  The problem is in your first remake of the quote.

  I don’t like being associated with anti-racism…

  I support antisexism. You just equated feminism and antisexism, and the latter is a bigger category than the former.

  Nothing wrong with feminism as a fight for women’s rights, but looking at mens’ problems through the prism of feminism is the same as looking at racism against whites through the prism of BLM, or apples through bananas. That’s simply the wrong tool.

  There is feminism - about women. There is masculism (which is currently heavily discredited by patriarchal shitheads, but originally comes from the same place of equality as feminism) - about men. There are also nonbinaries fighting for their place in the world. And there is antisexism combining them all.

      It’s…in the name?

      But also sure, here’s the Cambridge Dictionary: dictionary.cambridge.org/us/…/anti-sexist

    If someone calls themselves a feminist, but they don’t acknowledge the struggles men face under patriarchy, they can hardly be called a feminist.

      Sure, but I don’t think telling them so is a productive avenue for conversation.

  Image Either you’re a feminist or you’re a misogynist, it’s simple.

    I support feminist ideas, but don’t find them fitting to look at mens’ problems.

    You randomly slap misogynist labels left and right because you got so rigid you cannot even start to comprehend any alternative view.

    Nothing wrong with feminism when it comes to women and their issues.

    I too think in absolutes. Either you’re a Christian or a devil worshipper.

    Either you’re with us, or you’re with the terrorists.

    Wow, life got much easier when I eliminated nuance.

  It’s a problem when it’s done to hijack a conversation about women.

  You’re talking about feminism in a thread started about men’s mental health.

  Dearest Kettle,

  I write to you on this auspicious occasion to bring into your awareness a matter which has consumed my attention as of late. It seems you bear a certain patina of the very darkest of colors, one might even go so far as to call you “black.”

  Eternally yours,

  Pot

      And the entire topic of feminism was brought up to hijack a conversation about men. Moron.
