You're still putting others at risk, that's someones family for gods sake. Stop being selfish and stay inside.

So, you're still a risk.

So still very much transmissible.

Meh; the situation was pointed out to people like you at the time. All the drawing of parallels with events in history, all the calls for reason and rationality and all the highlighting of holes in logic didn't do anything to stop the

And a reminder that the majority of HN supported them in doing that because we needed to "fight disinformation".

And in another hilarious twist, vast numbers of HN members (likely the majority) encouraged this situation to happen. Go back through any of the old threads at the height of the metoo campaign. The vast majority were on the side of the mob

Exactly, it's not societies duty to adapt to you, and some societies are more beholden to principles surrounding liberty; there are plenty of other more authoritarian societies available for those who want more restrictions. And the 10

Re-read the comment; saying things just aren't, don't make them so.

You have presented no hard facts or logic. As stated, the groups public behaviour is consistent and malicious enough to be common knowledge. If you can't follow that logic then how can you hope to have an opinion on what is or isn&#x

Stating reality I'm afraid to tell you isn't twisting to fit a narrative, but again, subscribers to an ideology who find "men are on average taller and stronger than women" to be a controversial statement will no doubt s

Can you point to me the bit where its criticising it for being too conservative? Not saying its not there but I'm not seeing it.

You can feel whatever you want about what it indicates, none opposed the worst aspects of their group, most supported them when pressed, most subscribe to a number of malicious beliefs and behaviours; you are welcome to show evidence where

A full on reading into one particular book is probably going above and beyond (though I cant immediately see anything about right wing co-option on a skim read of that particular one; the general criticism at the moment seems to centre on t

No but the groups behaviour however does; behaviour illustrated in just one example I have given. And I never claimed one example was what it took to make the situation, I stated the situation and gave an example when pressed for evidence.

Ask yourself if you or other people would be more comfortable identifying as feminists publicly now as opposed to 5/10 years ago; that'll give you answer 1. As for answer 2, I've shown what basic searches can come up with. &

Apologies I meant what those efforts entailed; what actually was done in the universities to achieve the numbers increase? As for the 2nd point, that's more of what I'm getting at; that core populist/mainstream progressive mo

Brushing away the example as "cherry picking" because no counter argument can be given isn't convincing, particularly when the pattern is seen in developed countries in general. As for your university efforts I'd have to

You're genuinely going to try and claim, on HN of all places that no one is advocating for enforced gender requirements in hiring?

If you would follow a couple steps up the comment chain you'll note that the discussion centred around progressive ideology; you're welcome to re-read the chain and respond again once you have familiarised yourself with the contex

Perhaps you don't, but for progressives it remains a core part of their ideology and one that can't be no-true-scotsman-ed away, now that the belief has become publicly embarrassing to have supported. And the same goes for your op

You believe in quotas, you believe in equality of outcome. In fact I could be inclined to agree with you in some ways; its more accurate to state that progressives don't believe in equality of outcome in much the same way as they don&#

It's a core belief of progressivism; those who claim it isn't know it is but are interested in protecting a movement that gives them a means of attacking those they dislike.

by textgel 5y ago
Considering the year on year decrease in women who identify with the movement, its fairly clear anyone who would describe said movement as "reasonable" would no doubt hold the traits inherent in the movement that so many find desp

Which when translated from the progressive "your truth" to reality comes out as video and written evidence.

That's a fair point; tbh I can't make any excuse for whatever they're trying to pull off with that; I've heard a lot of complaints about the UK govs approach to things; sounds like they're upsetting just about most

Which rights are they curtailing and how are they doing it?

Which hilariously is leading to the pushback. People were willing to live and let live when the psychos were confined to gender theory classes and unsuccessful bookshops but now that they are so prevalent and demanding that people indulge t
