What language do you find acceptable for oppressed groups to describe their oppression? Words have meaning. Regardless of their misuse at times, eliminating our vocabulary to describe class dynamics isn't a solution.

Nearly everyone I know wound up on GC because they got called a TERF or a SWERF for being mildly critical about trans and sexpozzi dogma. They were all, "the fuck's a terf", and heard of this super hateful group. Started reading for context and found a super chill group of women who don't compromise their boundaries in the name of almighty inclusivity.

I think Reddit and other male dominated sites in general always underestimate how many women use the internet and how given the opportunity, women will generally think for themselves and form their own communities and ideologies.

This is a radfem community. How are you going to have conversations about women's struggle for liberation when the conversation is open to men? This is like operating a vegan subreddit but allowing it to include constant shitposting from omnis. This isn't a debate subreddit, it's a place for gender critical feminism. If it was made to be a community for anyone with varying opinions then it wouldn't be a gencrit fem space at all. Your logic is flawed.

How are you going to create a women-centered community for women with open access to men? If you allow an oppressed group and their oppressor group into the same space, it will come as no surprise when the oppressor group dominates the conversation.

How does, "We want to have private communities to discuss our grievances" translate to, "I'm not allowed in, so I don't have to care that women are treated like objects or worse?" Why do you think it so upsetting to so many people to have a women's only feminist community?

When communities are mixed sex, they become male dominated communities. Look what happened to TwoXChromosomes when it went default. For the moment, r/gendercriticalguys still exists. If you are concerned about that space going away, I would recommend starting a mirror for that sub.

Gail Dines is a great radfem who explains the toxicity of porn from a radfem perspective. Just because we can occasionally agree on certain topics doesn't make a gender critical feminist subreddit an appropriate place for right wingers. Literally in any other community I'd just agree with you and move on, but you're in a radfem space. Why can't you respect the subject of this forum?

The banning of r/gendercritical, why you should care and why the average person doesn't. by Barfie in GenderCritical

[–]homeless-g_c-mod 4 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 0 fun5 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

By that logic, any forum focused on a specific ideology of any kind is an echo chamber. A vegan subreddit, specifically to discuss veganism and the vegan lifestyle is an echo chamber that fails to reach outsiders. Should all forums then be open to any viewpoint? How can we have any nuanced discussion of a particular subject without limiting the broader viewpoints from the conversation? An open forum is a forum dominated by the median view.

The idea of a political forum is to create a place for internal discussion and debate within an ideology. Not every conversation needs to include every person.

GC wasn't a debate sub. You came into a subreddit for a specific ideology and you're complaining that they didn't welcome your unrelated viewpoint. This forum will also remove opposing opinions under rule 4.

We're struggling to rebuild a rare women-focused environment. Most of the women centered subreddits that don't welcome men were wiped out in the ban wave. GCG is STILL UP. Regardless of whether you said the words explicitly or not, I think it's valuable to consider why you would ask the women of GC to recreate GCG on this site. Being a male feminist ally means recognizing the burden of women's labor and working to share the load.

I'll always appreciate Magdalen Berns. While her actions are minor compared to a lot of inspiring women, she's accessible to me, in a way other amazing figures are not. She said exactly what she thought, unapologetically, and without censure. Her directness is inspiring because it feels like the bare minimum of what we all should be doing. She said what she thought was right and we need to evaluate why the rest of us are so incapable of doing the same.

Bro you commented all over the place. I'm going through my messages in order. Your responses and response history show you don't meet the criteria for our community. My final stance is that you're welcome to bring my decisions up to the powers that be, but you aren't a gender critical feminist, you don't believe in gender critical feminism and you don't belong in the space.

The topic of the subreddit is gender critical feminism. Your views are expressly stated as not being within the bounds of the original topic of the forum. I will not change my stance. If the powers that be want to remove me, they're welcome to do so. A post about eugenics and posts outside the bounds of gender critical feminism do not belong in a gender critical discussion. I have read the rules closely. I stand by my stance that you are not arguing in good faith and do not meet the criteria for being involved in this forum.

The other moderators of this site are trying to be very generous.

No. I say it again, No.

You reject my perspective on the far right, why don't you share some of your political opinions on things like education and healthcare and a living wage and race relations and the patriarchy? Libertarians consider themselves the far right. The "true" right. If you want to argue specifics, I'll waste my time as such. Why do you identify yourself as far right and how does that coincide with or oppose feminist ideals?

Our communities aren't a public housing block. Our communities are private spaces for discussing our ideology. If you align yourself with the far right, then by definition you are aligning yourself with an ideology which opposes radical leftwing ideologies such as radical feminism.

We. Are Not. Your. Allies.

You obviously didn't subscribe to the ideology. If someone was commenting in r/vegan and their post history showed "I just cooked this steak for dinner!" they would be removed.

We are demonized minorities because we argue on behalf of women's rights. The far right is demonized because it argues against things like healthcare and housing and free education and a living wage, etc etc. The far right and radical feminists are diametrically opposed on 99% of all relevant issues. No, we are not your allies.
