🧵 The abuse Sarah from WWYW has received in defence of (arguably) the most powerful man in the land, highlights exactly the problem Aus has in making any changes around men's violence towards women.

Discharge Tuesday. Two TMS sessions a day until then. I've been here too long and I need to go home and pack for the move. On the upside, I'm feeling better. Downside? This place is so full of drama... and I'm going to be *very* tired for the next few days.
Hey @bean_dreaming, you have a couple more hearts to add to your page. And it would be awesome to be given it in person some day :D

Cishet white men really do think the system is designed to help even when sitting across from someone who's a victim of said system.
Drips claiming other people are partisan. *Slaps thigh* New Housewives coming 🔥🤦🏻♀️🔥
Albanese was so desperate to prove he cares about gendered violence, he forgot one thing: if you're a proper leader, it's not about you abc.net.au/news/2024-05-0… via @ABCaustralia
funniest bit of the lion king is when the little ferret dude and the pig have a mental breakdown bc their adopted son grew up straight
Men, what have you done today to stop violence against women?
TMS session 13 At least it doesn't hurt today.
I am not big on follower policing, but I have nearly a thousand mutuals with the vile misogynist account in the screenshots below. I echo this question, why?

Albo promised extra 200 frontline workers to help with DV crises 2 YEARS ago. He’s delivered 17 … but he got to speak at a woman’s rally right? Used his power to throw young DV/SA survivor under the bus of his followers. Perhaps rusteds could demand that he fulfills this promise
Albo’s behaviour was a classic example of everyday men’s violence against women. A powerful man against a young traumatised woman and the rusteds rush to HIS defence. Classic coercive control. In future all politicians should be banned from speaking at women’s marches.

You're an interesting and engaging person and more people need to be exposed to your well thought out, insightful viewpoints.
More people need to go follow @Sarah_Alice_X as a matter of urgency.
It quite literally demonstrated the gender paradigm
and instead of praising her for her courage in achieving something extraordinary, people are tearing her down because she didn't give Albo the heroes welcome they felt he deserved. And no, this doesn't detract from the discussion around gendered violence, it should be
HOW ARE PPL NOT SEEING THIS IS A MAJOR PART OF THE PROBLEM!? So freaking disappointed right now. Screw all the Albo apologists. Nothing is getting fixed in this country while we continue to make excuses for violent men. 😡
Albo visited trauma on a woman who had already suffered abuse at the hands of other men. All this has been excused, as men in this country are repeatedly excused of their violence against women, because they are "good blokes" who are liked in the community.
When asked in an interview about his incident with Sarah, saying the day had been emotional for her - the tired old trope of the emotional woman. Albo abused his power & position in society to take down a "defiant woman" who "forgot her place."
Watching a vulnerable, young, 1st Nations woman cry in the arms of her comrades, then continuing to speak as though all is fine & dandy. Callous disregard for her trauma at the least. At the worst, possible satisfaction that she's learned her place.
"I'm the prime minister!" Asserting his authority & power over Sarah when she asked if he should speak. Lying about his prior contact with WWYW about the rally. What purpose did his blatant defaming of Sarah have other than to "teach her who's boss & don't you forget it"?
I'm furiously disappointed in those left wingers who ignore the red flags in his behaviour cos he's on their fav political team. Where's your moral fibre? You know damn well you'd be condemning his actions if he was Dutton or Morrison. Your team is more important than the cause.
Other than a photo op for himself & ensuing media attention for himself, what material action has he committed to for the well-being of women in this country? Oh, a national cabinet. Whoopdedo. I wonder what paper, committee or royal commission will come from that? 🙄
"At least he turned up." "At least he didn't say we're lucky not to be shot." We need to stop accepting the least from mediocre men. "We should be grateful he attended." Why? He reduced the organisor to tears. He gaslit & defamed her. He didn't commit to any material change.
🧵 The abuse Sarah from WWYW has received in defence of (arguably) the most powerful man in the land, highlights exactly the problem Aus has in making any changes around men's violence towards women.
There's a lot of criticism of Sarah who organised the women's march around how she behaved, and I think people wilfully overlook that both the women's march and March4Justice were organised by very ordinary people who found themselves in an extraordinary position. 1/
