Never mind each person who voted to let that crap stand, they really should at the very least be looked at.

That post there was a misogynistic boatload of really scary shit.

Here's the link to if some need it:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=4531662

Here are the jury results as posted within that thread:

Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I have never seen such filth and vitriol in an alert. Obviously the alertist disagrees with this post. IMO the author of the post is sincere in what they say or the post would not be so lengthy. It is childish to alert on a post with the objective of hiding it just because you can't accept what is said. Same as holding your hands over your ears and holding your breath until your face turns blue. LEAVE IT
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: gee, where have I heard this story before??? oh yeah, some variant of it nearly every single time women try to discuss their lives. BORRRRRRRRING.
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Please hide this. It is pure misogyny.

Sorry, not buying it any longer. I've seen to much proof to prove otherwise.

I am not making any accusation to you, just making a statement.

Must be because of how bored I am with Gender Studies DU 101.

if you're interested. It's the beginning of a very long sub-thread that includes jury results and plenty of feedback. DU raked him over the coals, but good.

But after reading it thoroughly (just now).... wow. I'm still not really sure what MRA stands for or means, but I'm thinking thats it in a not so small nut shell.

It's astounding how much successful play that cover seems to get around here.
