    A comic that shows a good example of misogyny. Bigots who hate women use the term “feminist” to attack women. It’s the same shit as complaining there’s no “White History Month”. The point of those terms is to promote equality while calling out the oppression of said group that needs their rights protected. But attacking verbiage that everyone understands is a way for bigots to dogwhistle and attack those groups.

      And addressing your poor comment further: you’re part of the problem for believing the original comic is actuate or agreeable in any way. Bullshitting the general statement that you’re about equality is a joke. Yeah? How about the equality of people in Africa compared to feminists in America? You feminists gearing up to tackle that inequality any time soon? No? So obviously your focus is much more restricted, and that’s fine. Just stop the bullshit. Feminism is not and never was for progressing anything but female equality, so stop virtue signaling that it’s about equality for all when that’s clearly not the case.
