Ironically, this post is one I would never call loving.
Your comments about Islam -- quite insulting (racist?) in fact.
Your comments that ecofeminist writers want too much and are doing to little -- do
you know all these ecofeminist writers?
How dare you assume that I am wasting my time doing nothing when I read and inform
myself.
How dare you assume that I am wasting my time simply because I do not pray.
And why do you assume that there is only one way and it just so happens to be
yours?
And how offensive your suggestion that all many of us are doing is what you call
"whining"
Do you know me? No. Do you know what I do? No.
And why does it just so happen that your way is what you call "inside" but books
are "outside." Last time I checked we are all inside various systems of
oppression. Where is this "outside" you are talking about anyway?
And how easy it is to look somewhere else and point and say that is where the hate
is.
And what is this "target" or this "root" -- how easy to reduce problems to one
single cause (Hate for example) and to assume you are outside it somehow.
