    Here we are; a controversial take on something almost accurate. The context is there for the feminist - women only organisations as safe spaces for women to talk about the issues the patriarchy inflicts upon them.

    However, the implication goes beyond the context - “man bad, no want woman safe space” is heavily implied; it’s there but just deniable enough to ragebait, allowing a feminist talking point reply. An excellent trolling strategy, though possibly a self defeating one.

    The trouble is, this tactic tends to alienate rather than convert. As a historical example; Megalia’s use of this tactic created pushback from the very group it sought to defeat. Is this a measure of success, or is it an indication of self defeating anger? Tricky call.
