Subscribe to our Newsletter today Hatchets night on the town began at one bar where she and her two friends set up three small signs reading TRANSWOMEN ARE MEN, NO MEN IN SPORTS ITS NOT SAFE + NOT FAIR, and A MAN IN A DRESS IS A MAN IN A DRESS.And they waited to see what would happen. Last night we decided to do a very quiet and peaceful action. We ended up having tomato ketchup thrown all over us, drinks thrown at us, threatened by bar staff and the police called to arrest us. I wondered how such a quiet thing would go. Here is how pic.twitter.com/xJnYJHKlCL Jean Hatchet (@JeanHatchet) October 26, 2024The idea was to see reactions in a normal bar on truthful statements about the reality of sex versus the nefarious gender, Hatchet recounted in one of multiple posts about the self-aggrandizing action. We werent saying anything. We werent giving our views out loud. We just wondered what people would do if they looked at a quiet truth written on boards.Hatchet claimed she had supporters among the unsuspecting Friday night patrons whom she imposed her views on. A man came up to say he agreed with them, she recounted.There were curious looks, some photos taken from a distance at the first bar, she said. Then a middle-aged man at the side of us got up and called us disgusting and transphobes.'Hatchet took it in stride and moved her protest to another bar, next door.Different crowd, Hatchet said of her second target. Non-binary feelz on the bar staff.The three women set up their signs again, this time in front of a large screen TV showing a football game a noisy gesture despite not giving our views out loud.Thats when the bar manager approached to say hed heard complaints; the women needed to take their signs down. They refused.Minutes later, the three got the Posie Parker treatment and were doused in ketchup the same way the notorious British TERF was while on her hate tour of New Zealand last year.I dont know if it was the same man, Hatchet reported, I think it was, came back over as we sat trying to clean clothes a bit and recover ourselves. He threw a drink at us. And ran off again. At this point the police arrived. A group of women behind had been calling us b***hes. It got loud. At that point, Hatchet started recording, as police asked them to leave the building over their protests that theyd been assaulted.Outside we were told that we were the aggressors. That we had thrown tomato ketchup. That we had thrown drinks. We were the ones covered in tomato ketchup and drinks, Hatchet said of the groups interaction with police.A look at Hatchets video tells a different story of police trying to diffuse a fraught situation. Cops told Hatchet they didnt know who the aggressors were, or at least they werent saying. Badge numbers were recorded.Therere going to be at least two sides of the story, the lead officer reasoned with Hatchet. We didnt do anything, Hatchet replied. There are no two sides.Hatchets transphobia has made headlines before. As the Taliban was poised to take control in Afghanistan three years ago, she inserted herself into the conversation about womens rights under the incoming authoritarian regime.When the Taliban force women to cover up how many men will want to identify as women? she wrote on Twitter.
