Article by “HOPE not hate” on HuffPo: MRAs criticised for presenting themselves as “censored”, HuffPo removes comment with link to ICMI19 website

Sometimes our enemies make it so easy to expose their duplicity, it’s almost embarrassing. HuffPo is clearly as keen on censorship as another infamous left-wing fake news outlet, The Guardian.

Earlier this evening I posted a blog piece linking to a woeful article by a “researcher” (in truth, a fiction writer) from “HOPE not hate”, published shortly earlier by HuffPo – here. I posted comments on two occasions, which were duly published, to HuffPo’s credit (it hurt me to write that).

In one of them I provided a link to the ICMI19 website, but I got the URL slightly wrong, so it was a “broken link”, and someone let me know. So I posted a correction, it was published, but I later noted it had been removed. I posted the correction again, this time taking a screensave. I checked a minute later, to find the correction – and therefore the only link to the ICMI19 website – had already been removed. I checked again 25 minutes later, it hadn’t reappeared, so I took another screensave. Both screensaves are here.

From the HuffPo article:

In contrast, anti-feminist ‘Men’s Right’s Activists’ (MRA) like J4MB have the clearest path to growth. This is because they employ a framework (however misguidedly) of human rights activism. MRA’s efforts aim at mobilising those who not only do not see themselves as feminists but who believe feminism to be inherently harmful.

To this end, MRAs follow the current far-right trend of presenting themselves as martyrs for free speech; censored for merely trying to speak the ‘truth’ about ‘dangerous’ progressive ideas. [J4MB emphasis]
