Kellie-Jay Keen, who goes by @ThePosieParker on Twitter, was in Auckland, NZ over the weekend to give a talk on women’s rights.
She shared a video of how she was treated, and it’s actually quite terrifying and a little hard to watch:

If you’re not familiar with Keen’s message, you can find it here:
We are a global constituency of women. We focus specifically on the word “woman”, and other female language that clearly defines us, and our rights. The purpose of our campaign is to raise funds in order to promote the fight back against this global assault of women.
Throughout the legal framework of women’s sex based rights and protections we use the word “woman”. It is essential that this word is retained to mean “adult human female” only. Without this word all of our rights and protections are lost. Our rights were never created for our “gender” but our sex.
Our sex is female. The sex that bears children. The sex that requires maternity rights, privacy rights, equality with the male sex in the work place, specific health care issues, reproductive rights, and so on. If our rights become dependent upon “gender” then they are no longer women’s rights, they are “feminine” rights.
She’s not telling trans people they can’t exist. She’s advocating for the rights of biological women to be respected and protected, a message that seems to be stirring up a disturbing amount of hate, and borderline violence.
You may remember Keen from when she took a stand against the injustice of women swimmers being robbed of the chance to advance or win a title by having to compete against a biological male, and dropped this absolute classic:

People are starting to take notice of how women who try to speak up for themselves are being treated:

when I read accounts of this, I thought "ok, it's not great, but was it really THAT bad, come on."
after watching this video, I can say confidently, yes, it was that bad. maybe worse. https://t.co/RDZyrSKEH7

It was indeed that bad.
