As has been discussed already here in this community, the key takeaway from the bear hypothetical is that it is an opportunity to truly listen to the lived experiences of women under patriarchal systems. I encourage “first response” to the bear discussion to head back to this post, as I am looking for discussion kind of after the fact. If this is your first exposure to the bear thing, head there, then pop back here after you have a good handle on the situation.
My question has two parts:
- Positive Steps: Let’s explore resources for folks to act on the things they have learned from this discussion.
- Creating a Safe Space: During the course of the debate, it’s likely that high emotions have led to lashing out and unkind words, perhaps even unintentionally directed towards men who may be survivors of SA themselves. Can we create a space here for listening and affirming one another about these potentially painful experiences?
You’ve created an echo chamber where you simply “❌ removed by moderator” every dissenting opinion.
Way to call yourselves understanding lmao. You just want to spread propaganda.
the comments which were removed were all personal attacks which directly violates the community rules.
it is absolutely possible to voice dissent without personal attacks.
You can always look at the modlog, I always do when I see a thread with multiple removals:

Most of the removed comments were people calling each other tankie/nazi/incel.
