Edit: The term feminazi was once used as a shorthand for “feminist nazi” for those that don’t know.

    But alas, the only people who used it were angry anti-feminists, so I think it’s never going to come back again.

    What makes you think that angry anti-feminists have gotten quieter over the years?

      It’s more like they evolved. Conservative opposition to feminism has become institutionally entrenched, so there’s not really a need for the ecological niche of “White Guy who Makes Cringe Reaction Videos to CRAAAAZY Feminists” anymore

      Nah, I don’t think they did. The thing is that nowadays anyone who claims to be an anti-feminist gets instantly clocked as a misogynistic incel, so they hide behind the “protecting women” idea now.
