Tasha Rose, a founder of ID, & in common with Posie works with US radical feminist/Christian Right coalition Hands Across the Aisle. Contrary to claims to be a friendly, informal alliance, members are highly skilled operatives of the theocratic Right. radicalmothering.wordpress.com/about/
Posie Parker also advertised her merchandise on the Illusions Destroyed site.

Several Assadists also spoke at the conference, including Vanessa Beeley. Here’s a write-up of the event in the Syria Times:

syriatimes.sy/american-write…
Eva Bartlett, Vanessa Beeley & Patrick Henningsen played high-profile roles in an international pro-Assad 'conspiracy theorist milieu'. This blog's account of them is accurate: libcom.org/blog/bonzo-goe… See s/shots for a key passage about these Assadists & their far-right links. ImageImageImage
Posie was snapped at the event in a selfie with Hans Lysglimt Johansen, a leader of the far-right Alliance party & holocaust denier. Posie & supporters expressed outrage at the photo being used as evidence of her own views, claiming to have no knowledge of this man/his beliefs. ImageImageImage
But she was at an event full of assorted cranks & bigots, exactly the kind of context in which you might bump into a rabid antisemite. Whilst she couldn’t have known who he was at the time, she seems to have not attempted to find out anything about the conference in advance. ImageImageImage
On Nov 16, 2021, Sherronna Bishop was raided by the FBI with regard to "an ongoing investigation into the alleged election system breach in Mesa County" - the leaking of election data to Q Anon conspiracy theorists.

nytimes.com/2022/09/14/us/…
Bishop is a fan of violent white supremacist group The Proud Boys, & has publicly praised them, saying, "thank god for you guys and the Proud Boys."

In fact, Bishop live streamed with the Proud Boys the day before her live stream with Posie Parker.
abcnews.go.com/Politics/gop-c…
Bishop now has her own TV channel & line of merch. Note the style of merch on sale (very similar to Standing For Women merch).

americasmom.net/product-page/l…
Posie made a subsequent statement about the interview claiming to have done a cursory check on Gariepy & found nothing ‘unusual’ or ‘problematic’: 'Had I known that this individual held white supremacy in such esteem I would have challenged him directly or chosen not to appear.' Image
Mumsnet chat about the Gariepy interview:

mumsnet.com/Talk/womens_ri…
Benjamin is known for his antifeminist, pro-Brexit & anti-Muslim content. Responding to Jess Phillips' complaint that she frequently received rape threats from men online, Benjamin tweeted to her: "I wouldn't even rape you.”

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Benj…
Benjamin helped launch far-right Hearts of Oak, & in Sept 2022, the organisation live streamed from Standing For Women's Let Women Speak event in Brighton, provoking controversy. Posie announced later she wouldn't prevent them from attending future events. heartsofoak.org
Images from Hearts of Oak's Gettr account as they live streamed inside the Speakers' area of the Let Women Speak event. ImageImageImageImage
Posie Parker recalls her interview with Benjamin: ‘We had a really nice chat… I was a feminist… he’s not… & I think we’ve got so much in common… I really like him, I really like Sargon & his little team today… really just decent nice blokes, which I’m not surprised about.’
Mumsnet chat about Posie Parker's interview with Carl Benjamin:

mumsnet.com/Talk/womens_ri…
Interesting to note that Carl Benjamin appeared on Jean-Francois Gariepy's live stream called 'Ethnostate Rumble' to discuss 'racial nationalism vs. civic nationalism'. ImageImageImageImage
Richie Allen’s other guest in the same show was Mark Collett, a neo-Nazi & former head of the youth wing of the British National Party (BNP). He currently leads Patriotic Alternative, a neo-Nazi organisation.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Coll…
jewishnews.timesofisrael.com/patriotic-alte…
Similarly to Hearts of Oak, Patriotic Alternative (including Mark Collett en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Coll…) has (violently, at times) protested Drag Queen Story Hour as a way to fuel their anti-left, anti-LGBT, culture war agenda.
patrioticalternative.org.uk/drag_queen_sto…
The Richie Allen Show emerged from David Icke's short-lived broadcast The People's Voice. Anti-racist advocacy group Hope Not Hate describes it as an 'anti-Semitic conspiracy theory show'.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Richi…
The show hosted Nick Kollerstrom, a British Holocaust denier, on Holocaust Memorial Day 2016, wherein Kollerstrom rejected the existence of gas chambers at Auschwitz concentration camp.
Please Note: Here's another link to the Richie Allen Show, Dec 1st 2020, Posie Parker episode, as the first one appears to be broken:

An example of anti-Muslim content from Kay Soco films:

An example of antisemitic content from Kay Soco films:
Further interview with Kay Soco at Standing for Women Speakers’ Corner, August 30, 2020 (from 1.15 PP admits her group provoked a confrontation with anti racism/BLM people passing by)
Kay Soco was also given a platform and spoke:
Carlson was described by Politico as "perhaps the highest-profile proponent of 'Trumpism'" & said to have influenced some of Trump's decisions as president. He has promoted conspiracy theories about topics such as COVID-19 & the Jan 6 US Capitol attack. nytimes.com/interactive/20…
Carlson is a proponent of the dangerous racist 'Great Replacement Theory', which claims white Christians are being intentionally replaced by immigrants, people of colour & non-Christians. GRT has been touted by multiple racially motivated mass shooters. huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/tucker-c…
Posie Parker is effusive in her admiration for Tucker Carlson, calling the theocratic fascist, ‘Respectful, interested & an absolute delight to spend time with… Not to mention his audience of millions… here I am, under his armpit…’

Gorka worked for Hungary's defence ministry 1993-8, & tried to establish a radical right-wing party in 2007. A gun fanatic, he was wanted on weapons charges in Hungary in 2016. theguardian.com/us-news/2018/j…

rumble.com/v1tonx0-the-cu…
Known for his anti-Islamic views, Gorka has also been accused of having ties to Hungarian Nazi group, Vitezi Rend.

cardin.senate.gov/press-releases… Image
Posie Parker signal boosted Gorka’s own endorsement of the dangerous propaganda film 2000 Mules (by Dinesh D'Souza), which draws on True the Vote info to allege massive ballot fraud by the Democrats in the 2020 election.

In 2018, SPLC Hatewatch documented TPUSA’s links to white supremacists. The Anti-Defamation League reported links to extremism.

Here is the same Jon Root from the TPUSA Youtube channel, & who interviewed PP, celebrating the overturning of Roe v Wade.
At this year's TPUSA Fest event the line-up included: Donald Trump & Donald Trump Jnr, Tucker Carlson, Lauren Boebart & Kyle Rittenhouse (who shot 3 people on the streets of Kenosha, Wisconsin), & who was given a rockstar’s welcome & standing ovation.
Far-right commentator Sophie Corcoran, who is being supported by the UK wing of Turning Point, was platformed by Posie at her Let Women Speak Brighton event. Posie later clarified after SC's speech caused controversy that Corcoran was always welcome to speak at her events. ImageImageImageImage

1/ Here's an excellent example of an ad hominem attack being used in the absence of an argument.

Note the 'Head girl' & *Yawn* jibes. Both are designed to deflect from the article's content by implying its author (Bindel) is 'prissily' telling others what to think & is boring.
2/ If this is the best we can do in GC feminism then we are truly stuffed. Twitter is a terrible medium for communicating. But issues like whether or not aligning with the RR is morally objectionable desperately needs a conversation. Piling on bad faith does nothing to help that.
3/ We can all react in annoyance. And people understandably can get defensive about their work being criticised. But this issue particularly seems to illicit a multitude of personal insults, smears & dismissal overall from within the GC movement.

1/ What is the partnership between WoLF and Alliance Defending Freedom?

WoLF has taken funding from ADF at least once, used ADF affiliated lawyers twice, written amicus briefs in defense of an ADF client twice, in addition to attending a rally in support of an ADF client. Image
2/ It appears to be a working partnership where ADF provides legal counsel and services for WoLF in return for WoLF filing amicus briefs for ADF clients or interests.

rightwingwatch.org/post/adf-plans… Image
3/ ADF claims over 3000 affiliated lawyers. One of them is Matt Shea of Washington currently being investigated for domestic terrorism and who has been associated with white nationalism.

1/ How funding from powerful Religious Right org (with ties to the Trump admin) Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) has gagged radical feminist orgn Women's Liberation Front (WoLF).

About ADF: iamadf.org/about/
& splcenter.org/fighting-hate/…

About WoLF: womensliberationfront.org
2/ Who are ADF? Alliance Defending Freedom opposes abortion, believes health workers should be allowed to refuse abortions on religious grounds, oppose same sex marriage & civil unions, & adoptions by same sex couples. They actively campaign & organise for these beliefs. Image
3/ Wolf (Women's Liberation Front) are a US radical feminist organisation campaigning for women's rights.

In 2016 they formed a working partnership with ADF, which has only grown in strength over the last few years.

Significantly, they also received funding from ADF.

1/ Bilek uses the word 'grooming' to imply trans people, by being trans, are like abusers. She also likens their mere existence to gaslighting & DARVO tactics (used in domestic abuse). So, Bilek conflates trans people with abusers & GC as its victims.
the11thhourblog.com/post/the-groom…
2/ Which, of course, is disgusting & disingenuous. She declares 'There is no "trans."' Her position is extremist. It is one that GCs have been accused of, & had to fight off for years: that we want to mandate trans out of existence. But this is NOT the reasonable GC position.
3/ Bilek calls trans people 'sex parody performances'. Yet she's on the US Christian Right who push regressive sex stereotypes. Does she include the multitude of NON trans, gender conforming people in her 'sex parody performances'? Are they also gaslighting GCs by existing?

1/ Posie Parker has come out in favour of Trump for the US election. (See her exact words pics 2&3). Gail Dines (author of Pornland) called it out on her FB page (pic1). A 758 comment thread followed re whether or not feminists should support a fascist. facebook.com/gaildines ImageImageImage
2/ Following her original post, Dines apologised to Posie Parker in a second post, for what she claimed was her mistake of making Parker a scapegoat for women's fears around Trump winning the US election. ImageImage
3/ Dines is correct in that it's not necessary or edifying to personally attack Parker. The facts speak loudly for themselves.

It is disappointing, though, that Dines apologised for calling out how certain GCs ARE aligning with the religious/far right over one issue: trans.

1/ Thread on Christian activist Lynn Meagher (Minn Lynn) & her links to anti-LGBT hate group Mass Resistance, her links to the Proud Boys, & her close connections to 'radical feminist' orgn Women's Lib Front (WoLF) & UK's Posie Parker/Standing For Women.
2/ Lynn Meagher (also goes by Minn Lynn) is a member of anti LGBT, anti-feminist, racist & anti immigration, anti abortion hate group Mass Resistance.

massresistance.org
3/ Homophobic articles on the Mass Resistance site include: 'Health Hazards of Homosexuality' Dr. Paul Church attacked for telling the medical truth about homosexuality' & 'Tax-funded booklet leading teen males into dangerous "gay" lifestyle'.
