DiscussionDo you think the queer and trans movement will drive lesbians - particularly young lesbians - into the arms of radical feminists?

Political lesbianism is not a popular idea on the GC sub and Ovarit, nor is it endorsed by WoLF. Maybe these people aren't really considered radfems but they are by far the largest "radfem" groups. I'd even go so far as to say (in the U.S.) the only radfem group is WoLF. A lot of people take issue with them because they were given a platform by the Heritage foundation (a homophobic organization) but WoLF doesn't endorse any of that. Does anyone who posts a YouTube video endorse all the scummy shit that Google does?

Definition of an ideology:

A set of doctrines or beliefs that are shared by the members of a social group or that form the basis of a political, economic, or other system.

It sounds like you've been reading a lot of this blog: https://thedirtfromdirt.com/ Are you?

I always hear claims that the site is homophobic and racist but I lurk daily and I have not seen it. These people can never link me to a specific post that backs up their claims.

I've never seen that blog so, no, don't bother trying to put someone else's views on me to use as a strawman. As I think I've said my experience is largely from the UK, but, from international groups, I am aware of political lesbians from different countries.

Hmm just looked up political lesbianism in the U.K. and was not aware of Sheila Jeffreys. :/ Yeah that is definitely a problem.
