The Feminism Thread

That's politics. That was literally the focus of multiple presidential debate questions and a ton of money was decided based on the okay of feminist organizations who watch this.

Jesus, most of you simply do not understand how pervasive this is. Read this. It's about the Brave Girl statue, I had no idea people didn't know it was set up by a marketing firm. One of the biggest contributors to Feminist projects is Wall Street--and before you think "well that's good PR!"--they hardly use it in their PR campaigns. So why do it? Because feminist campaigns and groups, speaking out about issues, crippled occupy wall street. It also tends to snap any discussion about the gap between the wealthy and poor right in half and makes it about the gap between men and women (Which most men don't have money either and thus its a stupid argument). Essentially feminism lets Wall Street blend in, a wolf in sheep's clothing, it gives them the cover of every white male out there, so when people rage against 'white males', there is a FAR bigger back lash than if they raged against Wall Street/The Rich.

You can't segregate this out from politics, because it IS politics.
