15 days agoRight, spewing bullshit and then framing resistance as confirmation of your ficticious points - classic playbook. Go and touch grass for once ;)

Of course the focus is on women and generally LGBTQ+ people, as they are oppressed groups.
In its wider sense though, especially with the focus on intersectionality, it is for a fairer and juster world for everyone as the systems of oppression affect us all in various capacities.
God damn, what a load of incel bullshit you’re spewing. You’re exactly the problem and the reason why women would rather spend time with a bear than another self-absorbed manlet.
Patriarchy affects everyone badly, not just women. But I won’t be wasting time, you can learn about everything if you just put in a little effort. You seem to be choosing egoistical ignorance.
Wrong. Feminism is anti-patriarchy, for everyone. Educate yourself, read a little.

I don’t live in your fash country and no, I absolutely despise the way your country is going in and pulling the rest of the world into hell :)
What I have is political activism in a leftist party where I am helping get new members and organizing various events teaching about democracy and its tools, amongst other things, as well as supporting other groups and bettering the local community.
What you have is fear and a desire to feel good about yourself whilst doing and achieving nothing. You’d rather fuck off than pull through on your mighty words - that’s also called cowardice.
So what do you propose? What are the logistics of it? How do you organize to take out enough systems to take over? What do you do afterwards?
Life isn’t some fantastical action story, it’s the incredibly complex reality we all live in where a single person cannot fathom all the variables therein. You are not trying to understand, you are not trying to be effective, you’re just circle jerking in your fantasy world. And as long as many people keep doing that, living in some kind of hyper-real abstraction of reality, the people actually smart enough to organize and get into power will be able to do whatever they want. You’re just another enabler.
That is simply not true. Violence is the last resort, and many movements were successful before that. Violence can be effective, but needs to be measured. You must get people on your side, and you won’t achieve that through murder.
Of course it’s more complicated, but in general, to effect lasting change, you need widespread support and a good narrative, just look at MAGA. They didn’t kill people to get into power, they were elected. Now that they are in power, they have legitimacy and can start disposing of the undesirables however they want, slowly turning up the heat.
You will rarely achieve love through hate.

Not with that attitude. Seems like MAGA succeeded in organizing sufficiently.
What are you gonna do? Kill all CEOs? And then? Kill all politicians? And then? Police? Military? Dissidents? Do you just keep killing? How do you handle the resulting societal trauma?
How exactly do you think any of that can achieve sustainable, progressive change?
I agree with the premise, it just doesn’t change anything. Change needs to be political, and as long as you keep the neoliberal fuckwits and fascists in power, there will always be enough parasites to fill the empty place.
Only with stupid ones.
Senseless killing is a superficial solution. Organization is the sustainable, but less glamurous one.

Easier said than done, and I’m in the process of doing it right now as well, but you gotta get used to breaking the constant cycle of “I gotta do it” and replace it with “I will do it now”.
Doesn’t work every time, doesn’t work every day, but every time is a large success that makes my day better and my head a nicer place.
That’s just not true. Tell me you’ve never been in a gym without telling me you’ve never been in a gym.

That’s the point where you start with the “Thank you! In case you missed it…”
Almost never fails to get an apology and a smug feeling of superiority. God, I hate those people. Luckily I don’t have to work with those brainless corpo drones too much.
That’s right. The brains of these super-efficient high performers and most valuable members of our society are so above everyone else, that they need babysitting and special care taken of their needs. It’s why they also deserve to get paid so much more than everyone else and not have any actual responsibility for their genius decisions!
Every day I feel so bad for these leaders and am inspired by the self-sacrifice they bring to make the world a better place.
You’re also generally not being insulted by randos for being a piece of shit.
Feminism is just a collective name for various ideologies with the aim of social justice for all genders/sexes. Within you will find many different movements with various qualities. In general, it’s about creating societal/governmental systems that afford the same quality of life and opportunities for everyone, regardless of gender, race or sexuality.
You could see it as a subcategory of egalitarianism, which in general has the goal of social justice.

In the end, of course not every movement is perfect, people are fallible after all. But that doesn’t only concern feminists even if they are one of the main targets of the manufactured right-wing culture war. And furthermore, some people going too far/not being nuanced enough/not going far enough is not a reason to disregard the movement and its wider aims in a fight for a better world for all.
