I've Been To Over 20 Homeschool Conferences. The Things I've Witnessed At Them Shocked Me. - Lemmy.World

When I hear a woman say “I’m not a feminist” my first thought is “WHY THE HELL NOT??”
because the word feminism has different meanings for different people. for some it means equality and a way to get there. for others it means men are bad and women should get priority treatment. communication is hard, when there is no objective meaning for any of the words we are using.
But that second meaning is a bogeyman. No one says “I am a feminist” and means that.

No one? There are 8 billion people screaming out whatever random ideas occurs to them for hours a day across the planet. You can’t make that statement about anything anymore.

Also there is also just plain misinformation campaigns. People creating strawman arguments pretending to be on the other side.
