They wanted song lyrics changed, they wanted libraries that are provided upstream changed (which the author has no control over).

Both of those requests are insane.



They are trolls. They are disappointed that project maintainers are empathetic and merging the pull requests. What do they do? They ask for an impossible request and demand it again and again in the hopes they'll piss someone off.

The aim of it all?

To make all feminists look like crazy women who you just can't get along with!

How does this help anti-feminists?

It will inspire you to just tell your woman[1] to get in the kitchen whilst you pick the chili dog out of your neckbeard, dust curmbs off of your formidable beer gut, and submit your newest groundbreaking post to /r/theredpill.

Forgive the rant, but I've seen way more sexism today than I care to see. The apologists are just as bad if not worse.

Because any disagreement with fringe feminists, or "SJWs", is misogyny?


Does disagreeing with the popular male opinion make me a "Social Justice Warrior"?

I'm curious... how do you, whatever your background may be, define what is a fringe feminist? I'm interested in how you figure out what is important to a feminist and what makes her a fringe feminist? Are you, or have you ever been totally or partially female?

Furthermore, what would you consider an "acceptable feminist"? How can feminists fight for their rights in a way you approve of?


>the popular male opinion

I'm sorry, but opinions don't have genders.


That's a pretty commonly used phrase, "The popular X opinion". However, I guess it would be more accurate to say "The opinion most commonly held by X". I still think you are being pedantic though.
