Yeah like i said you don't really know what you're talking about when you refer to things like "decolonial feminism"

that's pretty much it. you don't know much about what you're talking about

Lmao you're the one who wrote out a bunch of emotional bs because you can't admit that you don't actually know much about the theory you're supporting. you've heard of a lot of feminist thought being smeared as white and colonial and you've heard of a branch of feminism called "decolonial", and

dismissing really excellent feminist analysis on gender, sex, and sexuality that were made before decolonial feminism was even a thing. so you should apply that "there are bad people in every field" to feminism, because you are dismissing a lot of excellent feminist theory

Well decolonial feminists give these problematic people centre stage. And like I said, a central theory of decolonial feminism is that misogyny is just the result of white supremacy, which is false. And btw when you say stuff like "not white feminism, but decolonial feminism", you're also

It’s incredibly gendered, many “working class” jobs are held by women now but they aren’t seen as blue collar work. A barista is more working class than Union autoworkers.

And actual decolonial feminists within academia like mohanty and spivak have written books and papers downplaying practices like fgm and widow burning, claiming that opposition to them is privileged feminists denying woc their "choice" or wtv. you have it backwards

You don't really know what you are talking about, sorry. People regularly levy accusations of white/ colonial feminism when women criticise misogynistic practices in the third world, bc women's rights have sometimes been used as an excuse for imperialism and colonization.

even disguises itself as feminism. you should be ashamed of promoting it in a conversation about how the severity of misogyny is ignored by the left

This is the kind of shit that encourages anti feminism lmao. decolonial feminism has repeatedly justified misogynistic practices against women in the third world by men of colour and taken the (false) stance that misogyny is downstream of white supremacy. it is left-wing antifeminism that barely

Obviously you have access to bigger platforms. But write this essay at Liberal Currents and you'd have unlimited space (word limits are oppression). I really think it's not broadly understood that misogyny is central to fascism, and thus feminism has to be central to its response.
Judging by Tate's popularity with the youth, the Republican party will get even more misogynistic in the coming years. Maga, like all fascisms, is a political movement of rape and male domination. An effective antifascism needs feminism to understand its foe. Read @aselrod.bsky.social.

Misogyny is a preeminent feature of authoritarian politics.
