Womens march origins

Why are you anti-feminist?

Not that user but probably because modern feminism is bourgeois misandrist bullshit.

i feel that their ability to control their reproduction has got us partially into this mess. not talking about family planning, but the more "traditional" radfem poisoning of college academic wells.

yes wide-access to birth control is great, i have no problem with it of course but that became an uncontrollable snowball into other fake radfem myths that have influenced TWO entire generations

i think middle-class white women are screaming the loudest not because of the "danger" they face but because they have the most to lose. when a group is muh privileged at the expense of the other and loses that muh privilege it feels like it's being oppressed. in this case middle-class white women have been benefiting over minorities, the poor/workers, and men so it's a triple-backlash

and while i totally agree that higher reproduction leads to greater poverty and crime, that is a long-term problem that will never see fruition because male birth control is around the corner and will fix that problem at the source

but we're getting slightly off-topic here, the reason i made the thread was any sources of evidence to the marches financial/structural/organizational origins

outside of the soros NYT article i can't find shit

He sums it up here .

yeah I get what you mean. Feminists tend to use rational issues that nearly everyone supports as a spring board for their wacky gender supremacists crap.

Oh yeah no doubt. It's the same thing with the occupy protests. The ones screaming the loudest were the petite bourgeois that were angry they were losing their comfortable positions. Just an income inequality is important to the working class so is reproductive equality. Also I do fully support male birth control and think it will have incredibly positive effect on the rights of men and society is a whole. I was just stating this assault on women's reproductive rights is extremely dangerous. I doubt this little temper tantrum will amount to much. It's just a way for middle class liberals to pat themselves on the back based on issues their comfortable with.

You're really supporting his argument with that post buddy.

Are you retarded?

THE CURRENT YEAR

Like, I understand a lot of ya'll get your education from people pointing at ~outrageous~ Tumblr posts, but feminism is a really broad thing. Ideologically, there's room to mix a lot of things in. You don't have to be hardcore or ONLY feminist to be feminist, because if you agree that women should have equal rights and opportunities there's a good chance you're already kinda there. Those values are a result of feminism - like, the actual mainstreaming of them and implementing of them.

Having financial backing does not de-legitimize protest.

i'm tired of hearing about Soros paying people to do stuff i would do for free.
where is that guy? i wanna get some money.

I can believe in those thing and not be a feminist. I don't support that false dichotomy. it implies that if you don't support feminism you mus be a women hater.

This, or the fact that there were boomer middle-of-the-road Democrat women there.

AFAIK, it was initially planned by like 5 women over facebook and splinter groups copied that and set up events all over the country/world. Instead of minimizing what they accomplished, why not focus on how and where they succeeding and focus on how to bring those people further left?

I think you're the equivalent of some red-scared American saying "yeah I like all things socialist movements brought me, but I don't want to call myself a socialist, that's a dirty word"

same thing bruh

The count is now up to 3 million across the country and the numbers keep on comin'. That makes it bigger than Occupy.

Not really. I don't support feminism's view on gender, history or labor. It's not the label itself. I don't support the ideology and I have no desire to lend the movement any legitimacy by associating with it.

I'm going to an event tomorrow I also applied to help organize it but never heard back

Pls help how do I into slick entryism

What's the matter, kid? Scared of women?

You said you already you believed in equal rights and opportunities. Congrats, you're a feminist in my book.

t. woman

Internalised hatred of women detected.

make fliers with info on how to get in touch with a local org you know?

Theres that false dichotomy. Not really. I usually get along better with women then men actually.

>Congrats, you're a feminist in my book

Whatever. I'm not anymore feminist then I'm a n MRA for supporting equal rights and opportunities for everyone.

The only organization I know of in my area is the Green Party, and I'm not even sure they have much of a presence.

Genuinely good event co-opted in part by Democrats. Good b/c it was any massive resistance against Trump, and it gave socialist orgs opportunities to recruit people. Bad because it was so broad we had a ton of Hillary Shills and too vague of aims.

Angela Davis speaking to a huge crowd is never a bad thing. It did way more good than harm in the end and makes Trump look like a feeble cuck with no mandate.

go figure

Once again feminism manages to shit up a thread. Well done.

It was organized in a city to basis, I believe. There definitely wasn't one big funder behind it.

didn't you hear? george soros literally handed out checks to everybody

you snooze you lose boyos

which makes it a problem. if neoliberal ideologue is cemented in yet another generation, economic revolution will never happen

this is an astroturfing event
