Susie Green Told The World What She Was. Everyone Who Believed Her Got Punished
Stop the Presses - 29 November 2022
Under the leadership of CEO Susie Green, the charity Mermaids turned into a homophobic hate group that sterilizes LGB kids, converting them to de-sexed “trans kids.”
This aspect of her character was obvious from her own TED Talk in 2015. Her tweets, as well as the tweets of her now-adult “trans daughter,” were also too revealing by half of the motivations and rationalizations behind the sterilizing regimen of puberty blockers and surgery the minor child endured.
That Green’s sickness had affected the organization was all too clear for far too long before Mermaids filed the most self-destructive legal action in British charity law history at her behest.
As a result, what was never a secret is now, at long last, being scrutinized by reporters and editors: the safeguarding nightmares of their website, its forums, and its associated off-site forum; the breast binders sent to underage girls without parental consent or medical advice; board members open about their “minor attraction,” nude employees photoshopping their genitals all over the internet; teaching materials that advance dissociation based on sexist stereotypes; policy capture of police and government and educational institutions.
Questions are getting asked — questions that people have had for a long time, but now the people asking work for respected media platforms with legal departments.
Mermaids announced on Friday that Green had departed the organization. Shortly thereafter, people noticed that the all-too-revealing tweets had been deleted. The cover-up happened too late to keep curious journalists from seeing what so many of us have seen for so long, and anyway, the internet is forever.
As exemplified by the New York Times running a recent story acknowledging the weak evidence base for pediatric transition, some reporters and editors and publishing professionals are finding their feet on this issue, finally.
Maybe now they can convince the rest of their profession to stop punishing those of us who knew what Susie Green was, and tried to tell the world.
MEDIOCRE WHITE MALES: Sam Brinton, who announced his historic hiring as the first “openly genderfluid” federal employee at the US Department of Energy in February, has been charged with felony theft. Brinton allegedly stole a woman’s suitcase from an airport baggage claim and changed his story twice during questioning. The victim’s clothing was never recovered; no points for guessing what he probably did with it in that hotel room. Let’s hope the DoE counts their spent nuclear fuel rods very, very carefully.
MAKING LESBIANS ILLEGAL AGAIN: Lesbians cannot exclude men from their events anymore in Tasmania. Incredible as it sounds, a female judge actually gaslit the plaintiffs about male criminality. Same-sex attraction was a human right for a hot minute, but now the men are being restored to their rightful place as kings of women’s bodies. Tasmania is the Ireland of the Pacific, replacing the old priest class with a new priest class. Global LGBTQAlphabet NGOs have made no comments whatsoever supporting the rights of lesbians or denouncing this judicial lesbophobia because they are unfit for purpose, being so busy deciding what I am allowed to say on social media, and all.
WHEN POLICE ARE THE PROXY: Now that women’s social media opinions have been criminalized, it is only natural that abusers will make use of woke speech laws to extend their existing abuse. Of course, in Scotland, those women can also get raped by male prisoners.


WHEN COPS ARE THE CRIMINALS: Gee, why are British police so keen to arrest women for Tweeting or speaking in public? Maybe it’s because they keep hiring abusive men who hate women, because they are not themselves women, and can never be women, but desire being women above all else, and blame women? A disturbing thread.

A TWITTER OF OUR OWN: As soon as Elon Musk bought Twitter, the people who made that platform insufferable started a campaign to destroy it. I do not think they will succeed. While the forecasted “hate speech doom” has not materialized, child rape imagery has reportedly been purged, so it is not clear what these people are even complaining about, unless of course they are fans of children being raped. However, I noticed many of them were also moving to a new platform called Mastodon, where everyone can create their own social media echo chamber. I don’t like echo chambers, or internet server management, though, so I was a little unsure what to do as a fallback in case they succeed in killing the app somehow. Luckily, my dear friend William Ferguson has the solution! He created GenderHeretics.xyz, where all you heretics of gender are allowed to come and speak your minds. It works pretty much like Twitter, whee! (Follow me here. The community rules can be accessed here.) William also gave me a banhammer, so don’t go misbehaving and pushing me towards the inevitable power-trip where I become the thing I hate most.

DEAR SANTA: I peaked my mom by showing her this lovely children’s book. “It’s wonderful,” she said. “It is transphobic hate speech,” I explained to her uncomprehending face. “That’s insane,” she said. Then I armed her with my copy of this book to help peak every woman she knows, one at a time or in groups. That’s the power of one little book. So what I want for Christmas this year, Santa, is for a million TERFs across the English-speaking world to do the same thing. Please give them all copies of My Body Is Me, written by Rachel Rooney and illustrated by Jessica Ahlberg, so that every one of them can peak everyone they know. I’m sure that Transgender Trend will be happy to rush-order a shipment to the North Pole for you.
