Courting the far right is wrong.... part two

Earlywalker I think you’ve displayed bigotry repeatedly. Bigotry, is the intolerance of other opinions. You’ve literally said people who think certain things shouldn’t have a voice, attempted to back-track by saying you would debate them ( but Posie is a bigot for engaging with them in any way ) and also called us bigots by association with Posie, as well as claiming we are not feminists and anti-woman. You’ve even said you’d leave several times, insulted the intelligence of women here and stated that’s why you’re leaving. Yet you’ve joined the second thread on this issue. To repeat, repeat, repeat.

Let's try once again for the hard of hearing:

Single issue political campaigns often make for uncomfortable bedfellows in which parties partaking need to temporarily suspend other hostilities.

Some supporters of those campaigns are willing to do this and others are not. There is no right or wrong overall choice - everyone must make up their own mind as how best their objective can be achieved.

This. Is. Very. Easy. To. Understand.

Pretending you do not understand means either you are a) very stupid or b) are enjoying the opportunity to splatter FWR with straw men, ad hominems and guilt by association.

Nightwitch, I like your post.

You’re welcome to talk back oxy you don’t have to sit around and wait for me to say something, please do share your thoughts with the class.

I was awaiting an apology really from your earlier post where you misread what was said and were very rude, that might be a nice way to start.

I really hope we aren’t going to have long arse thread with Early repeating the exact same thing over and over and over...

Glad to see MNHQ reinstated my post.

Do you think abortion and contraception is destructive to our society? Are you opposed to a woman’s choice of using contraception or having an abortion if she requires one? Or do you think that it’s your choice what she does? If it’s the latter, telling woman what they can and can’t do with their body’s is quite far at the top of ‘oppression of woman’, which is what feminism aims to deminish. Obviously just my opinion, I’m sure there’s plenty of feminist reasons for needing to prohibit any woman’s use of contraceptions and abortions, can’t think of any myself but there must be lots, right?

Nope it's the Duracell bunny I was thinking of. Still banging that drum.

Anyone remember the Ariston and on and on advert? I can't think why but it keeps springing to mind.

Imo bigoted people have found the feminists POV and jumped on it as an acceptable way to share their bigotry out in the open.
The Heritage Foundation were stigmatised and sidelined until a British mum showed up to help them out?
I don't think so.

Ask EarlyWalker, Nightwitch. She's the self-appointed arbiter of what's acceptable in feminism now

Bloody loving this thread! So much food for thought.
All this talk of "anti abortion '" for instance.
I've always been firmly pro choice for pragmatism reasons but that doesn't mean I'm pro abortion. In fact I've come to realise I'm actually anti reasons for abortion. I'm pro quality sex education. Pro free, accessible contraception. Anti rape. Anti abuse. Anti coercion. Anti poverty. Anti pay gap. Anti discrimination of child bearing age women in the work place. Anti stigmatising of single mothers and their children and pro male accountability for their offspring.
Can I be a feminist?

I’m against self ID, as I’ve said many times. My issue is with woman like the one being discussed, who is clearly anti - woman’s rights and choices, speaking about an issue that affects woman as if she is doing it in the name of woman.

Imo bigoted people have found the feminists POV and jumped on it as an acceptable way to share their bigotry out in the open.

That should not be acceptable.

And wafers...

Interesting EarlyWalker that post references taking away human rights and imo that's exactly what is happening here

I said I wouldn’t want an anti-woman protestors speaking in the name of feminism in the same way I wouldn’t want hitler delivering equality training.

But nobody speaks ‘in the name of feminism’ It isn’t a political party and there is no formal structure.

I do draw a line and would refuse to associate with some people because of their views, as I think do most people, but my line and your line can be different.

Nothing wrong with that post by JellySlice.

Makes me want jelly and ice cream now

That post doesn’t refer to anyone as Nazis. It’s a very good and well thought out post about another example in history when basic human rights were being infringed upon.

That looks lush. I am making rum and raisin as soon as it arrives, sproglet wants mint choc chip with nasty pepermint essence and green food colouring. In my head am already Heston Blumenthal. I'll be serving bacon and egg ice cream before I know it. Carbonara ice cream..

I said that you guys are the one that started the comparisons to nazis. This post here was the one I was talking about.

When I had a deletion, MN emailed me the reason. I don’t know what you said but yeah, stop calling or comparing people to Nazis etc despite what you think, there are Jewish GC women.

Talk about odd censorship

You really aren't keen about rules being applied to you
