I've been in enough of these conversations to know replies like this are just trolling and/or white-noise. Why NOT separate yourselves into an "us" vs "them"?

Why NOT separate yourselves into an "us" vs "them"? Why should oppressed people try to "work together" with their oppressors?
If you're so interested the effectiveness of social movements, why haven't you looked at cases like Susan Fowler's to see how little it accomplishes to "work together", or within the system, "to find a solution"?
What rulebook, exactly, should people consult when organizing to stop awful shit from happening? Let us know so we can tell which methods are kosher with you. In the meantime maybe start holding the perpetrators to the same rigorous standard of moral behavior.
- iamatworknow 9y agoWe live in a society. If we don't work together to solve our issues then we'll languish and die apart.
- and0 9y agoThis is meandering, meaningless point. I have no idea what you actually mean here. How exactly do support groups for women in STEM tear at the fabric of society? How does it do so in such a way that actively excluding them doesn't (via harassment and other boundaries), and why aren't you equally critical of those people?
