Even the most basic understanding of psychology would allow you to understand how incredibly stupid this is.

How can someone be an ally when they ban you and harass you for asking questions or bringing up other facts?

If you insult a person, typically they don’t want to help you. If you tell someone that their group or beliefs are bad then they will get defensive and defend the thing you are yelling at them about because you are attacking them. So yes idiot, you actually do have to be nice to your allies if you want to have any. Personally, I will support the things you hate just to spite you.

Wow. I'm already stupid but reading that about gave me autism.

All I'm going to say is, if you put a standard that you expect others to follow, you better keep to that standard yourself. Thus you should respect men regardless of whether they are your ally or not simply because all people are equal and disserving of dignity. But I guess that's too much to ask from feminists.

If you're not for equality of opportunity and freedom of speech for everyone, then I won't back you. If you believe that your group is being oppressed with no real evidence, I will not back you. Now I will fight to the death for your right to speak your mind, no matter how awful your thoughts may be. I do not have to support a supremacist movement, that allocates power for themselves, just because they share an immutable characteristic.

Feminism is usually taught with the oppressor/oppressed principle where power dynamics are attributed to anything heirarchal. (Hint: nearly everything exists in a heirarchy) Those lower in the heirarchy are oppressed by those above. Then feminists are taught that women are at the bottom of the heirarchy. With it's Marxist underpinnings it is evident and even encouraged that it is okay to hate your oppressor. Feminists are literally taught that it is okay to hate anybody who is not like them.

I absolutely agree with her.

I oppose sexism, therefore I oppose feminism. I'm against racism, therefore would be against "fuck white people".

I'm not opposed to racism because non-racists are "nice" to me. It's just an (obvious) coincidence that nice people are neither racist nor sexist.
