Does anyone else feel like this community is white feminism coded. Like their ideas of liberation are so backwards and self centered

People forget that feminism isn’t just about liberations for women, it’s for everyone and also having a deep understanding of prejudice against and in other groups of people

yes. as a person who used to be a conservative maga supporter and has to unlearn a lot of things, white feminism is one of many things i’m unlearning and deconstructing. it feels like some people only care about feminism for themselves but refuse to listen when it involves other minorities and marginalized groups.

Yes. Specifically very white pop feminist too. I think most people’s concept of feminism seems to be based in pop culture and not theory and praxis.

It’s all about individualism, choice and personal freedoms. When feminism should be about collective liberation from all systems of oppression since they’re all interlinked

she’s saying that when people think of feminism they only think of themselves and what it does for them instead of everyone as a whole which then subconsciously excludes the groups she’s talking about.
