Lesbians dressed as clowns disrupted a "gender-critical" panel last month at University College London. Participants were surprised when trans and cis dykes from The Dyke Project obstructed the proceedings while in cheerful clown attire. Julie Bindel, one of the panelists, has been a major voice against trans, bisexual, and SWer rights. The protesters chanted, âyouâre not feminists, youâre all clowns!â while interrupting her. More of these protests, please! Read the full story on Dazed.
At 0:19 you can see them fully assault a protester. Not "just" escorting them out the building, but shoving them onto the ground hard
Per the Dazed article, these protesters did the smart thing: rather than all begin shouting at once, the protesters took action in different groups. While the first group raised a banner, the remaining three groups pretended not to be protesters. Then, once the event organizers had removed the first group and begun the presentation over again, the second group of people (the ones in the video) began their disruption. Then the event organizers got everything in order and the third group of protesters interrupted them all over again. There was four groups in total!
The tactic has two benefits: first, they were able to make chaos a lot longer than they would've if they'd all protested all at once. But also, they got the TERFs to stop trusting each other. The protesters created an air of paranoia amongst the bigots and I hope it fucking haunts them until they're in the ground
