.

My personal belief is that since CAFE's not been forced to pay the fee any longer, they'll seek some kind of comeuppance or "vengeance" for that perceived slight against their authority.

I say this, because it would be the exact opposite way they handled the last time CAFE had a fee imposed upon them. Of course, since CAFE actually paid the fee, it made sense for them to not show up, to further rub salt into the wound.

Given this: It will likely be more of the same. Fire alarms and shouted insults from the back of the room. The frequency of their activity will likely be at an all-time high though.

If only a carpool were swinging by Brantford tomorrow! I'd love to watch Mrs. Straughan lead a discussion on Feminist Censorship! But such is life, of course.

So, to all those who are going: Have fun, and try to get some crazy antics on film!

Funcuz · 2014-02-05T12:05:29+00:00

What will they do ? The same thing they always do : They'll scream and cuss as loudly as possible so that nobody can actually hear whatever is being said. Frankly , they'll do whatever it takes to stop anybody from speaking about something that threatens them.

Truth be told , I hope they're even more extreme than usual. I want them to be. It's self-incrimination. It proves our point about them.

circuitology · 2014-02-05T12:19:34+00:00

I suggest that everyone that attends takes video footage from the minute they have sight of protestors to the minute they are out of sight again.

It makes it more likely that any bad behaviour is at least documented, so if they pull the fire alarm or something like that, they can be held accountable.

PerfectHair · 2014-02-05T12:23:32+00:00

Aside: Is this lecture going to be videoed?

TRPACC · 2014-02-05T11:29:17+00:00

Standing outside making false accusations. Hopefully, given that GGW is closer to us than any of the others it will make them act crazier than usual.

TrouserTorpedo · 2014-02-05T14:14:55+00:00

This is a link to the original comment.

do NOT go home with any women from that lecture unless you know them very very well

I had not thought of this. I wonder if this has ever been pulled before?

TrouserTorpedo · 2014-02-05T10:21:33+00:00

I suspect if anything it be much like the last two times they protested pro-MRA lectures. I doubt they do anything more than pull a fire alarm or that block doors. As they seen the cops will have have arrested them for such illegal activities. They may walk into the lecture tho and try and interrupt GirlWritesWhat as she speaks. As they done this as well.

Beyond that I doubt they do anything more than that. Tho going by a "secret" meeting these feminists had that part of which got recorded by AVFM, they may take a different tact. Seeing their tact so far has backfired on them and put them in a negative light rightfully so.

SpaceKraken23 · 2014-02-05T10:40:33+00:00

im expecting just a handful of them standing around with signs that say stupid things. but im gonna keep my fingers crossed and hope they come out in droves to make complete asses out of themselves like they did at Toronto.

2014-02-05T16:19:54+00:00

The smart thing would be for them to do nothing.

Bla34112 · 2014-02-05T17:01:05+00:00

Maybe nothing?

Every other time they showed up trying to disrupt it was a PR debacle for them... maybe they'll learn? If they're smart they'll learn.

Or maybe not.

2014-02-05T15:10:04+00:00

I don't really expect much of anything. After their embarrassing display in Toronto their little ring leaders will be trying to rein in the wackos (which there are a lot of) They are busy as of late trying to save face. Which is actually pretty important. Am pretty sure there are a great deal of influential feminists that will be more interested in optics and media coverage of their protest. Further, the more attention the event creates the better it will be for the MRM. So I expect they will be "tame" but given the show in Toronto we know there is a seething beast chomping at the bit that wants to have the event censored.

wayfarin · 2014-02-05T17:50:50+00:00

No matter what... Bring cameras. Watch the alarms. Pulling those is illegal.

Michael_Romanoff · 2014-02-05T18:00:46+00:00

I hope no one gets hurt-they are vicious people.

unbannable9412 · 2014-02-05T15:55:53+00:00

I'm just waiting for the day god forbid someone gets shot.

The only thing I see stopping some of these feminist from doing as much is because their political inclination makes them anti-gun and would probably shoot their self in the foot on the way to shooting some MRA publicly speaking.

Then again feminists are more fans of proxy violence than direct violence.

I think speculation might just reveal our worst fears and give them ideas. I'd rather just deal with what comes then speculate about what might happen.

jokersmild · 2014-02-05T19:31:44+00:00

I would arm myself with a camera and go a try and get some video of them acting up. Like that red haired freak from Toronto after they pulled the fire alarm. I hope she is on the seen... I want to see more of her explaining her cause so calmly and politely. Eloquent and charming speech fron such a charming lady.

SRSLovesGawker · 2014-02-06T07:27:13+00:00

It's hard to see how any significant shenanigans are going to be organized, coordinated or maintained when it's -8 to -10°C outside. I could see some attempts at "sleeper" disruption style nonsense (inside where it's warm), but I doubt their outrage can outlast a Canadian winter's evening, so little to no attempts at blockades and protests I'm guessing.
