      Katie Hopkins is a far right political commentator… highly doubt she considers herself a feminist.

      Which is why the original tweet didn’t say that. You should probably apologize to that other person for flying off the handle.

        They’re not trying to establish what’s correct, they’re crying foul at people correcting them because it causes confusion, which is their real goal.

      The fuck? It should be conservative and not feminist.

        It’s their post, I can’t change what they said. It’s unfortunate they’re making feminists look bad by being racist. I mostly think the self victimization is the funny part.

          Except the original post of that image is “conservative”, not “Feminist”. Someone literally did change it, specifically to make feminists look bad.

          It originally said “conservative”. The edit is extremely obvious.

          Lots of “normal” feminists do that, too. Specifically, the ones that think “men” must be torn down in order to elevate women.

          Anyone who thinks a group of people that aren’t actually in power (not all men actually benefit from patriarchy/machismo) need to be torn down is just contributing to the rat race fucked up world they’re whining about.

          It’s not “men” that need to be torn down. It’s the systems that don’t distribute power equitably. These days, it should be pretty damn obvious most men are also not in the “-archy” club.

This community exists as a sister community/copycat community to the r/fuckcars subreddit.

This community exists for the following reasons:

  • to raise awareness around the dangers, inefficiencies and injustice that can come from car dependence.
  • to allow a place to discuss and promote more healthy transport methods and ways of living.

You can find the Matrix chat room for this community here.

Rules

  1. Be nice to each other. Being aggressive or inflammatory towards other users will get you banned. Name calling or obvious trolling falls under that. Hate cars, hate the system, but not people. While some drivers definitely deserve some hate, most of them didn’t choose car-centric life out of free will.

  2. No bigotry or hate. Racism, transphobia, misogyny, ableism, homophobia, chauvinism, fat-shaming, body-shaming, stigmatization of people experiencing homeless or substance users, etc. are not tolerated. Don’t use slurs. You can laugh at someone’s fragile masculinity without associating it with their body. The correlation between car-culture and body weight is not an excuse for fat-shaming.

  3. Stay on-topic. Submissions should be on-topic to the externalities of car culture in urban development and communities globally. Posting about alternatives to cars and car culture is fine. Don’t post literal car fucking.

  4. No traffic violence. Do not post depictions of traffic violence. NSFW or NSFL posts are not allowed. Gawking at crashes is not allowed. Be respectful to people who are a victim of traffic violence or otherwise traumatized by it. News articles about crashes and statistics about traffic violence are allowed. Glorifying traffic violence will get you banned.

  5. No reposts. Before sharing, check if your post isn’t a repost. Reposts that add something new are fine. Reposts that are sharing content from somewhere else are fine too.

  6. No misinformation. Masks and vaccines save lives during a pandemic, climate change is real and anthropogenic - and denial of these and other established facts will get you banned. False or highly speculative titles will get your post deleted.

  7. No harassment. Posts that (may) cause harassment, dogpiling or brigading, intentionally or not, will be removed. Please do not post screenshots containing uncensored usernames. Actual harassment, dogpiling or brigading is a bannable offence.

Please report posts and comments that violate our rules.
