Did you know that 74% of statistics are made up on the spot?
How many feminist podcasts do you consume, and when did you notice the change?

tias@discuss.tchncs.de 3 days agoUnder some older meaning of feminist sure, but 90% of the people who claim to be feminist these days think of it solely as giving women more privilege, and any discussion of men’s issues is considered anti-feminist. Whatever meaning of equality that there used to be is all but lost.

I’m not talking about feminists who actually know their stuff (such as most - but not all - who make podcasts on the subject). Those are niche subcultures. I’m talking about the self-proclaimed feminists on social media like TikTok, Instagram, or the comment sections on Reddit and Facebook. The people that the general public comes in contact with and who shape the meaning of our language. Your attempt at gatekeeping kind of underscores my point.

You’d get called a misogynist because you are a misogynist.

That comment was already made and most symbols mean multiple things. A German user and a Japanese user will have very different interpretations of a swastika. Whose Interpretation is correct, is depending on the situation. If you think the swastika on the tourist map in Japan stands for Nazism, you are wrong. If you think the swastika on a wall in Germany stands for good fortune, you are most probably wrong.

Lol, I am not. And a lot of people who call themselves feminists are sexist.
A German is not forced to use a symbol in an international setting in the same way, they might use it in the local setting.
Please don’t use insults.
