“And please, understand, people can disagree with you without being hateful. Ya know?”

Do you lack basic reading comprehension skills Dablo? Or do you not consider being called a “feminist cunt” or having pictures of mutilated women sent to you and asked if you want that to become you next, or being doxxed, or getting death threats and wishes, or rape threats, or having your home broken into and stuff stolen, or your windows smashed “hateful”? Because that is what it is, and that IS what I am discussing here, so either you didn’t read the piece or you have a really warped idea of what “disagreeing” with someone looks like. Also Dablo — quick lesson: discussing sexist and racist treatment is not sexist or racist. That’s some bullshit people pull to try to stunt or distract necessary conversations about marginalization and oppression.
