Disagree. People would not have turned to the far right in the 2010s if we had done feminism better. Small changes in strategy would have gone a long way -- like being more welcoming to straight white men in the 4th wave feminist movement. In contrast, people turning to feminism at that same time was inevitable, since the status quo was (and is) racist, anti-feminist, and anti-lgbt.

This post is just an attempt to not own up to how the left could have been smarter and done better.
