Feminism isn’t a movement, and it isn’t a philosophy. It’s a tactic.
A tactic doesn’t have a fixed overarching goal. It’s simply a means of getting whatever the individual user of that tactic happens to want. That’s why feminists keep telling you that feminism came in different “waves”. It’s simple. Different generations of women wanted different shit. They just used the same method to get it.
What, then, is the method?
Feminism is the act of using shame and guilt to evoke the male protective instinct.
That’s it. That’s all. Think about how it works:
1. Find something you think is a problem, that affects you (a woman), regardless of whether or not it affects mostly women, or affects you because you’re a woman, or has anything to do with being a woman at all.
2. Construct a narrative that frames this problem as unfairness to women.
3. Relate this narrative to any man who will listen, and tell them that they personally are oppressing women unless they change their behaviour to fix this problem for you.
4. Repeat until men give you whatever it is you wanted.
So now can we ask why feminism exists? How about why it is so prevalent? Sure. It’s easy to explain now.
Feminism is prevalent in the modern world because the most powerful demographic of men in history became especially vulnerable to appeals to guilt and shame.
So why isn’t feminism being used against the muslim world? Easy to see that now.
Feminists don’t go after muslims because the feminist tactic doesn’t work on them.
So why do feminists come to the (verbal) defense of third world peasants who treat women as cattle? Simple to understand now. Muslims aren’t a target for the feminist tactic, they are a weapon. The concept of them as poor oppressed brown people who are victims of the evil white man (instead of the armed rabble gathered at the gates of civilization)… this can be used to make first world men feel more guilt and shame, and to get those men in the habit of feeling guilt and shame.
So what can we do with this knowledge?
Well, we now know how to protect ourselves from feminism. Become immune to guilt and shame. You’ll still be vulnerable to attack by herds of manipulated men, but you won’t be one of them.
We also know to stop blaming feminism for our problems, whatever they might be. Feminism is a thing precisely because it works… and who has allowed it to work? Modern first world men. Too domesticated. Too ashamed. Too unselfish. Too weak.
Of course it was inevitable that women should discover that femininity (which offers submission in exchange for protectiveness) was more effort than applying shame and guilt (which requires women to give nothing). Women did it because men incentivized it.
Feminism is not new. It is not a game-changer. It is not an alteration in the terrain. The Great Game has always existed and always will. Everything is a move.
