How do you reach that conclusion?
By being dumb
Wise words hurf.
I can't speak for them, but I reached it after years of being a feminist, reading several million words of feminist material and speaking with hundreds of feminists online and IRL.
Except for one thing:
starfighter still believes that the intention of feminism is to fight sexism and that the method is wrong since feminism is itself inherently and profoundly sexist.
I no longer believe that's the intention. There has never been a case of a biological group advocacy ideology that was genuinely intended to be about equality between people in that biological group and people not in it.
I regard feminism as being more like the BNP, just far more successful. Fundamentally bigoted and intended to be that way and dominated by people who are bigoted in the "right" way, but with a false front that has fooled some people into supporting it because they've been taken in by the propaganda and think it's something quite different to what it actually is.

A lot of feminists do seem to act like that, completely counter to what they pretend to believe in. You can't fight for gender equality while being a sexist ****. But conversely, a lot of feminists aren't like that, and saying all of them are is just stereotypical and exactly what the comic criticises them of. It's one big circle...
I not sure that banging thin air will do you much good.
Since the point of the thread has been censored away, it would make sense for a mod to delete the entire thread.
It doesn't make any sense to have a thread to discuss a cartoon that people in the thread aren't allowed to see.

Good news everyone!
And now you'll all thank me because that reminded you of futurama.

To be quite honest i didn't even notice, but to even think about questioning the rules in here is just pointless at best, likely to get you suspended or banned at worst.

The deal being that they were words used to cause offence and have an impact the problem is nowadays they're used so often that they've lost their impact previously they were rarely used and as such had a much harsher effect on people which is why I tend not to use them unless the situation calls for it after all someone who doesn't swear all the time actually swearing has a pronounced effect compared to someone who has a gutter for a mouth.
Basically overuse has dulled their impact.

Oh i like her, a lot!
To be frank i can't remember the last time i met a proper feminist, i fact i think it's very out of fashion and most women seem to have regressed to accepting the fact as men as the stronger sex.
