      Of course. But that's the opposite of criticising specific issues which is what we were talking about.

      I am concerned abt dogmatism & tribalism with human rights/ social justice grps & 'with us or against us' mentality.

      I want us to be able to say 'This movement does this well but these ideas/behaviours are troubling.'

      And not feel that you have to belong to a movement. Or that not belonging to it makes you an opponent of its core aim.

      I make this point in my interview with @NiceMangos that comes out tomorrow. That's why I tend to piss everyone off. #NoTribes

      Sometimes you seem a bit uncharitable abt motivations of ppl who are critical of SocJus movements. 1/2

      Some do throw baby out with bathwater but others critical cos take social justice seriously & see counterproductivity. 2/2

      Your previous eg (FGM) was a good illustration of an aspect of the #SJW movement that deserves ridicule and fierce criticism.

      Yes, whenever liberals are inconsistent abt human rights, equality & freedom, this must be pointed out by fellow liberals.
