I hear you, and I don't think you're wrong. Ovarit is much more liberal than the previous Gender Critical subreddit, but I believe that's somewhat to be expected. New forums need time to grow and mature. I think the lack of downvoting poses a potential problem as well. Both Ovarit and Spinster have gender critical feminists, and I'd say both have content that... misses the mark. Rather than picking based on their current state, I'd focus on which you'd like to see succeed and work to shape the tone and content. The benefit of starting over is that each user plays a bigger role in what the site becomes.

I do agree with you on your main points. The only exception I take is to your seeing "lack of downvoting" as a problem, because I think of it as a plus in many ways, but certainly in terms of radical feminism and mature thought. And that only exists here on this site, and not at Ovarit, which does offer downvoting.
