If the average American were asked what they imagine the priorities of the feminist movement are these days, most people would likely cite concerns like "fighting abortion bans" or "getting justice for sexual violence victims" or boring mainstays like "equal pay for equal work." But if you listen in to the world of right-wing social media influencers, they have a different answer. To them, feminists are single-mindedly obsessed with destroying women who identify as "tradwives."

PC? You mean words and actions having consequences and previously marginalized groups having a voice in society? Why do those things upset you so much?

Why do you think that building an egalitarian society where all voices are actualized is bad?
