I considered myself pretty attuned and aware, for a guy, but MeToo just opened my eyes. Every woman I know has been abused, molested, or assaulted. And my first reaction was 'I mean ... what are we counting?' and they describe their experience and I run screaming going 'that counts'.

One of the things to come from GamerGate was the gamification of torturing real, live women...hounding them out of their homes, making them look over their shoulders for years. It was treated as a joke, nbd, the work of a few bad apples--as all terrorism against women is--& that failure leads here.

I find the insistence that racist and anti-trans nurse Sandie Peggie was owed any support by the Royal College of Nursing fascinating. It’s an insistence that this cis white woman and her bigoted views take complete precedence over any of the RCN’s staff from minority groups. It’s so wrong.

Daily Express: Two nurses have accused the Royal College of Nursing of abandoning them when they needed help the most, claiming the union failed to support female members in disputes over single-sex spaces and pronoun usage.
Jennifer Melle and Bethany Hutchison appeared as witnesses in colleague Sandie Peggie's employment tribunal case in Dundee against the RCN, the world's largest nursing union. Mrs Peggie claims she was discriminated against because of her gender-critical beliefs after the union refused her legal support during an NHS disciplinary dispute.

Stop saying “not all men”. We’re sick of hearing it, we’re sick of how you don’t stand up to other men when sexist comments & jokes are made, we’re sick of men not stopping other men when they harass and bully women. It is all men.

Not all men. Jesus Christ, don't you think women *know* that? Use your heads instead of getting defensive. Most of you would be terrified of swimming among sharks, even though sharks are stastically far less dangerous to you than men are to women.

You can’t understand the story of rock music without following the main and side plots together. For example, I don’t even WANT to know about Frank Zappa and Captain Beefheart without the proper context of the accompanying episodes on the GTOs and The Banana Splits. That’s how good this is.
