I would be curious as to what you considered an extreme outlier at the Woman's March. Most like one that was pro-life as it was made known that those types of women were not welcome.
That is a false narrative. A pro-life group was removed from the sponsors, but there were many pro-life marchers and there were no issues with them.

Doesn't fit the narrative, though. And truthfully, I don't like that they removed them from the sponsorship and have yet to hear a good reason why other than they had other sponsors threaten to pull out. Which may or may not be true, but that was a rumor.

We can trade links all night long and I'll bet you run out of them long before I do. You can say that making it known that folks that supported Pro Life were unwelcomed at the march to be a "false narrative" and I will say it is spot on. Guess we'll have to let folks to draw their own conclusion. Hopefully they can do so without bias.
Pro-life group sharing a positive experience being welcomed marching in an event your article claims they weren't welcome at. Just an interesting paradox.
