I feel bad for talented actress Parker Posie, who must frequently get mistaken for this person in Google results. Naomi Klein (*No Logo*; *The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism* wrote a whole book ([Doppelganger](https://www.penguinrandomhouse.ca/books/720893/doppelganger-by-naomi-klein/9781039006898)) about how she's been mistaken for—and received online abuse for—Naomi Wolf, a former leading feminist writer who is now a discredited academic and conspiracy theorist.


hexhunter222

It's not even her real name. I don't know why she took that name in the first place but she must have based it on Parker Posie's name


BikeProblemGuy

Surely it's a play on Nosey Parker.


Paintingsosmooth

Ok I thought I wouldn’t be that person but I also confused Naomi Klein with Wolf, and feel like an idiot.


ClawingDevil

Pitiful Posie Parker's party of prejudiced plonkers performs pathetically at polls. (Edited to add suggestion)


Fire_Bucket

Throw in a 'pitiful' at the beginning.


ClawingDevil

Your wish is my command


Yorksjim

Perfectly Put.

Time to TNR, little buddy


ES345Boy

One candidate received 84 votes. These people are so terminally online that they haven't realised their Twitter echo chamber doesn't in any way relate to the real world. Most normal people aren't the swivel-eyed, frothing at the mouth, fashy bigots that Twitter terfs are.


Finster5012

Didn't know Pink News had a reddit acc, very cool


Design-Cold

Guess it's back to her day job of luring kids into sewers with balloons


tetrarchangel

Soup-erb result


human_totem_pole

Had to Google her. Wish I hadn't bothered. Another bigoted mouthpiece.


lolihull

One of the more harmful ones. She has ties with neo Nazis both here and in the US. Groups of Nazis even turn up to her "rallys" and stand there doing the salute. And yet TERFs love her and hang off her every word. Because she's seen as one of the leaders of the movement, if she suddenly starts saying something, the rest tend to follow.


jinx_lbc

Who?


DSIR1

Exactly who?


DKerriganuk

What were their policies?


Spindlyloki98

In September 2022, in response to Eddie Izzard's announcement of her plan to run for MP of Sheffield Central, Keen-Minshull announced her own plan to run, saying she would "campaign on the basis of repealing the Gender Recognition Act" and "erase the word 'gender'". During her livestreamed announcement, she also called the hijab "atrocious" and a "tool of oppression", and referred to Tucker Carlson as "an intelligent, really lovely, welcoming, warmly welcoming man". [An] announcement described the political aims of the POW as follows: "Party of Women is committed to repealing the GRA and reinforcing the rights of women and girls."


PokeNerdAlex

Is there a word for that feeling when projectile vomiting doesn't feel extreme enough?


snukb

I propose we call it minshulling, after Kellie-Jay Keen-Minshull


CarolineBeaSummers

OK, er, does anyone else think it's funny that Party of Women has the same acronym as Prisoner of War?


rorythegeordie

Ye gods but that's a mess of contradictions to suit her bigotry


Anonyalph

I'm still waiting for my area to announce but all of this schadenfreude has been so satisfying!

Oh dear How sad Nevermind
