If the average American were asked what they imagine the priorities of the feminist movement are these days, most people would likely cite concerns like “fighting abortion bans” or “getting justice for sexual violence victims” or boring mainstays like “equal pay for equal work.” But if you listen in to the world of right-wing social media influencers, they have a different answer. To them, feminists are single-mindedly obsessed with destroying women who identify as “tradwives.”

      Remember boys and men: If you can’t get a girlfriend, much less a woman of your dreams, just become radicalized by a fringe extremist group on the internet.

      In fairness, all x wing (pun intended) fantasies are rotting young minds. My extremism is mind rot, whether you’re a guy, girl or whatever you want to be in between. Yes, be progressive, but please please also be pragmatic. There is a real world put there and the pushing of left wing agendas in the past decade has caused more hand than it’s done good. People are tired of the more nonsensical parts being pushed and now we have a trump in the Netherlands. Great job.

      Can we please focus on actual important rights? We fucking lost abortion in the US, thanks to trump who also had a lot of “fuck this PC police bullshit” votes, this coming from too many of my US friends and customers who voted for him back in the day even though he was bad for them, they just were done with the left wing crap…

      Please be practical, focus on real and actual issues that need to be resolved.

      Edit: I miss the times where people would read more than just the first 5 words…

        put? hand? wha?

        Transphobia, muh both sides (but reinforcing right wing talking points) while desperately imploring us to abandon “the left wing crap”. Who the fuck do you think you are kidding, you dumbass motherfucker.

        PC? You mean words and actions having consequences and previously marginalized groups having a voice in society? Why do those things upset you so much?

        Why do you think that building an egalitarian society where all voices are actualized is bad?
