We really have to start using the term "structural misogyny", just like structural racism. It isn't "woke". As maligned as "CRT" has been by being painted as the result of Butlerian postmodernism, critical race theory has its roots in radical feminist analysis, not postmodernism. But liberal feminism has abandoned the radical feminist structural analysis of patriarchy and instead embraced Butlerian postmodernism.

The irony here is that the liberal feminists are the unknowing puppets of the MRAs.
Fighting all day for men’s rights to rape, filmed rape, and access to our spaces. Handing themselves up on a platter and calling it “empowerment”.

It truly is a shame for the incels and the liberal feminists that they hate each other so much. They're each others closest ideological allies and also each other's biggest enablers
The original tweet is right. It is a pendulum. The “manosphere” is a consequence of the gains women made in the second wave of feminism and beyond.
No one wants “unity of the sexes” more than women. Women give birth to men, nurse and teach them. Women fall in love with men, give them affection and sex. Women protect men’s reputations by keeping their secrets. Men in return define themselves in antagonistic opposition to women and design systems to own and control women. If women’s love and care of men was going to change anything, it would already be changed. Even today, women still want close loving equal relationships with men, and are disappointed when they fail to achieve them. Whatever women give, men will take. Women giving of ourselves to men does not inspire men to give things to us.
Lastly, I don’t care. My beliefs serve me well. Male pandering women are not remembered by history. Women who stand up to men are the ones remembered, the ones who matter. It doesn’t take every single woman to fight, only a few. Sometimes only one. If some women would rather focus on appeasing men, so be it.
