I read same on Ovarit. Ffs. If women don’t speak up now, their ability to speak up, ever, will disappear. What’s happened in Scotland, C-36 is drafted in Canada. Why do women remain with a party they don’t trust to speak with openly!!! What’s the point in trying to influence policy and platform by telepathy?

There’s always been people huddling in corners while others take the blows and mockery. People can only act if they are constitutionally capable of doing so. Perhaps, left leaning women in America have more a larger number of vocal (easily seen) huddlers among them than do the right, center, or independents.
That’s okay, I guess. They can be the ones being nice, cause I’m not capable of that. LOL

Having been the victim of male violence multiple times, I get why women are scared.

But yet Abigail Shrier, with whom I disagree on many other issues, is out there fearlessly exposing the Equality Act, and also what's being down to our children. She has children herself, and yet she's unbowed.

Let's gather our Ovaries, ladies. They can't hurt all of us. And again, I am NOT suggesting going out of your comfort zone, but there are ways to stay anonymous yet still speak out.

Biden is working at warp speed dismantling so many basic human & civil rights for women & children - if we don't speak up now, we might not be able to speak. Gilead awaits, and this time it's the F-ing Democrats herding us there.

And I'm not suggesting you don't take security precautions, including hiding your name, using untraceable email, TOR or a VPN, etc.

I'm just saying that most Americans, including Democratic politicians, are not waiting to boil you in oil because you have TERF views, most Americans share your TERF views, so you don't have to act like a Resistance member dropped behind enemy lines ALL THE TIME.

Be safe! But do try to speak out as much as you feel safe doing so. As has been mentioned in other threads, there are ways to hide your true identity but still speak up.

No one's afraid of DEMOCRATS. We're afraid of TIMs who post in forums with pictures of themselves with the gun(s) they own. We're afraid of baseball-bat-wielding TIMs who participate in Pride parades. We're afraid of young men making death threats. That's who women are afraid of in America.

(Roughly speaking - I am not remembering the exact details) the thread on Ovarit that I was referring to in the OP was about a woman whose relative had died who found a donation envelope (or something) for the Democrats in her deceased relative's belongings.

The Ovarit poster was thinking that maybe she should send the donations envelope back to the Democrats with some kind of note or indication to express her anger over the Democrats' betrayal of women.

I can't remember if she was scared of being doxxed by the Democrats, or if other Ovarit posters were scared the Democrats would doxx her, but my point was that the Democrats have better things to do than to doxx everyone who calls them or writes to them about the women-hating Equality Act and similar slimy gender identity legislation they are passing under the radar.

I completely agree regarding the vile TIMs and their threats to some extent, but at this point, I don't think the Democratic party is going to go after us, nor do I think that the TIMs will bother with Jane Average Gender Critical, given that tens of thousands of conservative Americans express the same negative views daily about gender identity polices.

Those with power in society always project their BS onto those without power, and when they realize they are dealing with the powerless unfairly they use both "active" and passive violence against those they keep down. The passive violence is meant to create outbursts or retaliations of actual violence which are often the only avenues of recourse because those with power make the laws and have the money and control all the institutions.

You'd think the so-called "left", antifa and their parent company trantifa, all the various self-proclaimed socialists and communists and anarchists would realize this. It's like any movement's 101 course.
