Why is DU in a gender war anyway?

[Logical]

107. Someone alerted this 5-1 to allow it to stay.....

REASON FOR ALERT:

This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.

ALERTER'S COMMENTS:

Incredibly rude, insensitive and dismissive to claim that those who stand up and speak out against rape, equal rights and feminist here day in and day out in the face of the war on women in this country have some other "agenda". This constant attack on feminists and feminist issues is embarrassing for DU.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Wed Jan 1, 2014, 09:02 AM, and the Jury voted 1-5 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT and said: I had to think about this post long and hard. I changed my mind several times. in the end I found that the post IS dismissive of gender issues and gender inequality.
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: Maybe the dumbest alert I have seen this month. Wow, feel free to counter the poster with your own post. Quit using the alert system to silence things you disagree with.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: the poster mentions a "few" people who are forum bullies and tend to be successful derailing discussions here at DU, not everyone who posts meaningfully about gender issues.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: Not buying the alerters explanation for one second. LadyHawkAZ is expressing an opinion about people on DU playing games to stir up trouble for people they don't like. She has every right to have and express that opinion.

Using the alert system to go after people who express an opinion you don't like, and falsely claiming you're standing up for feminists by doing so, is what's embarrassing.
