(53,142 posts)The point is the game you all are playing. This OP doesn't ask: who posted the SI thread? It is about the widespread misogyny. Naturally you don't give a shit what hundreds of members have said. You have made that perfectly clear. You all use her as cover for ongoing hostility against feminists. No one buys it. As the OP made very clear, the issue is far beyond the SI cover. It is how some members treat women who don't defer to them with absolute contempt and repeated disrespect. That disrespect now extends to the hundreds of members, men and women alike, who have said they are fed up with the crap. But why should that matter to you?
One confused poster is running around accusing people of "attacking Riff." The only people who have even mentioned her are those seeking to use her as cover for their own posting behavior. I responded to that point, and if it is raised again I will do the same.
