maybe you should’ve replied to the post itself to argue that ‘men who hate women’ can’t possibly define the movement
I’ve been doing that. Your comments specifically seemed a good place to start.
Individual people can certainly try to define a movement, but the voices of the majority of people in the movement are going to best represent what the movement actually is. Most sizable movements inevitably have some bad actors that do not represent the majority of people in the movement. If we judged every movement by its worst individuals we would never have any kind of social change at all. edit: spacing

Maybe you should’ve started with the post itself, because all you’ve done so far is confuse me about how your point related to my point other than some mildly related tangent.

…well that’s a completely separate conversation and has nothing to do with men from outside the movement apparently being able to define feminism more than actual feminists.
