I'm not saying the actions of feminism today retroactively change the actions in the past.

I am specifically talking about modern, first-world feminism.

It's the new hotness. And it's terrible. It basically comes across as something middle/upper class white women use to pretend like they're shoulder to shoulder with the most downtrodden of humanity on the planet.

And you know, I'm super against trying to play Hardship Olympics games: problems are problems, it doesn't matter if something is small or big, if it's wrong, it's wrong. Unfortunately, don't seem to be many feminists who believe that. Even entertain the idea of issues men may face and it's like haha big deal, pfft, if they even acknowledge such things exist then it's out with the strategy of well, women have it worse, so, back of the line, no one cares, us first. And when some white woman in a first world country is talking about the plights of being condescended to sometimes in the tech industry, these demands for "you must be THIS oppressed to speak up" gatekeeper come across as unbelievably disingenuous and just used to silence anything that could steal power and attention away from them.

Do you honestly think the average person on the internet who complains about feminism or "those pesky es jay double u's!" has feminism in the middle east or something in mind? No. Who's complaining about that. But that doesn't give legitimacy to a charlatan like Zoe Quinn or an insufferable combative insecure asshole like Price.
