I am not a feminist because I don't identify with most movements because people will assume many things about what I believe that I probably don't even agree with. I believe that women are smart and strong and are also different than men and occupy different roles in the family and community. But, why is feminism this hot button issue for men lately? Why is the narrative so negative? I've never even hung out with any hard core feminists so why are men so focused on this as a major issue? Has it really been that bad for our society if so why do you feel that way?

The most prominent of modern feminists have admitted, feminism will not work without socialism. Thus, in order for feminism to realize any positive effects, the government has to regulate the markets. Feminism isn't working in the USA. The net effect has mostly been negative, from broken families to now health crisis and the life expectancy for women is decreasing. Women are under a great deal of stress in today's society and recent studies have revealed American women are less happy today than they ever were.

Yet most women are convinced that feminism is the answer. Why? Just like people in Cuba who are also convinced that socialism has worked well, it's called propaganda. The only way that feminism can work is to implement socialism, and that is the end of American freedom.

Just ask people from Cuba or China - not the ones who are brainwashed because many of them are but the ones who have come to USA and realized how much freedom they were missing out on. They never knew because they even censor the internet in those countries. Something that the left, feminists, socialists, democrats, Marxist-Leninists (whatever you wanna call them, it's all the same) have been trying to do for over a decade. And in fact, they now have the support of Google and YouTube (owned by google) who have taken an initiative to "purge" certain materials from YouTube and from Google Search.
