Ever since my naive young socialist days, I've been a strong believer in equality, so if someone created a New Left -- one that wasn't antisemitic, anti-white-men, anti-ex-Muslim, anti-Muslim-women, anti-free-speech, anti-science, and anti-sanity -- I'd join it in a heartbeat.

I wouldn't say the left is anti-women. It is extremely pro-women -- unless those women happen to be the wives or daughters of conservative Muslim men.

Then, as I suspected, your wording is off. New Left in your terms means not supporting conservative Muslim men. Not being anti-Muslim women

What I'm trying to say is that my New Left would be one that fought for the rights of Muslim women (i.e. women from Muslim families) as much as it does non-Muslim women, and treated Islamic misogynists with the same contempt as non-Muslim ones.
