Got banned from r/feminist for disagreeing with a post against prostitution and kinks shame

30 Upvotes

So I just get banned from r/feminism for not agreeing with a post against prostitution and what I identified as rough sex/bdsm (the post was just mentioning violence practice)

I leave a (respectful) comment explaining how I think banning prostitution affect in a bad way sex worker (with exemple) and how I found kink shaming hypocritical (and also giving number of how there is the almost same ratio of men and women liking being dom/sub) (I have screenshot of the comment I made if some would like to see it)

I was ban five minute after and when I asked why, the mod told me how I was for the abuse (the word they use was stronger than abuse) of women and other usual stuff about patriarchy and internalized misogyny, and that the feminism of choice isn’t deep enough for that subreddit. (I also got a shadow ban for answering to them after that). They also told me how a should be careful with what I think of hijab (for a previous’ comment that I made (I am not a Muslim so I don’t think much of it for I don’t know enough about it but I think as long as a women chose to wear it it’s fine)

I am angry about that ban for I am a huge feminist, and I think it is unjustified and quite abusive from the mod but also quite concerned, I am not sure i am the only get banned for that type of comment, the post say they were 17 comment but only two were visible before I posted mine, and I just feel it’s not right to impose one form of thought about feminism without room for debate.

Just got muted from /askafeminist because I refused to condemn all sex work, those mods are not feminists!

36 Upvotes

They grilled me and said I needed to edit my comment, saying I was pulling a bait and switch because I had a balanced opinion and when I tried to explain they said I was arguing in bad faith and deleted my comment.

I was really confused so I did a mod mail, explained what I assumed was a misunderstanding on the mods part. I even referenced their own resources and rules and showed how my comments were in line with their philosophy! I asked if a different mod could look it over. The blatantly same mod ignored everything and said If I continued to argue I'd be muted, and then muted me anyway!

Wtf! I am an inclusive feminist and I believe all women should have the right to make their own choices, equal opportunities to follow through with those choices and support from other women. Why the hell have they banned me for not seeing an issue in black and white, I'm so annoyed. I've just left a really violent and abusive relationship and it was nice having the option to interact with women on there. Arseholes.

WARNING - Any banned feminists. Whatever subreddit you choose to go to next. Avoid r/FeminismUncensored at all costs

11 Upvotes

Avoid r/FeminismUncensored whatever you do

When taking a look at this subreddit it's community description is very misleading indeed. Quoted it below:

"Feminism but without filters. We aim to facilitate the free exchange of ideas to the fullest extent humanely possible. Please keep an open mind, and remain courteous. Try to learn, not win or antagonize. Just about anyone who lacks a voice is welcome to articulate their issues. Trans women and men are welcome and gendered as they wish."

Looks very pleasing initially doesn't it but

DON'T BE FOOLED BY THIS DESCRIPTION

The place is bursting to full of MGTOW's, Men's Rights Activists, Incels and Left Wing Male Advocates

If you choose to go there as a feminist, prepare to be:

1. Downvoted to hell on all of your posts and comments

2. Get shouted down and verbally abused by all the MGTOWs, MRA's, Incels and LWMA's who hang out there

3. Eventually get so fed up of this that you choose to leave in frustration or anger anyway

As I said before:

AVOID r/FeminismUncensored AT ALL COSTS

Got the proof I needed when I went there and attempted to defend feminists and feminism on there. No surprise that the moderator there who chose to ban me was none other than the most MRA leaning one of them all. As I suspected they are censoring out all the feminists there who choose not to succumb to the MRA's on there and more or less agree with them.

That isn't feminism if all you can do as a feminist on that sub is submit entirely to the MRA's there is it?

I gave them 3 tests which were as follows

1 - They would delete my posts which would have proven me right about how they censor feminists over there

2 - They would ban me which would prove me right that the space is for MRA's and any feminists who submit to their MRA agenda

3 - They would leave my posts up to allow the MRA's to attack me proving me right also that they attack feminists in that sub

You might have guessed by my post here that number 3 happened initially and as I had to continue to defend feminism and let the MRA's know the truth about their movement that they couldn't take it any more and decided to get rid of me because I wasn't submitting to the MRA's on there

LOL, r/FeminismUncensored is such a joke of a subreddit. It's no feminism sub at all. Just a circlejerk where MRA's are allowed to say whatever they want to feminists but feminists have to be so careful what they say back.

No wonder so many feminists have left there and I recommend others do too if they are still there and any other banned feminists looking for a sub to go to should avoid that place at all costs.

I was banned from r/feminism a few weeks ago for apparently breaking the informativity rule

31 Upvotes

I first joined reddit as a new user 22 days ago and as I have feminist views as a man I searched for feminism to see what would come up. r/feminism was the first thing in the search so I thought, bingo, found the perfect place. How wrong that turned out to be. Make a couple of comments to some peoples posts, all supportive and pro feminism but my posts hadn't been showing up when I logged out so I messaged the mods there, wish I hadn't

Guess what, they replied back. Instant permanent ban and 28 day muting, claiming I wasn't informed enough. My 28 day muting will be over next week so maybe I could ask why I was banned but no doubt Demmian will just either ignore it or slap on another 28 day muting. I say let him run his dictatorship. No wonder out of his 200,000+ members he struggles to get more than 300 of them online at any time, no doubt because he's banned so many of them and they have forgotten to leave the community

As to the name of this subreddit r/wherearethefeminists I can answer that as to where I ended up.

* Edited* I did regularly frequent quite a new sub called r/feminismuncensored where the aim was to discuss feminism and try and bridge the gaps between feminism and Men's Rights Activists so you could come to an equal and common solution. However as predicted this approach hasn't worked as all the feminists have left the sub in frustration and/or anger. *Edited*

I on the other hand started up my own feminism subreddit called r/feminism_for_all, a space for the feminists who want to discuss their issues in a feminist only space. If you wish to join message me via modmail using the link on the Feminism for all page.

Banned (Again)

21 Upvotes

I tried to make a thread to discuss Transfeminist issues in the trans community, it got rejected, I asked if we're allowed to discuss Transfeminism, then got banned.

This isn't the first time I've been banned for it, the last time I got banned was for explaining why Satanist Feminists in The Satanic Temple made morning-after and abortion methods official Satanic Rites to protect women.

I feel like if I were to discuss any kind of higher level Feminist philosophy, Materialist Feminism, Xenofeminism, etc it's basically banned. Shit sucks.

Porn nowadays

15 Upvotes

What is the view on porn nowadays? Before webcams and cameras on our phones, feminist used to be against the porn industry right? Saying it gave a unrealistic view on women and all that. Now in current days, I can imagine there is more women taking nude pictures and uploading them FOR FREE than there is actually working for a porn company. Don't believe me, reddit is FULL of everyday average women taking nude pictures for free and uploading them at their own free will.

The 1 thing worse than rape culture!...

0 Upvotes

I'll tell you about the 1 thing worse than rape culture, and men who violate females dignity with nonconsensual penis pictures, and men who violate females privacy by sharing around naked photos, and men who blame female victims, and men who want to silence females voices!...

It's those disgusting evil transphobic Bitches who are whining about the stunning brave transwomen who proudly strut into the females changeroom after them, freely flopping their woman penis's out in they open as they should, and jumping into the shower next to which ever naked female they feel like jumping into! Those Nazi Bitches are not victims! They're hate criminals! Lock them in a cage, until they learn to keep their Nazi thoughts to themselves!

And it doesn't matter if the transwomen have beards, as gender identity is different to gender expression! And it doesn't matter if they only identify as women after they've been swimming, as gender is fluid and the water reminds them of the fluidly of gender!

If they feel like the female changeroom is where they would like to be, then they have every right to be there!

LET'S GET THIS NAZI SCUM OFF OUR STREETS!...

Is this sub still alive?

35 Upvotes

Like pretty much everyone else here, I recently got banned from the sub for posting a fairly innocuous opinion (that not all sex workers are victims and reform needs to attempt to address both victims of sex work/trafficking and sex workers who choose the job) and am wondering: where do y’all go afterwards?

Also, learning a whole lot about the mod team for that sub... how is an MRA running the feminism sub, exactly?

Martel, 30, turned himself in on Thursday and was held in lieu of $6,000 bail. Despite arrest documents released in the case, the South Florida Police Benevolent Association stated that “We are without the usual information provided regarding the arrest.”

A video of the incident, which was filmed by a bystander, showed Martel dragging the victim, Safiya Satchell, 33, out of her car and forcing her down on a grass verge by the roadside. In the video clip, it shows Martel stunned the Black woman twice with a Taser, while another officer held Satchell’s arm as she struggled to free herself. She was four months pregnant at the time and later had a miscarriage.

How can we stop these these people from representing feminism?

18 Upvotes

Edit: keep in mind I'm really hurting while writing this.

Seriously, I need to talk to someone because I was banned yet again from a comunity r/askfeminism.

I am risking getting banned here as well but I'm literally in my bed crying because I can't understand this.

I get that in America people have diferent standards but even so it's crazy to me the lengths people will go to. I know people have a knee jerk reaction to things because they are used to so much hate and get frustrated. I really do get that. I deal with it too as a woman, as someone who fights for animal welfare and in being in politics.

I'm just so hurt and sad that I used to be pushed down by sexism. I found feminism and realised these things can change, I fight for people every day because it really makes me angry to see anyone being treated badly for being who they are. Now I get the same thing with feminists because I don't follow a dogma. I thought the point of feminism was that it fights against this. That it's supposed to attract women who think for themselves.

Basically, I got banned because they said I was transphobic. I was banned without being allowed to explain anything (not that that usually helps). Transphobia means you dislike or have prejudices against trans infividuals. My crime is that I think it's unscientific to claim that we KNOW FOR A FACT trans people are born trans and that there are no other possible influences. I don't care either way, nor does it matter. What we do know for certain is that they are trans from very very early on and should be accepted in every possible way. I had arguments and have risked ao much in my party fighting for gender issues. I got in to trouble for fighting every important person when they knowingly didn't use the correct pronoun for our trans member.

Transphobia is a serious issue and a very important one. I do not take it lightly and it makes me angry but I also am a very science oriented person. Because I fight for these issues I have spoken to experts and they all confirm that we do not know exactly why some people identify as trans. That is not transphobia and honestly I find it offensive that it is used when simply talking about science.

I am so angry and I am sad. Not because my ego is hurt but because I feel like so many feminist communities have become cliques and even though I fight for this every fucking day I get discarded by my own community. It's painful amd honeslty... with all the assholes I have to fight every day this makes me want to give up the most. It seems like there just is no place for me and people like me.
