(55,306 posts)19. The problem, however, is she cultivates hatred in a hotbed of anger and misogyny
at a place that has been used to generate threats of violence against women of this group. She does so knowing about the threats of violence. I can only conclude that mere threats are not enough to satisfy her, that she would like to see violence inflicted on one or more of us. The fact is, our being raped and killed won't improve her life. It won't make her more educated, enable her to earn more money, or make her boyfriend treat her any better. But it makes her popular among the far right extremists who populate that site and that, evidently, is more important than our safety or our lives.

I don't think she was the only one alerting. The Alert Message on your post does not sound like her.
