      I found out recently that M K Fain, founder of Spinster and 4W and part of the tech team at Ovarit, has become a communications fellow at Women's Liberation Front. A member of WoLF now helps run gender crit social media sites that popped up after r/GenderCritical was shut down.pic.twitter.com/B4KwEmsFTF

      Screenshot from Women's Liberation Front website listing M.K. Fain as Communications Fellow. Transcript M.K. Fain is a feminist writer and engineer and founder of Spinster and 4W. She has worked with a variety of women's organizations such as YWCA and rape crisis centers in nearly a decade of feminist activism, with a focus on communications and technology. As the new WoLF communications fellow, M.K will be helping to get the word out about WoLF's work.
      Screenshot from M K Fain's personal website. Transcript: Ovarit.com Ovarit is a feminist alternative to Reddit. The site was created by the radical feminist community after Reddit banned multiple feminist subreddits, including r/GenderCritical. As part of the Ovarit Tech Team, M K helped launch the site, specifically focusing on building robust moderation tools. The site runs on open source software, Throat. End text.

Transcript: Spinster.xyz In 2019, M K co-founded Spinster with her partner Alex Gleason to help solve the problem of centralized social media silencing and censoring women. Spinster is now the largest feminist instance on the Fediverse and has spun off multiple sister sites. The site has been reported on in the Washington Post, the Atlantic, Reclaim the Net and Vox. Learn more about Spinster in this Feminist Current Podcast. M K has contributed to Soapbox FE, the front end Spinster runs on; Pleroma, Spinster's backend, and Pleroma's Admin FE, and created JointheFedi.com. End text.

      On her gender crit media site, 4W, she recently started a regular column/podcast offering advice for "gender critical teens and twenty-somethings". Said advice includes things like how to navigate pronoun circles and what to do if all your friends abandon you for being a TERF.pic.twitter.com/ArOxM7ALLb

      Screenshot of Identity Crisis column. Text reads Identity Crisis with Sasha White and M K Fain. Announcing: Identity Crisis, Advice for Gender Critical Teens and Twenty-Somethings
      M K Fain 11 Jan 2021 Today’s teenagers are pressured to agree with all aspects of gender identity ideology, or else risk major social backlash. While some teens take up the mantle with enthusiasm or go along uncritically, a growing number of young people are left with unanswered questions, and at a loss for how to begin to answer them. For trans-identified or detransitioned/detransitioning, lesbian, gay, or bisexual teens, navigating the new gender ideology within their community can be a minefield, fraught with potential social missteps. For any young adult who is critical of or questioning “gender identity”, stepping out of line with the liberal feminist mainstream can feel like a major risk. If you fall into one of these categories, you may feel alone and isolated with no one to turn to for support.
      Identity Crisis is a new weekly column and podcast for young people struggling with the modern orthodoxy of gender identity ideology—developed in collaboration between Plebity and 4W by women who have been there. Whether you have questions about your own understanding of gender and feminism, are looking to support a friend, or are struggling with fear of getting “cancelled”—Sasha White (Plebity) and M. K. Fain (4W) are teaming up to provide guidance on how to navigate these situations in a healthy and productive way. Sasha and M. K. are both women in their twenties who have experienced extreme pushback on their gender critical views. We were both fired from our unrelated jobs and #cancelled for our online critique of liberal concepts like “nonbinary” identities and “neo-pronouns.”. end text Photographs of M K Fain and Sasha White
      But, thanks to the backlash, we’ve also met many young people who reached out to us in search of connection and guidance. We have heard from teenagers and young adults who feel alone, isolated, and utterly lost amidst the pressure to agree with statements like “transwomen are women” in their schools, social groups, and even workplaces. Navigating these situations is hard, and yet so many young people today are faced with the same dilemmas. We have created this space to provide concrete advice, guidance, and support to teens and young adults based on our own experiences.

      Also conservative Catholics are apparently fans of the kind of "radical feminism" Fain promotes, naming "women like Fain as 'key allies' in the fight against transgenderism going forward."https://web.archive.org/web/20210216192903/https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/canceled-radical-feminists-and-the-catholic-church-unlikely-allies-believe-women-are-female-31843 …
