    Do, just to clarify, should she be able to choose what she campaigns on or should she campaign on all issues equally?

    She's free to choose but just saying it seems she avoids any cases that fall into the category of minority. Could be a coincidence. A long drawn out coincidence.

    Nah they think that if you dare comment on swxual harassment in Ireland then you’re committed to single
    Handedly stopping FGM in North Africa.

    If you think a bunch of anti-feminists having a circle jerk is civilised then sure......

    I'm absolutely anti-feminist as pertains to the Louise O Neill brand of feminism. Feminism should be about equality, LON and her ''cause'' is anything but.

    No, there's no hive mind. Just people calling out hypocrisy and bullsh*t.

    Yeah that's not real feminism. Feminism, in its original guise, strives for equality. This sh*t we see today strives for victimhood.

    Because, while there are different types of feminists (or feminist ideologies), if you don't like one then you're against them all. It's that convenient... all or nothing scenario. Makes it easier for them to dismiss other peoples opinions.

    If she doesn’t comment on FGM in Africa then what business does she have commenting on anything. Makes sense

    My impression is that she is looking to fight inequality with inequality as the result?

    I just wish whoever keeps changing the title would go away to be honest. If you really cared about her, you wouldn't do it.

    Mod: What are you, the fun police? Stop going on about it. The title's going to change whenever Louse wants it to change.

    Why exactly does the title keep changing though? Keep getting sick of the old one??
