      Is it me or is there a generational divide between TERFs and those who find the views repellent? I don’t know anyone around my age/younger who espouses the former view. I’m honestly curious... @christapeterso, @_alice_evans ?

      I'm not sure if @MForstater opinions make her a TERF or not, but do millennials also think it's ok for people to lose their jobs for having them?

      Wait wut. You *do* know there's a massive, outstanding conversation in the philosophy/gender studies Twitter (re: Stock et al). I enjoy that this now can encompass an evolving, poisonous drama in your old (?) workplace that...I barely understand.

      No, I don't know Stock. I thought you might have read about Maya on here today. Question still stands: do (a majority of) millennials regard expressing those opinions as legit grounds for firing / not hiring?

      Nope. The question doesn't stand. I have no idea of the circumstances at CGD. But hey, you tagged the person in question & brought them into this. Your question isn't asked in good faith--cmon. Kathleen Stock's piece caused giant controversies online--& they're ongoing.

      I don't understand. I saw you talking about a generational divide on this topic and though I'd ask whether these attitudes also extend to what constitutes a fireable offense. (And are you also suggesting I was wrong to tag Maya?)

      "TERF" is thought terminating cliche, used to wall off ideas from analysis, through threat of ostracisation and violence -- to women. Perhaps you could restate the question without a slur @straightedge ?https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipOM9J_ZIrYtiMagVRr_jhagMR-XP59TBsJFLwNlcS13iIUT4ovqKRN9zttevr0PmA?key=NmJuV1AyRnVSU3dOS2VObVhLSm1uNUkxRjRBSk9R …

          I think if ppl are going to use the term TERF, then they must define what they mean by it. very few transphobes cld even conceptualise radical feminist ideology, even less be one. impossible to have’ good faith’ discussion when you mischaracterise your opponent from the get go.

          misogynous men like Nathan, have realised that the term TERF acts as a magical gateway for threatening & humiliating women while pretending to be progressive Note the ageism. TERF means unfuckable old feminist, it was ever thus.
