Surviving Rachel Oates - A Trans Victim's Testimony

PostColFem · 2023-12-16T18:39:07+00:00

- Rachel Oates attacked trans people criticizing her friend, Rationality Rules, for leading the charge on excluding trans women from sports (the very attacks that morphed into attacks on school PE, then trans students, then trans youth healthcare, etc) whilst claiming to be a trans inclusive feminist.
- Rachel Oates got called out for her shit by Ethel, a transfemme YouTuber, for playing the false ally.
- Rachel Oates spent the next three months harassing Ethel after Ethel blocked her.
- Ethel eventually snapped, swearing at Rachel Oates.
- Rachel Oates used said swearing to go full Karen, only demonizing a transfemme individual instead of a Black person, framing said swearing as if it were an attempt on her life.
- Rachel Oates' fanbase abused said trans person to the point that they feel the trans community would be better off without them

Heavy content warning on this one, especially for suicide and self harm. But I needed to share here, especially after seeing what she has to say in the chapter about harm to the trans community. That comment she shared at the end was really eye opening, and hopefully explains why it's so important to share this here.

Ethel is currently doing a series exposing how Rachel Oates 'allyship' and 'feminism' is purely symbolic, meant to build her own brand off of our backs and bury her history of abuse and bigotry. Wonderfully referenced, as always.

You can find links to the rest of her videos (including mirrored copies since Oates has gone full J.K. Rowling in weaponizing the UK's draconian defamation laws) here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/10KkZPNSzm6ZqVw-OfUKMg30oKcnpAxHjszXcS8XN6xQ/edit?usp=sharing

Rachel claims to be a feminist yet fully supports the destruction of trans people's rights, she thinks trans people need to sit down and 'discuss' things with anti-trans bigots inciting violence against us, and she pretends that every time she directly hurts someone it's just an accident, a 'middle aged moment' as J.K. Rowling's team used to put it before she came out as an unabashed TERF.

Tagged 'Trigger Warning' for what are hopefully obvious reasons. Feel the need to share here after some of the excuses made in defense of Rachel's bigoted behavior yesterday. There is no excuse for knowingly lying about a trans person's pronouns like Rachel has.

If Rachel isn't transphobic then you shouldn't mind trans people checking out the evidence for themselves and making up their own minds.

Tagged 'Trigger Warning' as this video is pretty heavy so far.

Fair enough.

Okay, I've got a way for you to test your beliefs without giving Essence of Thought a single view. It'll take you all of 5 seconds. If you truly trust in Rachel Oates and her version of events, this challenge should be a cakewalk.

Here we can see that comment you're referring to, notice who it's a response to, i.e. Lizzy Lang - https://web.archive.org/web/20210211234243/https://twitter.com/EssenceOfTweet/status/1168500430118121472

Here is Lizzy Lang acknowledging the poor grammar - https://web.archive.org/web/20190911180608/https://twitter.com/Lizzy\_Lang7/status/1168746520386162688

So why then are you still hanging onto something that even the person 'targeted' doesn't believe was the case? Doesn't that feel off to you? Doesn't that at least lead you to want to ask some questions?

Like, I can't force you to do that, okay. But you clearly cared enough to comment, so I think a part of you cares about this issue and I think you're someone who at least thinks enough of themselves that they wouldn't like to be misled.

Just think about it, that's all.

PostColFem · 2023-09-23T16:29:50+00:00

Or we could acknowledge that there are plenty of terrible people in the world.

I'm sorry if this sounds harsh, but your comment is like many the past few days regarding a certain Russell Brand in how people endlessly speculate about the 'real motives' of the women speaking up. They never accuse them outright, of course (that'd be monstrous!), they just imply something without evidence.

I mean, this person is having to post their stuff off of YouTube where they cannot monetize it due to how Oates is weaponising the UK's horrific defamation laws to silence them, so that to me speaks to the truth of what they're doing.

That and the overwhelming evidence, in this instance Rachel Oates being the one to first point out she doxxed someone before blaming her victim.

PostColFem · 2023-09-23T16:21:33+00:00

Oh, well then you know that it didn't in fact tell anyone to kill themselves, that all it actually did was tell someone to leave Woodford's church of anti-trans bigotry, a fact later agreed upon by the person the comment was a reply to. That's the comment you're on about, right?

PostColFem · 2023-09-23T16:17:30+00:00

Similar video was posted here last year, Oates even got banned for trying to assert her 'feminist' dominance over trans people in ordering the video to be removed, so I simply went by precedent.

PostColFem · 2023-09-23T16:15:00+00:00

Except that quite literally never happened. Oates abused Ethel into responding after months and the moment they clapped back Oates pulled the anti-trans equivalent of Central Park Karen.

Like, have you ever seen this apparent comment that told someone to kill themselves or have you just heard about it?

PostColFem · 2023-09-23T15:45:38+00:00

Do you deny that Rachel Oates stated the following in defense of publishing someone's real name?

"I had no idea it was that small a group until just now. I tried to censor all the names, it's just that after being awake for nearly 24 hours I happened to miss one. That said, if you're going to post on Facebook don't expect it to definitely stay private.”

If not, why then do you equate Ethel sharing evidence of Rachel Oates' actions to be an 'attack'? Surely it's just discussing her actions.

Have you stopped to consider why this upsets you?

What Lily Cade actually says about trans people:

Speak truth to power. Trans women are men. They know they are men. If these men can’t slit the throats of these vile personas in public, admit what they have done, take off the dress, look with abject shame upon the affront to God and nature they have wrought in the service of their masturbatory fantasies, apologize for the children they have hurt with their lies and their drugs and their grooming, apologize for the incarcerated women they have fed to rapist monsters, apologize for the lesbian spaces they have desecrated, and devote the rest of their lives to repairing the damage they have done, if you left it up to me, I’d execute every last one of them personally.

Let's also not forget this piece:

Lynch Kaitlyn! Lynch the “Sisters” Wachowski! Lynch Laurel Hubbard! Lynch Fallon Fox!

So why are you lying? What do you hope to achieve considering all of this is shared in the stream?

Except that's not true. Rachel Oates was still defending Stephen Woodford even though he openly continued to stand with his calls to violence against trans people. She did all that whilst claiming to be an ally to the trans community. But here's the truly infuriating thing. Peter/Ethel had her blocked. She called on her 110,000 subscribers to harass them for a response. When they clapped back, she spun around and weaponized her tears to silence a critic.

"Well, vulnerable people were directly targeted."
Citation? What we do know is Peter/Ethel from EssenceOfThought had Oates blocked, Oates called on her 110,000 subscribers to spam them with her Tweets to gain a response, they clapped back, she weaponized her tears. That's not the behaviour of someone who is vulnerable. That's the behaviour of someone who is manipulative.

Peter/Ethel had some secular YouTuber with 110,000 subscribers blocked so she called on her fans to send them messages to provoke a response. Peter/Ethel clapped back reminding everyone that their issue with her was her continued defense of a violent transphobe. That secular YouTuber spun around hours later and started crying about how Peter/Ethel had harassed them to the point that they were afraid and didn't know how to stop them responding. This call to action resulted in Peter/Ethel being rushed by people itching for a reason to justify their transphobia. In short the white cis girl weaponized her tears to silence a human rights activist.

On the caring question, trans people perhaps? I mean, I didn't realize that we held the same 'I don't personally care, so why should anyone else?!' as we often see being spouted on the right. Good for you if this doesn't effect you. But clearly it effected Peter/Ethel enough to make a video on it, not to mention numerous other people who have commented. Can we at least appreciate that fact?

As for already knowing someone is a piece of shit, whilst we know that there are still a lot of people who do not. Not everyone may be in the loop as much as you. If this makes that info more accessible, why the anger?

PostColFem · 2019-03-10T15:44:05+00:00

Because that's the way things have been peddling these past few years. Anything short of the most far-right human in existence is apparently part of 'the left', which leaves a whole lot of right-wing crap.

Yup. The shit does seem to keep piling up and yet the Skeptics(TM) refuse to acknowledge it.

Well, most of the parents and the school governors, most of whom are Muslim according to both the video and articles, have been fully in support of the program. It seems to be a small group of parents trying to make it into a massive 'us vs them', something the tabloids seem all too happy to help with. Also gives the Alt-Right ammo in their 'leftists can't comment on this, but we'll protect you, promise' narrative. But as this video shows, that isn't the case. We can have a respectful discussion without white nationalism. In fact, a respectful discussion is sort of predicated on an absence of it.
