It has become apparent that a lot of feminist viewpoints are bring censored, deleted, edited and banned for subjective and ill defined infrations like being perceived as 'goady' or 'barracking' or 'offensive', whilst simultaneously other, misogynistic viewpoints are allowed to stand.
Perhaps part of this is that most of us feminists also stand for freedom of speech and fair debate, so we rarely report or block others. I'd prefer to persuade others through a compelling argument than silence them. And of course that means we tolerate trolls and derails better than the other side do.
But this means our voices are getting heard less and less. They report us, but we don't report them.
Now that the moderation style seems to have changed here, should WE be reporting stuff we consider goady to us? I've never done this before.
It's getting very unbalanced in here. Only one position seems to get censored.
