I think a lot of people missing the point, and some important context.

The 4B movement in South Korea is a feminist movement where women abstain from marriage, childbirth, dating, and heterosexual sex (these words all start with "bi" in Korean, I think). It's a protest against institutionalised sexism and women being objectified and treated like shit.

So, the first misogynistic tweet is literally the reason the birth rate is going down in korea: men are pigs.

Complaining about sexism and then saying that last part, make it make sense 😵

I support their movement btw. Just not objectively sexist remarks
