MODERATORS
Why should we provoke though? What does it get us?
Defund means to cancel funds, not reduce. The outcome of eliminating funding is anarchy, which is a non-starter for the right.
"Trans women are women" yeah, I know, but they don't. They wont hear that and accept the claim by itself. It boils down to courtesy, which isn't implied. The right HATE being dictated to, so to simply tell them what to say is going to piss them off and drive them further away.
"Black lives matter" - unfortunately a lot of people who aren't conservative did not actually understand. My parents both vote for the progressive parties here in Australia, but because of the shit they've seen on Facebook, they parroted the phrase "All Lives Matter". That's how easy that phrase was to misunderstand.
It gets people talking about the issues.
It isn't about courtesy. It's about recognizing that trans women are women.
I also think that trying to convince the right is a waste of time. The majority already agrees with us. Instead of arguing with extremists, we should be organizing.
