      yeah the post was taken down, apparently

      i’m playing devil’s advocate and asking what is the difference between a community that is women-only and one that is white-only. aren’t both discrimination? and if people can just declare a community for themselves, can’t they both do so?

      i.e., where is the “law is blind” principle in this?

      Edit: JUST TO BE CLEAR, i’m not advocating for white-only communities or anything like it. i’d merely like to understand what arguments one might bring up to counter it?

        I think both women only communities and whites only communities are okay, so long as they’re not bothering anyone else what’s the stress? I wouldn’t go to a women only community because I’m not one and I wouldn’t go to a whites only community because it sounds fucking horrible. But if they’re not harming anyone I don’t see the problem

        Edit Ah yeah sorry you were doing the devil’s advocate thing anyway. I should go to bed! G’night
