It kinda feels like a long term project of the standard conservative gas-lighting of liberals to me.

It is not feminism that they rip on, but the flaws and gaffes of a few prominent firebrand feminists.

<---Proud feminist. Dictionary.com:

Feminist:

1. advocating social, political, legal, and economic rights for women equal to those of men.

2.an advocate of such rights.

Screw that, I’m proud to wear the feminist label. The misappropriation of the term is nothing but a propaganda campaign utilized to change the narrative -think social justice warrior. How do you argue that someone who fights for equal protection and treatment for minorities and people of color is an awful human being? You divorce the label from its meaning, and redefine it in less flattering terms. It’s how you transform a superlative to a pejorative.

I was just thinking about this the other day. it pisses me off Too! I hate any kind of label, and they are all damaging. the human animals tendency is to highlight the most radical, extreme, unreasonable and hateful feminists, which always represent a tiny minority, and use them as the spokespeople for the entire movement. This is a psychological warfare tactic aimed to undermine the entire movement.. It happens with all labels.
