It may come as a shock to some people, but being a member of the Woke Cult is no more synonymous with “empathy” and “compassion” than being a loopy Evangelical Christian is synonymous with “good”. You’re the new religion. At least the Christians admit it.

I want it on record. I oppose any law that allows people to self-ID into a "gender" with no checks, especially children. These laws, whilst good in intent, are NOT a good idea. I'm on "the left", but I am also a feminist and I will not support this.

A really good way to check if you are in a cult, or other abusive relationship, is to ask yourself: "What happens if I disagree?" If the answer is blind rage, anger or "punishment" (either physical or psychological). You, my friend, have to get out. SJW is a cult.

Things that are now feminist, according to Twitter: men with fetishes, drag queens, men buying women's bodies, porn, stiletto heels, beauty products, chemical peels, 6 hour $1000 hairstyles, boob jobs, sexualised children, strap-ons. It seems I missed a couple of meetings.
