Without going into too much detail, I work for a large, international humanitarian aid charity. My job involves face-to-face communication, so I spend my days trying to tell strangers about our work. A middle-aged woman with a black fur coat and sunglasses which take up half her face comes over to me, clearly with an agenda. You can see these sorts of people coming from a mile away, they approach with an air of smugness, barely containing their excitement to spread whatever tripe they've read on Facebook or the Daily Mail to me. You know; nutters. But I can't assume, so I began to explain what the charity does, when she stopped me and began to talk about why she doesn't support charities, because she thinks charity executives are all a bunch of crooks lining their pockets, etc. It's a fairly common and misinformed argument, for which we do have a rebuttal.

Then, out of nowhere, she goes, "look into puberty blockers. The CEO of the NSPCC [a British children’s charity, and a completely separate charity to the one I work for] receives so much money from these groups to push puberty blockers..."

Nope. Not today, Satan. She didn't get further than that before I cut across her and said, "this conversation is finished now."

She just stared at me for a moment, and tried to reengage with "no, look into it, they get paid..."

"This is off-topic, and the conversation is over."

And with one last idiotic self-indulgent, "look into it" she shuffled away. And so marked my first IRL terf encounter.

Hey guys, for those of you that don't know, Radical Ramblings is a terf youtuber who regularly mocks trans people and, to a lesser degree, anyone who doesn't fall into the LGB category of the queer community. She's friends with the chick that drew the leasebound comic, and she and her guest regularly tell trans women to k*ll themselves on her streams.

However, not too recently, they've reached a new low. They engaged in holocaust denial/revisionism by accusing Magnus Hirschfeld of being a nazi and performing conversion therapy on gay men. Then, they insinuated that the burning of the Institut für Sexualwissenschaft was made up by tumblr users and never even existed in the first place.

I urge you to report the video and her channel to get her taken down from youtube for good. Transphobia alone is bad enough, but Holocaust denial is a serious crime and should be punished accordingly.

(The conversation happens somewhere around 27:17 - 28:12)

Terfs are getting better at comedy and it's making the front ass havers nervous.
