| 1627967212408475649 | @silkiecarlo @GBNEWS @Telegraph Do you think maybe celebrating your media friends taking on positions at the most reactionary news outlet in the country undermines the integrity of your claims to be managing something called Big Brother Watch? | 86 |

| 1626124925126733824 | @Gothloretta @silkiecarlo It feels very “oh but she is just a hysterical woman”. Almost as though we should simply write someone off due to menopause and a substance issue. | 21 |
| 1625980183881605123 | @silkiecarlo So a man has been "excused" by the right-wing press for shooting his wife and daughter because she dared to get an "over-achieving" job and now the police are blaming their failure to solve a missing person case as the woman was "menopausal". This country is toxic. | 15 |
