Yea, I was really appalled by some of the political, tribalistic comments even displayed on that thread. Is such directed rhetoric not divisive? Does no one use qualifiers like "some, a percentage," or even "most" anymore? Passions are high with the possible, if not probable, pending loss of women's legal rights, protections, and spaces, but this smacks of redirected aggression to me. And, yeah, it's sexist. It's not subtle. Edit. Construction, bolding

I have to admit i honestly sometimes am getting fed up with some of the people on ovarit. Their opinions are just as black and white as some of the people they are fighting against and if you express more critical thinking you get argued with.

I don't like it. And if something is going to set back the GC activism its this nonsense.

Is there any single-issue organization about protecting women's sex-based rights when it comes to encroachment from TiMs? I would really like to formally join something and do some real-world work about this, but it's like everything has additional aspects I don't necessarily agree with.

I feel your pain. I would also like to just focus on one issue without the rest. So far im just picking and chosing things i can participate in and try to ignore the rest. It is frustrating.

Seriously, I wish we could all just focus on one thing and then we can go our separate ways.
