So it's okay to say that slavery is a good thing? How about saying that gays shouldn't have the right to sleep with each other?
Those things wouldn't be tolerated here on Indymedia, nor should they be.
I find it amazing (and utterly sad) that people here are so quick to defend those who would like to see women be oppressed (and yes, that's what it is when women don't have the right to control their own bodies).
I'm sorry, but this is not an abstract debate about free speech. It is about letting someone who wants to restrict the rights of women to control their own bodies to spew their rubbish on Indymedia.
I wouldn't want someone who's racist or homophobic posting here--why is it okay for someone who's advocating the restriction of women's rights??? How low are our goal posts as the left that we can't even call this bullshit out for what it is and tell these people to fuck off?
