Why the hell are there so many feminists all of a sudden?

Feminists are realizing that the MRM is growing and Feminism is dying. They also realize that we blame feminism for a lot of the discrimination that men currently face. So they figure if they don't co-opt us soon we are going to eventually get enough power to change public sentiment and reverse the entitlements that they've created for women.

We scare them and so they hate us.

Be glad you have enemies, it means you stood up for something once in your life.

Identity in victimhood is very appealing. It tells the adherent that they are right no matter what and that anything they don't like is the fault of some vague, faceless, dehumanized "other". In doing so it discourages the rational thought that might help adherents see through their brainwashing. Feminism is hardly alone in doing this, but I don't want to ruffle any feathers so I'll stop here.

The hoi palois are starting to make louder grunts of agreement with out positions. It's a historical first, actually. And it makes the feminists antsy because it will ultimately affect their monopoly on power and financing for their self promotion.

If by "all of a sudden" you mean the last few months/weeks I'd say it has to do with school being out for the summer.

This has nine downvotes. That should tell you everything.

they come from organized brigades. Feminists camp this sub, then they get their buddies to come in and downvote anything that might be damaging to them. That way, they can attempt to mold the discussion without actually bothering to participate.

Then later, other feminists rush in to tell us how feminists aren't really our enemy, so we should totally stop saying that!

I was asking myself the other day, when did "privilege" turn into an internet meme which crops up everywhere beyond cesspits like SRS. Supposedly this has been going on since around 2008 but I've only noticed it since around mid 2012 at the earliest.

I haven't seen any recently.... maybe they are here because I've been lapse at running them off recently. And by "running them off" I mean talking to them critically.
