        Hate that when I find great people pushing back against the extremes of modern feminism they're extreme on the other side.

        Not sure who that is. I tend to avoid ppl who get competitive in the oppression stakes & deny others issues.

        Too easy to form tribes and be reductionist.

        Don't get me started on reductionism. My biggest pet peeve ever. It's not that hard to be thoughtful.

        I will! Sorry you asked me something earlier abt Jews in the Middle East? I lost it. Fraid I don't know much at all abt that.

        You need to do a PhD on the Jews of the Middle East. Specifically Aden and Yemen

        Oh, do I? I tend to stick to England & for my period, Jews just weren't there. Not openly anyway. Just lots of myths abt them.

        That's cos the English expelled the Jew for the best part of the Medieval period!!!! #CheckYourPrivilege

        Yes, obv. Hence my knowledge of antisemitic myths but lack of knowledge of actual Jews in that period.

        you could address it by focusing on the impact the term has, rather than focusing on the proscriptive "don't do it", I suppose.

        I was thinking that but this is what they do too. Tho I won't be saying it makes ppl feel unsafe & is a microaggression.

        I don't think we should be deterred from making ANY critique of language... we just need to be careful to do it well 😉
