Literally exactly what they said about 2nd wave feminism while it was happening.
We'll look back in 30 or more years and most people will just say that 3rd wave was necessary because holding sexual predators to account was common sense.
Similarly, if you actually take time to understand intersectionality it's also pretty much common sense. Some people always take these things too far, but in the end those voices die out and we look back on the movement as a whole as necessary and justified.... because it is.
I disagree. I think in 30 years, the mass majority of us will be saying "We told you so", while the select few that supported it will be quietly trying to back away from the subject. Kind of like the Covington story.
This is nothing like what feminism was.
We have the internet today, and we can research so much of the information that the feminists are claiming are causing havoc and can see that it is being grossly misrepresented/misinterpreted.
Ironically, you have sometimes these people bringing their own destruction. Creating more issues.
For example, I'm sure there were many people that openly welcomed the millions of refugees in Europe without thinking of the potential consequences of the sudden introduction of two clashing culture. Now the very own lgbt community gets shunned and sometimes attacked by the very group that some of which showed it massive support and welcoming arms for.
Wait sexual predators? You mean, the people we have always been against? Contrary to what you may think, being labeled a rapist was never deemed as a positive thing. I'm fully for holding people accountable, and it's a shame people have sometimes gotten away with it. That's a flaw within the criminal justice system, the difficulties of having crimes reported as well and the nature of the crime that sometimes relies on a "he said/she said" if actions aren't immediately taken (and no, I'm not blaming the victim as I can see how it would be a very traumatic experience and embarassing). I don't think anybody's ever been against rapists receiving justice. However, feminism is much more than just that subject.
