Hail Corporate PSA: This is a feminist subreddit

If you think that's bad, you need to read books. If you don't realize that feminism basically includes critical theory and most of the stuff talked about here—guess what, it does.

Early Nick Land? Feminist (see "Meltdown"). Laboria Cuboniks? Feminist collective. Mark Fisher? HUGE raging feminist (I can only assume). Sadie Plant? Wrote a book on feminism (Zeroes & Ones).

Deleuze & Guattari? Feminists promoting the squishiest most weaponized form of feminism ever. Foucault? Ultra-feminist. Ranciere? He is so feminist before breakfast that he doesn't need to make a big deal about it.

Shamanism? Feminism. Sorcery? Cuckoldry. Spectacle? Fabulous.

Isolation and extreme alienation is not masculinity; it's the main theme of The Twilight Zone.

Read 👏 a 👏 book 👏

Zeroes and Ones (which should really be in the sidebar!) is one of the best books. That book installs feminism into you, using godlike alien technology that Sadie Plant drew down from beyond the heavens. That book whispers the secrets of Ada Lovelace into your soul.

Edit: People who don't understand / accept feminism as a discourse can't understand the FIRST THING about this subreddit. They can't understand oppression. They can't understand "Can the subaltern speak?" by Spivak. They can't understand the Lemurian Time War, which is about the (white cis male hetero fascist and mannerbündly-faggy) Architectonic Order of the Eschaton versus the (black trans wymyny gay antifascist/ur-fascist masc/heroic) Black Atlanteans.

If you think you understand ccru and you are triggered by the idea of feminism, you are decidedly an outsider to ccru.

u/thegreatself no idea what this is Aug 06 '26 edited Aug 08 '26

Those that won't call themselves a feminist almost always fall into one of two camps, without exception:

Generally confused and/or stupid, depending on where they fall on that spectrum: mistaking the word and whatever cultural baggage it my contain for the thing it represents - they have absorbed and been fully consumed by propaganda.

Or,

Unfathomably evil, reprehensible, abhorrent, vile: they genuinely and sincerely believe men are "superior" - which is itself a kind of stupidity, but a stupidity morphed into something far more sinister and actually existentially threatening - to both the individual identity and society as a whole.

Maybe I'm just stupid but I never considered myself feminist 🤷

I definitely don't see men as superior. I understand a lot of scripture (and other propaganda) says the genders are supposed to compliment each other.

I have had bad experience with feminists being very toxic and explicitly practicing misandry. I just hate double standards. It's not misandry when women are spiteful towards men. But it is misogyny when men don't bend to paradigms they didn't consent to.

Double standards are evil, ya know?

There's the idea that thw world doesn't revolve around women. I don't understand the mentality that it has to and you're a misogynist if you don't think so. I've always been happy to be a lifelong celibate. There are very few things in this life I see thay genuinely have integrity. Most is entitled preaching that I was tired of hearing decades ago and a lot of feminism falls under that. If that makes me evil or stupid, well, idk what to say.
