Is it a picnic table that thinks it's a sofa?

Hahaha. Well-played. Why would the community center email Reduxx? What do they think Reduxx is going to do about it? All they did was give Reduxx free publicity. This is awesome.

What's reduxx?

I'd describe it as a gender critical news site run by women. Started about a year and a half ago(?) during peak social media censorship times.

I actually remember first hearing about it mentioned on Reddit once or twice, described as some far-right Nazi site, lol. Also seem to recall encountering nasty hit pieces on some of the writers long before ever seeing the site or reading any articles.

This is how the MSM and social media work; they load you up with a ton of prejudices so that you don't even want to investigate the content yourself.

Is it a feminazi breeding ground like ovarit or an actual good site?

Scroll through their news articles. It's all about exposing gender bullshit and it seems there is enough of it to dedicate an entire news site to. They don't seem to be trying to alienate men who aren't pretending to be women.

Good!

They're idiots. I always find it tiring dealing with these people IRL. You get some low level manager type in a community center or whatever and they just don't seem to get the concept of trolling. If someone does shit for attention the last fucking thing you wanna do is give them more attention. Even If it is negative attention it will just encourage them to do more of it.

Of course having a "trans picnic table" is already stupid enough that you're probably going to have a lost cause trying to explain why they shouldn't feed the trolls.

I don't know, I'm getting a "thathappened" vibe off of this one. You'd think, if this were legit, that the center itself would take to Twitter to show off the transphobia and drum up a legion of TRAs foaming at the mouth to attack Reduxx.

I doubt it, legions of TRAs are already foaming at the mouth with hatred for Reduxx. @Slatzism spends half her time on Twitter researching and debunking shit so it doesn't add up for me.

I can easily believe some smooth brained Karen at a community centre thought she could get to the bottom of this by sending an angry email to Reduxx. These days posting to Twitter is likely just going to attract a GC pile-on anyway.

I don't know what community centre this is so I can't say they haven't done that. Not a smart move for TRAs to draw attention to a site like Reduxx, though.

Maybe that's intentional? I don't want to sound like one of these conspiracy theorists but maybe it's an undercover special ops style we can't openly share these links so we pretend to be outraged to get them out there thing? Reduxx's writing style is a bit too catty for me, but they do honest good work. I'm glad the site gets some exposure.

It's one of the only ways to get past the censors these days. Like if I want to say something totally offensive like "Hitler was the best!" most everyone will ban that. But if I do something retarded like write it in mayonnaise on my sandwich and post "Nazi Subway employee harassed me with mayonnaise" then I can post "Hitler was the best!" Without it getting censored.
