I want to blow up at multiple people on that thread, but I won't. I also wish I was shocked that people shut down discussion of race (and that there wasn't much of a mention of class, at all). I don't think I've ever seen a famous white man accused of rape not having the media on his side.
Or any mention that the reason there may not be any criminal charges being that the DA's office refuses to bring them. Or the fact that neither a financial ruling or jail time is likely to stop him from raping again, because 99 out of 100 rapists rape a second time. There was a little bit of hinting from a couple people that the courts don't work for rape (which should be shortened "the courts don't work") but no one brought up anything about another way to handle this, and anything positive said was still just reformism toward the legal system.
I think I only read Feministe to get myself angry and remember how much of difference there is between my [anarchist/anti-civ] politics and progressive and liberal politics.
That said, I can't think of a good group blog that is anarchafeminist or even non-transphobic radical feminist, they're all either reformist, liberal feminist blogs like feministe, or super transphobic (and [even more] racist, classist, ablist [than feministe]) radfem blogs.
