Cool. How? Suffragettes were a movement. Abolitionism was (is) a movement. Not everyone in those movements behaved as you might wish them to behave, yet they were still legitimate. If the MRM didn't exist (or continues to be marginalized), how would social change come about?

The suffragettes didn't get women the vote tho. They were only a small group. That happened because society as a whole began to recognise the need for this. Women got the vote because men supported it. Maybe they were influenced by suffragettes but I think it was more the war.

Are you making a historicist argument? It will inevitably get better if we do nothing about it? It will get better if we have another world war? What exactly are you trying to say here, other than bring up a meaningless distinction between suffragettes and universal suffrage?
-
Yes, I'm claiming that everything will get better if we both do nothing and have a world war. Let's get on it.

I appreciate the sarcasm, but those two options *literally* exhaust the ideas you replied with. There was no other information in it- aside from tone-policing the MRM, the only people who are trying to figure out how to solve those problems.

It’s a case of squeaky wheel gets the grease. The louder and more obnoxious you are seems to be beneficial in some parts of today’s (online) society.
