Fair enough. I was just arguing against a "moderation" that is just fallacious "balance".

I think it wld be fallacious to compare ppl who ID as feminist with ppl who ID as KKK.

thats the point. Modern feminism is sexist garbage. But you think it acceptable that 7% are self-professed sexists.

You are being tribal. You have assumed I am OK with current feminism coz I see good in the reasonable left (& right)

No. I'm moderate left & recognise the value of moderate right as a counterbalance. It sees things we don't.

But yes, I do see moderation as superior to extremeness & I do want to ally to fight it. Not what I mean by tribal.
