Text 1 Sep 59 notes “Inclusive Feminism”

meravie:

So feminism now addresses all “intersections” such as racism and cissexism etc. Ok!
Problem for you is that sadly this makes a ton of feminist “arguments” redundant.

African Americans being treated far more harshly by police (more stop and searches, longer sentences etc) amounts to oppression, going by feminist rules. They equate ethnic minorities being treated worse by police with oppression so why don’t they apply this to men too? For example, they say that the disproportionate amount of POCs in jail must mean the police are systemically racist and yet they never accuse the disproportionate amount of men in jail with systemic sexism.

Care to explain this, feminists? Or is this merely another “wat about teh menz” strawmen that you don’t want to properly address?

I just get a ‘how dare you compare the privilege of men (who aren’t oppressed) to the suffering of POCs (who are)’ derailment, which uses the typical anti-masculist circular logic: assume men aren’t oppressed because there is no evidence, dismiss evidence because men aren’t oppressed. Hoping you fare better.
