I don’t get it. Someone on her staff resigned; there was a news story about this resignation; someone tweeted at the MP about the resignation, and the MP noted that the tweeter had a real picture of the resigner in their profile? Where’s the doxxing?

She didn’t name the person- she said “seeing as you have them in your picture”. Most ppl wouldn’t know how to find someone’s identity out from a small snap on a twitter bio but I guess the Gender Extremists are more into dodgy internet tactics.

It's called "reverse image search" and everyone who doesn't live in a cave has heard of it since TinEye launched twelve fucking years ago

Obsessive stalking and harassment skews very, very male.

Yes, and most people who know what a reverse image search is know partly because they've had to protect themselves from stalking and harassment Like the female staffer Duffield just put a target on

Target? By the MP??? They resigned in protest! Pink news wrote an article about them! Their friend reached out publicly to the MP with the Resigner’s picture in their profile and the MP noted that fact in the same medium! Your ire is misplaced.

Yes Being an MP vs being a staffer is an asymmetrical relationship, in which the MP has an immense amount of privilege and power Anonymity clauses are designed, among other things, specifically to protect whistleblowers

Duffield's complaints that this is "unfair" and that she shouldn't have to just take it when she's being trashed online without being able to trash the little people back is a vivid demonstration of why she's unfit for office

The thing is if this exact scenario had played out with a female staffer resigning from the office of a male MP because of sexism you would never in a million years be talking about the MP's right to defend himself or carping about what counts as true retaliation

“If the sexes were reversed” is such a weak argument. You’re arguing against me for arguing at all, not my argument.

I'm arguing against you for defending an MP who's come under investigation from the union for abusing their staff! Jesus Christ

I’m trying to understand the accusation because it doesn’t make sense to me. There was no doxxing. There was barely a sort of recognition of a picture of the staffer, when approached on a public forum about the topic of the staffer by someone eff holding a picture of the staffer.

In a heated thread that all of Duffield's creepy TERF followers were piling into, yes It is utterly disingenuous to pretend this wasn't a threat - the whole "Oh, we don't stalk and harass, we're the good guys" TERF bullshit
