    Unless you think the point of feminism (for example) is to make men second class citizens. That’s just not a thing. It’s a rhetoric created by assholes to get ignorant people on board with their continued grossness.

    I think there may be some radicals who genuinely wish for that, but those don’t represent the entire movement and usually only pay lip service to the cause where it aligns with their personal beliefs. They should be ignored.

      Those aren’t radicals; those are reactionary trolls who falsely claim allegiance to the movement in order to discredit it.

      For a while it seemed like that minority owned the term “feminism”
