What you need to understand is that feminism isn't just an ideology, isn't just a movement, it's a business. A multi million dollar one. And our media is very business friendly.
It's not a conspiracy. You don't need a conspiracy to have businesses acting in their best interests. Feminism sells victimhood to women, and sells the solution to it. It's an age-old formula.
Did you know you're ugly? Really ugly. 1000% of women/men say you are. But that drops to a mere 0.3% if you buy our patented Bullshit!
Make up a problem and sell the solution.
Around the net, i've consistently seen the MRM get about as much welcome as feminists. (And generally speaking, even more welcome than feminists if the feminists have been there monologueing for a while.)
Not in the mainstream media mind you, because again, it's very interested in defending businesses and their interests. Media conglomerations are kind of biased like that, i'm sorry to have to tell you.
Today, we seem to have a kind of “feminist-industrial complex” fueled, not by war, but by misinformation on the oppression of women and further greased by a natural human instinct to protect women. Feminists collect misinformation on the oppression of women, often from feminist researchers. They use this misinformation to gather support and money to build organizations. Then feminists need more (and often more sensational) misinformation to maintain and expand these organizations. Politicians often support these feminists, even if they are not feminist themselves. They may not know much about feminism and believe it is simply about gender equality. They also don’t want to risk being smeared as misogynists. They can use the (exaggerated or often invented) issues feminists bring them to court female voters (the largest voting demographic in many places). They can even slander opponents legitimately skeptical of feminist claims as misogynist. This all has allowed feminists not only huge amounts of government funding (the U.S. Violence Against Women Act alone provides 1.6 billion dollars) and support, but also positions (normally unelected bureaucratic appointments) within government. This has created a system that not only spreads feminist ideology and feminist agendas, but also provides a primary source of income for people who have turned feminism into their career. There is a lot of money and power to be made through the feminist narrative and lot of risk in criticizing it. Its often hard to tell whether an individual’s interests are chiefly financial, ideological, political or some combination of the three.
Because they are peddlers of lies and misinformation, one shouldn't take anything they say seriously, especially when they claim that feminism is the movement for gender equality.
When you identify as a feminist, you are identifying either as a liar, or as someone who's bought into misinformation. There is no "But it's an equality movement" or whatever. The misinformation is too systemic to the movement for it to be anything but a hate movement or a business venture at this point.
If I went around constantly telling people lies about how frequently immigrants commit crimes, there'd be no doubt about what I was.
With feminists, people don't see it. We've STILL got people identifying as a type of good feminist, when really, all that shows is that they are still a fucking feminist.
I.E, Someone who doesn't fact check fucking anything.
Why on earth would you believe feminism is the name to call yourself if you believe in gender equality, if you've rejected ALL THE OTHER LIES THEY TOLD YOU.
What is wrong with you people, jesus. I just don't get it.
