Ovarit is just as guilty of random censorship as reddit. What happened?

The space being women-centered and women-prioritizing, u/Greykittymomma. It would do you good to read up on the site before, you know, complaining about it.

I'm not arguing for you to go/stay on Ovarit. Who gives a shit. I'm pointing out your complaints are nonsensical, to put it mildly, and on you for not understanding what you wanted to access/complain about lol

Those women, especially the founder, are putting a lot into it building an alternative that no woman-hating entity (corp or person) can delete at whim-- be it financial, energy, time, doxxing risk, etc. the least women like you can do is say "ok but not for me since I'm not rf" and move on, instead of bitching about their efforts for nonsensical reasons. Enough men and tras already want to tear them down.

You like reddit and saidit better? No problem! Oh wait, yeah, reddit deleted the entire gc network... And cross your fingers and toes saidit won't down the road... Head on to twox for your "everyone" needs then and try to ignore the testosterone.

We are on Saidit talking freely about places we like to discuss GC views. Some people dont like Ovarit. The name alone makes me want to steer clear. I am expressing my opinion.

I am speaking generally about being silenced as a woman. No, I don't want a space just for people who think like me. I want to talk to people on Reddit still because talking to people with differing views is interesting to me. I am just tired of being censored on every platform.

I wanted to like Ovarit but it seems very much the same, if you don't bend over and think what they think they delete your stuff instead of letting people with brain cells think for themselves.

Saidit isn't perfect but until I ran into you I have found it more open and accepting. You keep coming back to tell me I'm wrong about venting my frustrations here. Maybe you should get over it. I think it is funny you have to make me feel bad for "bitching" yeah I will bitch about it, thank you.

I frankly don't care to make you "feel bad", I only care to point out that the basis of your opinion is nonsensical ("i am not rf but I will go to an rf board, then complain they're being rf!!1!") in case others, especially younger girls who want to explore women-centered feminism boards, come across your comment and skip looking into Ovarit.

You be careful, though, this very saidit sub is also accused of being a transphobic gc echo chamber by genderists. Lol

I don't need to be careful nor do I need to agree with you. I just don't like pushy people.

I don't label myself beyond being a freedom loving woman but go ahead and keep sectioning everything off into little boxes. Radfem, libfem? I don't give two shits what you "believe".

I also don't really care what younger girls get from reading my post. If one comment persuades them they shouldn't be online perhaps. Maybe they should THINK for themselves. They can see a woman expressing frustration with being continually fucked with online. If they don't get that they are most likely a transwoman or apparently you.

the basis of your opinion is nonsensical

Are you trans?

your complaints are nonsensical

She was recently banned (forced) off of another discussion site for not having beliefs APPROVED of TM by the moderators.

Legal beliefs, that were censored for religious reasons.

She wants a wider range of ideas in her forums, and doesn't like administrators deciding by fiat who is ALLOWED to have an opinion on a website. THat's why most of us even came to saiddit.

If you're okay with silencing women at the BEHEST of faceless administrators, then you're no better than the tims that got us silenced over on reddit.

If anything, YOU're a TOTAL hypocrite, and shouldn't call yourself a feminist.

no woman-hating entity (corp or person) can delete at whim--

Limiting the "acceptible" opinions DOESNT prevent mtfs trying to get it shut down.

Enough men and tras already want to tear them down.

And tearing her down for having other opinions makes you just the same as the radical mtfs.

And cross your fingers and toes saidit won't down the road...

Saidit has already banned people for being lawful and offending the administrator, and we could take back reddit if we tried.

Head on to twox for your "everyone" needs then and try to ignore the testosterone.

Limiting discussion on its successors is no better.
