And that's what I don't even feel I can have a productive discussion with many radical feminists. Hell, even many "militant left" types such as a lot of the folks at Punkassblog. The conversation quickly degenerates into "oppression sweepstakes", with people who can claim the greatest oppression (or more often, people who claim to REPRESENT those with the greatest oppression) shouting down everybody else as a bunch of over-privileged narcissists. <BR/><BR/>I mean, if you want to testify about how X social institution has hurt you, you have every right to be heard and acknowledged. But to simply use that as a cudgel to shut other people up – that I'm not cool with.iacbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08267608319896053702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8385392963347857134.post-51441333285803298632007-07-17T20:56:00.000-05:002007-07-17T20:56:00.000-05:00Charlie is linking back here now; in a comment on...Charlie is linking back here now; in a comment on the Manchester post. <BR/><BR/>What exactly does "embarrassment among peers" mean?

And insofar as it, to some degree, it represents a real-life threat to one of our own, it needs to be acknowledged. Not capitulated to, but acknowledged.<BR/><BR/>I also hear you about the "two could play at this game" part. Not that I agree with stuff like exposing people's home addresses, etc – that's beyond the pale for me. But I wouldn't mind finding out who these people are IRL (Stormy, Witchy, and anybody else who is making threats), seeing if they're actually known in any activist communities, and exposing them as harassers and blackmailers on every UK indymedia and feminist board one can find. Basically, create some accountability for this shit.iacbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08267608319896053702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8385392963347857134.post-28832795485618482952007-07-17T19:01:00.000-05:002007-07-17T19:01:00.000-05:00I don't know about anyone else, but I'm done with ...I don't know about anyone else, but I'm done with this shit out of Stormy.
