Do feminists know what they are doing?

Grand-Juggernaut6937 · 2024-05-07T03:06:03+00:00

Something horrifying I’ve come to realize is that most women legitimately don’t think about the consequences of their actions. They just think the people they like on Tik tok are always right and react instinctively to every single situation

And on paper they seem so smart. So many women I work with are amazing scientists, engineers, etc. but have the critical thinking skills of a wall nut

FishRaposo1 · 2024-05-07T04:03:19+00:00

Feminists don't. The people pushing for feminism do though.

I mean we're seeing men and women already turn on feminist propaganda. We're seeing feminists get extremely hostile about it too. They are baiting hoping to get a response and when called out or out-right ignored they lose their minds.

Look at the whole man vs bear thing. Funny how plenty of folks took it as a real thing but only just now, when called out, they are back peddling about how it was a joke.

For a while the only qualifier for being a feminist is really just hate men. The natural consequence of that is people are starting to view it all as crazy. Sure some feminists and a few SJW's side with them but overall - people are starting to leave it and not want to be associated with it.

This is why when it comes to MRA stuff - we need to be very vocal on how we want to NOT represent us. Andrew Tate was one of those where 1/4 of what he said was legit and 3/4 was insane. Dr. Jordan Peterson started off similarly and is devolving into just a piece of shit.

At this rate they will loose everything they "fought" for.

Waiting with interest to see what countries which will start shrinking rapidly in the coming years will do. Looking at Japan, SK, Italy, Germany.

Some countries already started taking rights away. See abortion for example in US, Poland.

Also, some say that Talibans took back Afganistan so fast, because the army didn't want to fight for the women rights among others.

Common-Ferret-1435 · 2024-05-06T23:00:09+00:00

Oh yes. They absolutely know what they’re doing

Icy_Excuse_6672 · 2024-05-07T00:31:19+00:00

The toxic ones, yeah. You know the ones who say that men are useless and women are superior, etc, etc, etc.

Both_Change_3160 · 2024-05-07T01:31:11+00:00

Nope. Never have and probably never will.

Embarrassed-Tune9038 · 2024-05-07T14:01:04+00:00

Basically a prediction I made 22 years ago in college. Feminism will push and push like a child with pliant parents. And then the parents snap.

Women are in real danger of being worse off before Feminism when all is said and done.

This is basically the period of inflection when the curve reverses.

Modernhomesteader94 · 2024-05-07T01:17:38+00:00

Honestly I’m all for this men’s rights sub. The radicalized feminists, the ones weaponizing their cause and demonizing men need to be shut down.

That being said, we as men still need to be understanding about some of the stuff they are saying. There’s some validation to a percentage of it.

But we’ve also gotta stand up for ourselves while doing so. Cool calm and collected fellas! That is the key.

RProgrammerMan · 2024-05-07T05:35:36+00:00

In Genesis it says “You will desire to control your husband, but he will rule over you.” I think this is interesting because it implies this has always been a problem.

walterwallcarpet · 2024-05-07T06:28:11+00:00

They might be HOPING for a war. They recognised, long ago, that masculinity without a sexual outlet was a valuable military resource. https://mitpress.mit.edu/9780262582643/bare-branches/

All this 'green' economy, Inflation Reduction Act..? All 'green' policies are ultimately based on ecofeminism, the template being Mary Daly's Gyn/Ecology. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Daly

She took her ideas from Sally Miller Gearhart, who was pretty radical about how many men should be 'allowed' on the planet (spoiler: she said 10%) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sally_Miller_Gearhart

In the absence of oil, Greenpeace reckon that only 20% of the current population can be supported. https://www.greenpeace.org/international/story/15239/does-human-scale-matter/

Guess which sex have probably been earmarked for the adjustment bureau..? And, guess where the smart money, the Warren Smorgasbords of the world are investing? https://www.2xglobal.org/new-to-gender-lens-investing/why-invest-with-a-gender-lens

1.) they know but they're so privileged and delusional they think they're made of teflon and nothing will ever hurt them

2.) they genuinely didn't plan in advance and don't know that that every action will have a reaction or negative consequence.

No-Avocado-533 · 2024-05-07T02:20:50+00:00

This is a good one.

Like any utopian idea (communism), they will claim that we're not happy because we aren't being feminist enough or what have you, I doubt that they lack the self awareness to see how this whole thing will actually go wrong for them. This won't per-se start a war, but something will happen as a result of all this. It won't happen strictly to feminism either, general leftist craziness is what's causing this whole thing.

If I were to place bets on this whole thing it will fizzle out and policies will be made to address the birthrates that will give people tangible reasons to say "screw that" to feminism.

TheSoundOfAnarchy · 2024-05-07T01:01:31+00:00

No they do not.

They know how to rage bait everything with a living skin cell, that’s about it.

They just say things and nothing ever comes of it -

Rich-Dark5061 · 2024-05-07T00:45:03+00:00

Why would it start a war?

TheseMeat4233 · 2024-05-07T01:23:23+00:00

No there is no war starting. There is not a reason to start a war, yes we face injustice and so do women. But we both dont face that much injustice to start a war over it.

And for the feminist, I think there are two major groups, one dont really care about men and only try to get benefits for women and the other think they are doing the right thing reach equality. They never really heard of the problems men face today.

volleyballbeach · 2024-05-07T02:00:55+00:00

What would this war be against?

Ambitious-Reach-1186 · 2024-05-07T09:55:47+00:00

They truly don't know what they're doing. They tore down men as much as they could pre covid, and never once figured that things could get much worse for them (men turning their backs on them for good)

Because now they're complaining of exactly that

Frird2008 · 2024-05-07T10:22:24+00:00

The sad reality is, the vast majority of them don't, or are afraid of how the consequences of choosing otherwise would impact them.

throwawayoldaolcd · 2024-05-07T10:42:32+00:00

The breakdown of women’s march shows they don’t

local_meme_dealer45 · 2024-05-07T12:07:16+00:00

I don't believe this was any sort of organised plan from feminists. Rather the way you got respect and therefore influence inside 3rd wave feminism was how much you hated men in general.

So with the most misandristic in control its not really surprising the goals and programs they set up over the past 20 years or so complex fucked over men and boys. And now we're seeing the results of that.

salinestill · 2024-05-07T12:52:47+00:00

Lol you aint gonna start shit.

KinkmasterKaine · 2024-05-07T13:03:12+00:00

Yeah, most have absolutely no clue what they contribute to sometimes.

lIIllIIIll · 2024-05-07T13:05:13+00:00

I can answer easily

They have no idea what they're doing. They can't see past the tip of their nose and without men they'd die.

StopTheCap922 · 2024-05-07T23:09:47+00:00

The thing is feminism was never about giving all the powers to females, it’s about equality. The females just wanted to be treated equally, like closing the pay gap. We never wanted to take your rights away, just make everything equal lol.

Due_Habit_1984 · 2024-05-07T05:29:51+00:00

There are plenty of men who are in on this "war of the sexes", too. It's not exclusive to the extreme feminists. There are extreme menists (that's a word I just made-up as a feminist equivalent lol), too. People like Andrew Tate are leading the charge of the "red-pilled" misogynistic agenda.

Both "sides" of this "war" need to STOP because they are doing so, so much harm.

Not "all" men are scum, not "all" women are b----es. Yes, some are, but not all. These extremists need to stop judging billions of people and half the population of the world based on the actions of the few . The many (majority) of people of both sexes are perfectly sensible, normal, respectful people who don't hate "the other side" and want peace, etc.

Blenkeirde · 2024-05-06T23:56:17+00:00

Killing someone for wanting equality is generally considered a dick move.
