She was a true hero for so many of us. She had a backbone of steel and that steel had an edge of wit like a thrice sharpened blade.
I grew my courage as a result of her being willing to stand out and proud for women, in spite of the threats she received.
Her and Mr. Menno were so great for raising awareness and bringing humor to those of us processing the horror of what was happening in our communities.
I hope she has ascended to a place of peace and is watching from on high as we win.
Same. She spoke the truth, and did so with a razor sharp sense of humor (I loved the way she'd reply to Riley Dennis videos and dryly tear him to shreds).
Love her, had just found her in 2018 only to lose her the next year. She was one of the handful of people to help me understand why the democrats went nuts. Magdalen Berns, Hands Across the Aisle, where I came across WoLF, Benjamin Boyce who chronicled the debacle at Evergreen College, and finally the documentary by Mike Nayna on Brett Weinstein and Heather Heying of the Evergreen debacle really opened my eyes to what was rapidly coming our way and how it would manifest. I watched all Magdalen’s Videos and loved her inter actions with Kellie Jay Keen, another heroine of mine.
I am not inclined to cry often, but this tribute moved me to tears. I encountered Magdalen's voice and visage only after she was gone. I am so grateful for her and that we have access to recordings that convey not just her words but her uncompromising spirit. I drink from my "I'd rather be rude then a feckin' liar" mug for daily inspiration. Thanks, Kara!
When I first dipped my toe into TERFdom, it was by watching her YouTube videos. I remember being so immensely sad when I realized that by the time I learned of her, she'd already left us. I hope her videos are archived. I remember panicking early on that they'd somehow disappear.
I just added her birthday to my calendar so I can remember it every year. 💚🤍💜
JKR led me to Magdalen Berns, and Magdalen peaked me.
Like so many others, I first heard Magdalen's voice after she was gone. But she remains the voice in the wilderness calling us all forward in this fight.
I'd rather be called a transphobe than go down in history as a feckin' liar.

Cheers to her, and a toast in her name!
What a beautiful tribute piece.
She peaked the fuck out of me.
RIP, Magdalen.

I believe you did the same to me
Thank you so much for this inspiring tribute.

Did she do videos with Kellie Jay? Or were they interacting on X?

I said it on X but I'll put my comment here, too.
