most likely they are completely honest, so there is only partial calling them out on their attack. And we get attacked when we were not attacking any democratic position on any issue, but simply that our issues are used against us by outsiders. It is tough. But better to plug along and call out the most blatant wedge issues - I think. Even that Harry Potter actress stood up in front of the UN to call out misandry. And I thought then...it could easily be bullshit and here someone is standing at the UN calling it out, as if hating men is in the hearts of women and a sudden plague around the world, which it is not. And I said...I gotta say something.

Did Mikki Kendall turn you down for a date or something? LeftyMom Oct 2014 #13

Relax. She's just one of the best examples of a fringe feminist. AverageJoe90 Oct 2014 #15

She isn't anything of the kind, and she's one person on twitter. A weird target for your obsession. LeftyMom Oct 2014 #16

Ok, you can stop now. AverageJoe90 Oct 2014 #18

No, I've read your posts and noticed a disturbing pattern. Do you obsess on her elsewhere? LeftyMom Oct 2014 #19

"Is the reason you're obsessed with her because she's a feminist of color?" What? AverageJoe90 Oct 2014 #21

You mention her frequently and out of proportion to her prominence. You omit other feminists LeftyMom Oct 2014 #23

You are literally the only one who has complained. AverageJoe90 Oct 2014 #25
