The problem is all the blue haired land whales blaming all their problems. On mend a,qnd calling it feminism. ² The idea that feminism is actu. &ally a nuanced field of study / advocacy that aims to understand and dismantle harmful patriarchal norms and ideologies.
That doesn't sell well online. Add in the name of the game "feminism" and it's enemy " patriarchy" and it's pretty easy to see how anyone that's never engaged with actual feminism - regardless of their gender, can think it's just "grrrrls good boys bad".
While I do think the blue haired land whales and the gravy seal anti feminists would agree on what feminism is they're both probably going to be wrong. And I don't think this is a no true Scotsman type thing, and at the same time in a sense feminism "is" what the land whales and neck beard say it is, which is to say that the whole thing has gotten very muddied by polarized andsimplistiv viewpoints that have muddied the fact that feminism has a serious fucking pr problem.
Hey, my guy, there's a backspace key and an edit button. Just saying.
Maybe he wrote it on a typewriter?
I'm glad someone noticed my first stroke. I feel so seen.
