Feminism is more complicated and more simple than that.
Simply,
feminism is about making sure that women don't get screwed over. Yes, there are some professional feminists, and some of those professional feminists have a business model of professional victims. Some feminists seem more interested in propagating and sustaining their movement and funding engine than in actually getting things done. But overall, once you sort past the bad actors, scam artists, and occasional raging hate-filled maniac, the movement has a clear mission of trying to make sure that no woman ever gets screwed over for any reason.
The problem, of course, is that sometimes, trying to make sure all women are protected from everything has collateral effects that aren't very nice or fair.
Oh yeah, "professional victims" ; people just
love being threatened with rape and murder, don't they?
Were they 'asking for it' ?
Did they provoke it?
What were they wearing or doing before those threats happened?
Oh yeah, they dared to say a
word about sexism whilst being a woman.
Naff off.
You do realise statistics regarding false rape reports are available and indicate that the rate of false reporting is
far lower than just about any other crime, right?
If I remember rightly, it's between 1% & 3%.
But of course that doesn't prop up your ideological stance that women are just out to malign those poor men with accusations of rape.
Never mind that a fair portion of rapes go unreported, oh no; the real tragedy is a tiny minority of assholes that are in fact not statistically relevant to discussions like this.
