I'll get my tinfoil hat out - but I heard whispers that there was going to be a broader cultural attack on saidit. Whereby rogue accounts try to post extreme material on our forums, and affiliates of those accounts upvote that material to try to make us look like vehement transphobes / racists / anti-Semites / etc. So normal people who might be curious about GC views will be instantly turned off and go back to the TRAs. I have a feeling this might be that.

Yeah it's honestly kind of hateful. One of the things I've always appreciated about the modern radfem community that brought me to their side is that they've generally been respectful and held their heads high despite all the nasty attacks from TRAs.

I really wish mods would put a ban on hateful content that doesn't have a real point like this.

Yes, "they" are currently doing something similar on r/AskGayBros back over on Reddit, sockpuppeting posts that fish for replies that demonize and ostracize trans-gay-identified women.
