"There continues to be near total silence of western feminists about these barbaric practices. Feminists’ failure to advocate for the rights of these women is so shameful as to completely undermine their judgment and discredit their movement."

Wtf is wrong with these men? Why can they never seem to make the connection in their animal brains that they need to step up rather than blame us for them not listening?

The entire might of the US army failed to fix this how are we supposed to do so?

And the British. And the Russians.

Boghossian's just another chin stroker.

If these men, instead of grandstanding in such a self congratulatory way, actually supported the women who are trying to call it out, we'd have more chance of achieving something.

Sorry meant to quote you @Shortshriftandlethal

I'm imagining that he is referring to the branch of 'feminism' that believe that men can be women too....but who are completely silent on the sufferings of actual women throughout the world.

He is, and on this he has a point. But it's as if we don't exist. What the fuck does he expect? He's just playing to his gallery of right leaning misogynists.

And that's how invisible feminists are to a misogynist, they can't even hear us!

Fuck off Peter you're embarrassing yourself.

Quite.

He's good on free speech and related stuff, but he's always been a bit of a knob, like James Lindsay.

women do speak up but these are not the voices these regimes listen to, that is one of the reasons men need to speak up about this issue, plus (and part of it) women are not allowed in the same government rooms as the men in these regimes so they cannot be heard even when speaking up...what a knobhead!

But also: imagine witnessing male violence against women and then blaming women for not condemning it rather than men for committing it. It’s rather like white people looking at apartheid South Africa and reprimanding black people in the US and Europe for not doing enough to stop it.

I don't know which feminists he's referring to but every single one that I follow on social media has publicly condemned what I assume is the Afghanistan Taliban regime that he is referring to by showing this video. Specifically recently in the light of the appalling ban on women speaking.

In the U.S 'feminists' are are all about Abortion rights and Gender ideology - not about the fate of women in Islamism or other such political cultures.
