1. Not just for yourself, ismnotwasm... A very thoughtful discussion

I am not sure we've come any great distance since those forum-wide battles of previous years, though the recent public attention given to the most extreme (and violent, e.g., incel) form of misogyny surely should have shaken a few members who once denied the existence of such gender-based hatred.

How painful when the "me-too" movement and other activism has made some inroads to exposing and forcing a "re-calibration" of societal opinions on sexual misconduct, bias, and abuse of power, that the ugliest and deadliest form of opposition feels emboldened.

That Huffpo piece is spot on.


Glad you posted and glad you are still around, ismnotwasm.
