@TulikaBose_ it's not a political thing, it's unfortunately the effect of so many people being too online and thirsty for clout and likes. you find this attitude on the far right as well. nuanced takes don't get attention but extreme positions do

[Kimmy @fieldsofbarley8]

@EPM106 a lot of them are just larping for aesthetic and clout. how can you claim to have empathy for those who are suffering yet type out a comment like that. it's honestly very disturbing. a human being literally died of sadness

[Kimmy @fieldsofbarley8]

@divergentfemme unfortunately your comment sums up most online activists perfectly

[Kimmy @fieldsofbarley8]

@_AC_Carpenter_ @raflesbenita @ZwanMahmod @karaokecomputer she was grieving the loss of her husband, do you think she was in any frame of mind to speak out against her country being attacked by the US? having principles without empathy to lend you nuance makes you an asshole.

[Kimmy @fieldsofbarley8]

@Nyct0phil3_x hmmm. if I'm honest, I and almost every woman I know (even the super normie, mostly offline ones) are scared of walking alone at night. i don't think that's neurotic at all in the world we live in. but i get what you're saying overall

[Kimmy @fieldsofbarley8]

@ESPergers how is it feminist to generalise ND women as having a perpetual victim mentality?

[Kimmy @fieldsofbarley8]

@ubiquitousnewt oh my god open the schools... ffs

[Kimmy @fieldsofbarley8]

i really need women on here to remember that feminism is a system of liberation and a movement that is (and should be) constantly evolving. more and more i'm seeing these mean girl attitudes where women overly attack different perspectives. it's not a religion or cult guys!

[QC @QiaochuYuan]

in general, social media discourse is dominated by insane, neurotic, unhappy, lonely people, like me. normal happy people do not need to post in the same way, and the algorithm does not amplify them. it is bad for society that this is how everybody gets their opinions now

[Kimmy @fieldsofbarley8]

@karaokecomputer you should have kept this one in drafts

[Kimmy @fieldsofbarley8]

@bishoujocreeper @starniite i get where you're coming from but generalising relationships with men like this is not really good for both genders. women who are looking to date healthy, good men need to suss out whether they can even be friends with a partner before dating them. otherwise what's the point?

[Kimmy @fieldsofbarley8]

@beanotarthur it's telling that they felt so attacked by what she said. a lot of online feminists are simply using the movement for clout and we need to start calling it out more often

[Kimmy @fieldsofbarley8]

@montypythong you're misrepresenting what she said but i don't think you're doing it on purpose. i think you have zero empathy and lack intuition. work on that. this conversation is over on my end.

[yana @Madame_Ennui]

A lot of you are actually just mean girls masquerading as feminists

[Kimmy @fieldsofbarley8]

@andiisreading @starniite no problem, you too. i only hope neurotypicals are following this convo bc it's one thing to warn ND women about dodgy men, but if they're not doing anything to actually include or protect these women IRL, then it's useless.

[Kimmy @fieldsofbarley8]

@andiisreading @starniite in that case, neurotypicals should really adjust their attitudes towards their ND peers then. because if ND women are shut out by their own gender (and there are plenty here who are saying this is their experience) this leaves them more vulnerable to men of ill intent

[Kimmy @fieldsofbarley8]

@ARCANGLE751 @thisisnefertiti you're generalising and relying on what you see/read online versus what actually happens IRL

[Kimmy @fieldsofbarley8]

@ARCANGLE751 @thisisnefertiti same gender relationships carry different weight, especially ones rooted in your first female (or even male) bond. this is not a controversial observation.

[Kimmy @fieldsofbarley8]

@Iixfriedchicken @starniite they do all the time. i simply mentioned male friends in my comment because OP mentioned them
