No - if you click on the tweet you can read his thread. He gets to about tweet 12 or 13 before he acknowledges there's nothing there, and he pretends that using "may" in the first tweet is his cover.

He was saying he used a block list created by the other guy in the picture (but was wrong about that it seems) Probably should have edited his first tweet then. Can you edit tweets?

So H was using a blocklist, possibly one made by a predator? Downloading a piece of software doesn't make someone connected to its creator. Invoking a celebrity ("celebrity") is unnecessary, he could have simply talked abojt how the blocklist itself was made by the bloke.

It goes a bit further than clickbaity imo. Anyone reading this thread can swap their name for H from steps, and see how they would feel about that claim being made about them. I doubt many would settle at clickbaity. I'm sure there may well be further legal repercussions.

It's definitely designed to be clickbait and I doubt there will be legal repercussions, as mainstream publications do this literally every day. That's not to say that I agree with the practice, just that it's not at all unusual.

"IS PRINCE HARRY LINKED TO THE RUSSIAN MAFIA???"

Then 3 pages of waffle before "...no he isn't." This also doesn't originate from Graham Linehan, the "BlockedByHFromSteps" hashtag goes back a while and is how people discovered the "TERFblocker" list - the way to check if one is on said list, is to check if one is blocked by H from Steps. There is a genuine reason for the link and whether or not it's slanderous, it doesn't originate here.

I'd honestly steer well clear of this one or anything that looks vaguely like a defense of the TERFblocker list etc, personally. The stuff about the Challenors is very real, very disturbing, and... well... an exhibit A example of how laws and inclusion mechanisms designed to protect trans people have been exploited by criminals and paedophiles acting in bad faith.

I'm all but certain that it wasn't your intent to highlight the Challenors/TERFblocker.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aimee_Challenor

Just to clarify - whether or not it's true that Challenor is behind the TERFblocker programme, the facts are;

- TERFblocker exists and in many people's belief is linked to Challenor and was used extensively during that controversy.

- The Challenor family has links with things that are frankly unthinkable

- H from Steps used TERFblocker on his account, and thus The #BlockedByHfromSteps hashtag has become synonymous with TERFblocker.


...thus there is a link, if an indirect one. The "headline" is sensationalist and somewhat misleading, but it isn't factually false. You'd have to take everyone using the hashtag to court for defamation.

So H from steps is definitely linked to the rape and torture of a 10yr old girl? Even tenuously, and that's what we're going with?

user104658
06-01-2023, 04:06 PM
To offer some balance and at the risk of discussing something that might also be branded transphobic... if you read into the Challenors and Aimee it's quite clear, to me, that Aimee is likely a quite troubled individual and that her actions, as well as her transgender status, is most likely a result of childhood trauma at the hands of her monstrous father. This is why I generally think balance and proper assessment is so important. The Twitter Mob have Aimee Chellonor painted as a "weirdo accomplice" to the father and implicated in his crimes. I would counter that Aimee is almost certainly another of his victims, in some way or other.

The link from #BlockedbyHfromSteps to the Challenors isn't tenuous at all, though it would have been more honest to say, "what links being blocked by H from steps to this man". It's a clear and direct link if you know the context, I think part of the issue here is that for anyone who doesn't know the context none of it makes much sense at all. The issues then are the sensationalism and the lack of context.

It was Slim wot done it, there's a reason I said I'd simply steer well clear of the #BlockedByHFromSteps / TERFblocker debate. The pathway is clear and well worn - yes the tweeter knew exactly what he was doing when he made the tweet (generating outrage/sensationalism with the casual hints of homophobia) but the intent was clearly to re-highlight TERFblocker and the Challenor link, not H from Steps. And sharing it... does just that.

Basically - The guy in the first tweet who is a paedophile/sex offender made some app that blocks "terfs" on twitter so must have compiled some sort of list of people/accounts he considers to be Terfs, H from Steps must have blocked a load of twitter accounts recently so Graham (and others?) assumed that he used this block list app thing that the sex offender guy made and that's "the link" (I think that's it)

Yes but as I said above, multiple people noticed that they had been randomly blocked by a celebrity (H from Steps) despite never having any interaction with him, and that's what led to the discovery of the app, and the #BlockedByH meme.

Again I recognise that all of this assumes a level of background knowledge that many people seeing those tweets are not going to have, nor could they be expected to, and I acknowledge that he was deliberately trying to make that "gay people are linked to child molesters" link as mentioned by Liam, to generate deliberate outrage.

I think the whole thing is just a massive dog whistle to his own followers in all honesty.

Well... sort of.

The app was supposedly made or at least promoted by the daughter (trans woman, also a now-disgraced politician) of the offender, not the offender himself.

The daughter also has other links to child sex fetishism (hence being a now-disgraced politician). Also Stonewall.

H from Steps, or whoever controls his Twitter if he doesn't do it himself, definitely used the block list.

A lot of people have alerts set that show them who they've been blocked by - these people noticed they'd suddenly all been blocked by H from Steps

#BlockedByHFromSteps started trending

It was sleuthed that it was "TERFblocker" that had been used

Unfortunately forever linking TERFblocker with the hashtag about H from Steps.


Caveats being;

- It might not even have been made by Aimee Challenor

- Even if it was, people using it would have had no way of knowing that at the time

- Even if they did know of her involvement, people wouldn't necessarily have known who she is, what her history is or about her family (there is actually even more to that part of it)



It IS a tenuous link but I still maintain that the link exists because of the hashtag, and the hashtag long predates this tweet from Graham Linehan, though he is exploiting it. :shrug:


tl;dr MURKY AS **** and no one comes off well talking about this stuff so it should be left to rot along with the chap in prison.

Well there is a reason, it's just a convoluted and not very good reason.

I suppose important not to conflate "reason" with "justification". I would agree that there's no justification for making the link or furthering it by posting tweets like the one in question. That's a different discussion though when it comes down to it... "Is there a link" vs "did he do anything wrong and thus is it fair to highlight that link". Yes to the first, no to the second :shrug:.

The twitter hashtag is the semantic link in and of itself, the accuracy of it isn't relevant because I'm not defending or validating it as a genuine link other than pointing out how the topics are linked. I've already said they're unfairly linked. But things being unfairly linked doesn't ... unlink them... and me, you or anyone else knowing that the link is wrong doesn't erase the hashtag.

I know that the intent is to put a spotlight on Linehan but as far as picking an example tweet goes... this one flies very close to the sun. H from Steps has done nothing wrong at all but the Challenors have clear and demonstrable links to child sex fetishism, Aimee Challenor is a trans woman, and her status as such allowed her to rise in mainstream politics when she otherwise would not have (no other notable achievements or qualifications of any kind).

Not sure why we've put it back in reverse, and are now driving back over the dead horse.

You've admitted numerous times that H has done nothing wrong, and that's all that needed to be said - the challenor stuff could be a good thread/discussion for a slow day next week, but in terms of anything that Linehan wrote about H, or H himself, is completely irrelevant.

The thread is about your signature, which pertains to three people; Linehan, H from Steps and Challenor (complete with picture) and the thread question is "is this (sig) ok?".

I explained the link, I specifically did not justify it. And if it's not about acceptable signatures then it's, somewhat ironically, just a petty dogwhistle.

I don't really care about that in all fairness, dogwhistling can be fun but this is over the line for me. If you're OK with leveraging a case involving the rape, torture and murder of a 10 year old girl to make a point about the unfair treatment of an adult man, I'll leave that to your own internal justification.

It's a bit too dystopian for me on a Saturday morning.

Actually it's worse than that - I think you chose it pointedly because Niamh questioned your last one on the grounds of it being defamatory, so you quickly chose this one in retort. So it's not even about H from steps, it's about you feeling personally wronged.

Niamh and I have been friends for a long, long, long, long time, and Niamh will confirm that if ever i have to speak to a mod about forum business, I purposefully avoid going to her.


I genuinely couldn't care less about anything you have to say about me, so I'm good with the rest.

You have no counterpoint. I didn't drag anyone into it, you know why you chose this tweet specifically as a replacement signature as well as I do. Maybe you thought the defamation dogwhistle was more subtle than it was. I'll leave you to it, you already know the choice of signature you've made is grubby. It's about a child rapist. Take a look at yourself. And if you don't see it then I don't think there's much hope for you at all.

As suggested, I've reported your signature.

i don't need a counter point. You spent all of yesterday pretending there was a link, then you've woke up today pretending to be outraged. The posts are in the thread.

Good job. That will probably be enough, but you may need one more (can't be sure) report to get it done, which shouldn't be too difficult.

Democracy in action - you love to see it.

There is a link.

And - despite my better judgement - I am outraged, I just kept a better lid on it yesterday. I attempted to raise
the same point gently in the very first post I made in this thread, giving the benefit of the doubt that you didn't know anything about the case.



I'd honestly steer well clear of this one or anything that looks vaguely like a defense of the TERFblocker list etc, personally. The stuff about the Challenors is very real, very disturbing, and... well... an exhibit A example of how laws and inclusion mechanisms designed to protect trans people have been exploited by criminals and paedophiles acting in bad faith.

I'm all but certain that it wasn't your intent to highlight the Challenors/TERFblocker.

You still don't but at this point it's because that's the choice you've made - you don't care / are not interested because it doesn't fit the picture you're trying to paint.

Like I said that's standard forum/social media but, again, in this case the underlying case at the root of it is several steps too far.

And that would be one thing if it was just a thread about the tweet. Which you could have done instead. But you chose to make it your signature. You chose to do that to dogwhistle your "good friend" Niamh, because why not? But the effect is that it's not confined to one thread that I could have ignored - the tweet was right there on your post in a completely unrelated thread that was the first one I opened, so I came back to this one to address it.

To be the most succinct and just answer the thread topic of "is this sig OK" the answer should and hopefully is just "no".

Well it's reported now, so we'll see what happens. I Remember when I had a Saville avatar and no one cared :laugh:

As this thread lives rent free in my head it seems, I've just clocked what the point of the thread probably is. I still think it's the wrong leverage to have used.

It's not the thread though is it? I'll make it really easy for you. I had a previous sig that was about Linehan, I replaced it with a different one about Linehan. No telepathy or mystic megification required.

Seriously dude, if this is the manufactured outrage hill you're prepared to die on, then that really is a shame. You don't have to like it or me, or agree with anything I say or do, but you seriously need to chill.

This is all you, yet again. I haven't baited you or anything, you've decided to make this whole load of bollocks up - again.

I actually want to thank you - after you left last time it gave me a different perspective on the forum, and how I may have also displayed the same behaviours towards others, that you were showing towards me - I don't get involved in any of that nonsense anymore, I just post my posts, keep it moving, and let everyone else post their own posts. But seriously, this is weirdly tiring, and.at some point you just need to move on.

This will be my last post in this thread. You've got at least 4 reports (probably) by now, so there is no more that needs to be said from my perspective. So have at it.

For anyone who wants a breakdown of the above comment (as Slim isn't going to read it himself, though I think he should):

It's not the thread though is it? I'll make it really easy for you. I had a previous sig that was about Linehan, I replaced it with a different one about Linehan. No telepathy or mystic megification required.

"You've got it wrong, you're imagining things."

Seriously dude, if this is the manufactured outrage hill you're prepared to die on, then that really is a shame. You don't have to like it or me, or agree with anything I say or do, but you seriously need to chill.

"You're irrational, your upset is unwarranted, you need to chill out, you should keep calm like me."

This is all you, yet again. I haven't baited you or anything, you've decided to make this whole load of bollocks up - again.

"None of this has anything to do with me, it's all you, it's all in your head - as it always is. "

I actually want to thank you - after you left last time it gave me a different perspective on the forum, and how I may have also displayed the same behaviours towards others, that you were showing towards me - I don't get involved in any of that nonsense anymore, I just post my posts, keep it moving, and let everyone else post their own posts. But seriously, this is weirdly tiring, and.at some point you just need to move on. "If anything I should thank you, your crazy irrational ranting has allowed me to center myself and I can be happy about that. Again, I've done nothing, again, YOU need to calm down."

This is textbook. I've seen you do it to other people on here, I'm not going to not call it out when you're doing it here.
