"Be ready to shut these fascist terfs down."
False claims were made that The Post Millennial's editor-at-large Andy Ngo would be present, prompting a wider call to action.
The protest is being organized by Sovereign Women Speak, a grassroots feminist organization that protests against woke gender ideology, specifically trans-identified males being accepted as women and evading female-only spaces.
Twitter user @ri0tdad posted information about the counterprotest, directing Antifa comrades to mask up, come equipped with umbrellas, and to carry out acts of violence and intimidation against the female group standing up for women's rights.
The account posted false information regarding TPM's senior editor Andy Ngo's attendance at the event, which resulted in the "call to action."
The Antifa account wrote in a post, "Call to action. Andy Ngo, who provides kill lists to attomwaffen has been invited along with GAG. If you can attend, show up. If you cannot, please share." Ngo had not been invited and has no plans to attend.
The attached call-to-action posted to the account reads:
"SWS has a history of working with white supremacist Proud Boys and III%. They are a threat to the trans community in Lynnwood and neighboring areas," they wrote. "They invited fascist scum Andy Ngo, Brandi Kruse [journalist], 'anti-groomers' group, and others to their protest at Olympus Spa, which has discriminatory practices denying access to transwomen."
Furthermore, the event flyer encourages the community to come out and "support queer youth and young adults as we rally against these fascists."
A set of demands were also listed on the flyer which includes to "practice protest safety and mask up, umbrella up, and be ready to shut these fascist terfs down."
The 43-year-old man behind the Twitter account @ri0tdad identifies as a he/him, they/them, comrade/anarchist. Aside from threatening a group of women with violence, according to his Twitter bio, he is an "Antifascist Punk Rock Dad" from the Pacific Northwest and claims to provide "mutual aide in a mutal combat state."
In photos posted to his online social media accounts, he is seen wearing dresses and tights.
Other photos posted online of @ri0tdad, who wears his hair in a hot pink mohawk, shows that he wears an "anti-Nazi" patch on his clothing.
Safe Lynwood, a community group that advocates for public safety and mostly consists of families, announced that they would also be attending the protest on Saturday.
"We will be at the Saturday rally to support local minority owned business Olympus Spa and to support single sex spaces for women and girls," the group said on Twitter.
The ruling said that the Olympus Spa, with locations in Lynnwood and Tacoma, could not constitutionally prevent biological males from coming to the spa and bathing naked with women. It had previously been found that the spa was guilty of discrimination against trans-identified males who claim to be female, and tried to force the spa to change its policy. The complainant, Haven Wilvich, first submitted his complaint in 2020 after being refused entry on the grounds that he was male and had a penis, which was not what the female-only spa was looking for.
Spa owner Myoon Woon Lee and president Sun Lee cited the Korean tradition of jjimjilbang (sex-segregated bathhouses) and their Christian faith when justifying the policy, and refused to back down when informed by the WSRHC less than a year later that they had discriminated against Wilvich.
However, the judge ruled against the Christian women and their spa will now have to force women to bathe with naked men.

I find it despicable that Antifa keeps lying and claiming that people on the right are providing "kill lists" of all things. At some point, the people on that side should stand up and ask for evidence that Ngo, or anyone else for that matter, is actually doing anything even resembling that.
