Conservatives and that Australian feminazi group are basically terrorists, their actions do nothing but harm the lifestyle of absolutely everyone, achieve nothing if not toxic control over vulnerable people, and divert valuable and finite resources from real issues.

I'm gonna start by saying that I absolutely hate the people responsible for systems like this.
With that said, can we please not bring back Gamergate terminology? Call the Australian lady a TERF or an asshole or whatever, but seeing the word "feminazi" makes me feel like I'm on reddit back in 2016.
