I think Ovarit is a WONDERFUL and much-needed space for women, but it's really important that we also post on forums like SAIDIT, Twitter, etc., and especially Reddit, because if we just talk to ourselves on our own forums, we get nowhere.

We need everyone to know that there are women who are standing up to transgender activist demands.

So post on Ovarit and maybe double post here, or on Reddit or wherever, but get out to the big world and scream GC ideas, before we aren't allowed to.

BTW: Saidit has been under attack the last few days. Some think the attackers are the same r/AgainstHateSub Redditors that got GC subs banned from Reddit.

Also, I think that the SAIDIT founder who's transgender is a decent person who believes in free speech. He seems to have no problem with a GC sub on SAIDIT.

I agree that we need to post on places that are open to the public. Also, I've no interest in places that are by invite only; seems like a clique.

I think it’s only invite-only for the beta phase. They’re planning to open it up when they’re happy it’s stable and safe.

And there are plenty of codes for the asking.

Sorry, I didn't see your response regarding Ovarit being in the Beta phase before I typed mine. Great minds think alike!

[–]BEB 15 insightful - 1 fun15 insightful - 0 fun16 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

Please post GC stuff on the SAIDIT front page too.

I think Ovarit is Beta right now, and I think (but I could be remembering incorrectly) that it will be more open after the Beta phase.

Any Ovarit people who know?

Did you go to a university? Have you ever been on a job interview? Sometimes there's a wee little bar you have to hop over. It's ok.

Ovarit being invite code-only is just temporary until we're out of beta. All anyone has to do to get a code is send me a PM on here so LMK if you're interested!

[–][deleted] 5 insightful - 1 fun5 insightful - 0 fun6 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

The invite codes are temporary. Please PM flap for a code. I was a big fan of yours on r/gc and Ovarit needs to get its eloquent and whipsmart regulars “back.”

This! Frankly GC feminism will die on the vine if we isolate ourselves/get pushed into a tiny corner of the internet, talking only to each other. That was the pt of the ban, make us "irrelevant." And why we need to speak up.

Two of the AHS "super mods" is spamming and causing problems on Ruqqus, too.

Is one BardFin? Because the r/detrans people are claiming he's been trying to take over/ take down r/detrans too.

[–]AugustiJade 12 insightful - 3 fun12 insightful - 2 fun13 insightful - 3 fun -  (1 child)

He attacked a Star Trek sub over the weekend as well.

[–]BEB 12 insightful - 4 fun12 insightful - 3 fun13 insightful - 4 fun -  (0 children)

The NPR affiliate in Boston did a celebatory profile of Bardfin and his mates, which treat them like heroes.

The article is on s/LGBDroptheT if you want to read it. Scroll down the sub till you find it.

Yep.

[–]Whatsup 10 insightful - 2 fun10 insightful - 1 fun11 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

Wow he's still trying to do that? That dude lmao

My problem with Ovarit is that is ONLY for feminism and always will be. I'm interested in other stuff too and dont want to jump between multiple platforms.

[–][deleted] 15 insightful - 1 fun15 insightful - 0 fun16 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

We have plans down the line to expand the Ovarit spaces for more general topics and discussion. Right now since it's been less than a month since launch the priority is bringing over as many of the banned Reddit subs and their teams as we can.

[–]RevengeOfTheCis 7 insightful - 1 fun7 insightful - 0 fun8 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

I look forward to that! It would be great if Ovarit got to where there were enough general topics that new users start joining for non-feminism reasons, and they end up peaking after wandering to the GC topics lol. Like what happened to some users of Mumsnet who hadn't heard of the issue and ended up peaking after reading stuff there before it went to shit.

If you can, subtly insert GC thoughts on other forums you frequent. Like car forums, gardening forums, architecture forums - wherever you can get away with it. Especially parenting and political forums.

If you're American, please alert your fellow Americans that if the Biden/Democratic backed Equality Act passes, women will not be safe in any public accommodation (locker, nursing home, hospital rooms, domestic violence and rape shelters) and women's sports will be open for any man to compete.

This is INCREDIBLY urgent.

because if we just talk to ourselves on our own forums, we get nowhere.

True, running away will not fix the world!

Wherever we can, whenever we can, as long as we can! 👍

Hi there, my code to join has expired - got caught up in getting my kiddo ready for school since everything got changed to distance learning in our district, it’s a bit insane. Is there any way I could get another one?😕

[–]materialrealityplz 5 insightful - 1 fun5 insightful - 0 fun6 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

Haven't been able to join. Go there, see no way to get an invite. Ask here, see no way to get an invite. Was a member of GC for 4? years with lots of post karma. Could someone please advise? thx

[–]Veneficca 9 insightful - 1 fun9 insightful - 0 fun10 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

I asked here on one of the Ovarit threads and got an invite code sent to me.

[–]immersang 4 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 0 fun5 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

If you haven't already gotten an invite code in the meantime, please ping me. I can send you one.

Message /u/flapyourwings for a code.

Saidit is hosted by a pro-transgender host. Ovarit is run by women, for women, for women. I highly recommend it. Getting DDOSed, it could be a matter of time this place gets the boot too.

Okay well, what is the name of the hosting company used by Ovarit? The reason I ask, is that there was a front page discusson on saidit, and magnora7 was heavily in attendance. He said ALL the hosting companies had the same problem.

And the Op is claiming that ovarit has found a hosting company which is not pro trans. So tell us what company that might be. I'm sure magnora7 would switch in a heartbeat...

[–][deleted] 6 insightful - 1 fun6 insightful - 0 fun7 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

No. They shouldn’t. You want our enemies to start targeting that hosting company? The less we discuss about ovarits tech stack the better it will be.

[–]tuesday 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

ah gotcha. but that response suggests that the ovarit hosting company is not a defender of free speech. And frankly, that's what we need. I kinda assumed (okay i was stupid for this assumption) that whatever hosting company had been chosen, they WERE a defender of free speech.

I had found a website a while back, that had alternative options for people who were absolutely sick of the corporate privacy invasive "wokeness" found too often nowadays. They had alternative options for literally everything that could be done on the internet. Including, i think, hosting companies. Every google app etc had a better alternative. I picked what i needed from the very long list and then closed the page, so don't have it saved.

I had one access code, but when I signed up I didn't click the verify link in time. Is there any way I can apply to it again, or what should I do?

(the invite link expired after 12 hours. I didn't think to check my email in time. Could it be resent to the same email?)
