Left-wing gender-critical feminists may not have carried out the violence against KJK and her supporters in Auckland, but they did contribute to her being called a Nazi by repeating the sort of guilt-by-association smears that were used to make her a target for attack. It’s especially disappointing to see this from women who’ve experienced TRA violence themselves.
The struggle against gender ideology calls for a strategic alliance between all gender-critical people, and a setting aside by the gender-critical left of closed-minded notions of ideological purity.
Meanwhile, Kellie-Jay Keen is out there fighting the war for our rights with heroic tenacity and courage.
Thanks for writing this. As for the commenter just below, she is wrong. KJK refused to distance herself from far right extremists, until she was forced to in order to get into NZ. Many of us have faced violent aggression from queer extremists, which is all the more reason not to hand them a dagger to sink into our backs, as KJ recklessly has done. Rush Limbaugh started the "feminazi" vilification, from the right, and now we see socalled "progressives" using "Nazi" as a club. They had already been doing this for some time before KJ ever got into this issue. Not only did she refuse to listen to women with more experience in fighting genderist overrreach, but she condemned them, even told them they would be "annihilated" for criticizing her approach. Her lack of strategic savvy has hurt us all. Listen to what Australian feminists have to say about the negative effects she has had on their ability to fight institutionalization of genderist dogma: https://feministleft.wordpress.com/2023/04/12/who-won-who-lost-the-fallout-from-kellie-jay-keens-tour-downunder/?fbclid=IwAR2Bl84-7Xyy56aLDS2_8q4BKv8c_DvJEy-YDOB03pMu7x66zhqiNHKrwAk
I can't believe what NZ has descended to, I went to the Melbourne event and although the most attended (by both sides) the police did a good job - except letting two completely unrelated groups to do march-pasts, one of them the guys with right arms unaffected by gravity. BTW I noticed one of them was actually female.
The trans rights movement is clearly led by the most vociferous and aggressive ones who are likely suffering from some major pathologies like NPD. If that is true they can't help themselves and will keep doing more extreme things till the public finally notices something stinks in Denmark.

Women’s liberation, we ain’t there yet, but it’s still worth fighting for!
