Satire of Conservative Feminism Article

How can a feminist support an immigration policy of taking children away from undocumented immigrant mothers? You cannot be a “feminist” and stand by while the White House announces a domestic gag rule. This mandate would only end up withholding funding from health care centers that helps abortion services. Very conservative, isn’t it?

Might as well use professional power at the expense of other women and call it feminism.

Millions of women marched across the country in response to Mr. Trump’s election, more feminist-minded women are running for office, and younger women are increasingly passionate about social justice. This is a clear indication of the last decade of “conservative feminist work.” It’s failing.

I guess we now have a different task: protecting the movement against conservative appropriation. 

We’ve come too far to allow the right to water down a well-defined movement for its own cynical gains. Feminism does not mean applauding “anything a woman does,” unless, of course it involves hurting other women — then it means everything.
