Hang on. When far-right groups eager for publicity/violence agitate near women's rallies, that makes all the women sticking up for their rights fascists. However, when Nazis join a protest YOU agree with, they're opportunists who mustn't be allowed to besmirch a righteous cause.
Neo-Nazis are showing up at pro-Palestine protests in an attempt to push anti-Jewish conspiracy theories and tropes into the mainstream. Here’s what you need to know about them. 🧵1/6

Watching AFL w/ my MIL who always wants the female commentator to "shut up,what would she know, God her voice is annoying" All the while she yells at the TV, comments about the game, with no sports journalism degree in sight. Internalised and plain old misogyny is exhausting.
I get messages like this at least a few times a week. The idea that footy is a men’s domain only is still so pervasive within society, and although yes trolls are stupid and dumb, it’s unbelievably exhausting.

I keep going into my @meccabeauty app to buy something but then the experience I had when my parcel was stolen truly leaves a sting that I abandon it. Mecca was my happy place and now it just makes me angry.
