    If gender is whatever an individual feels like, then this event was just thousands of women and non-binary folks,

    The event could be “thousands of women and non-binary folks”. Did all these male-presenting people identify as women or non-binary just to be able to attend this event?

    What do you think identity politics is, exactly? Just a way to make changes you don’t like to make you unhappy? It couldn’t possibly be about people trying to make social changes so they’re not constantly treated like shit. Oh no. The horror.

      According to their Chief Impact Officer, yes. Apparently they “lied about their gender identity when signing up.”

      Performative politics centred around identity. White is perfectly happy to pretend that men can be women - until it impacts him.
