    Log in to Twitter. Find people have come to my account to tell me my name is stupid and I talk too much. I suspect someone has retweeted something of mine to people inclined to get pissed off about it. #Ignoring

        This idiotic culture of swarming ones account is what I’ve named death by a thousand tweets. Each tweet is meaningless on its own but getting them en mass is a good way to “convince” people to leave or shut up. That’s when I started my love affair with the block button.

        Yeah. I've had it from radfems, anarchists, alt-right & Jordan Peterson fans mostly. The SocJus lot tend to just block me.

        What are the Peterson fans, RadFems and Anarchists attacking you on? They are pretty generally quite disparate in their views. I think you tweet pretty responsibly and thoughtfully even when I'm not on board 100%. Weird to be attacked from such varied vantage points.

        Yes, they swarm me when I criticise Peterson, Radical feminist ideas and the anarchists seem to come out nowhere when I say liberal secular democracy is actually OK.

        You DO talk too much. Technically you type too much. Unless you have a voice controlled keyboard. Then you talk too much. And Helen rhymes with Bellen' (silent D).

        I had to find some stupid reason to support the claim that your name is stupid. I probably should have targeted your surname.
