In the days after Donald Trump was elected president, the 4B feminist movement is capturing young women’s interest on social media.

In the hours following former President Donald Trump’s election victory, Google searches related to 4B — a fringe South Korean feminist movement that made a name for itself in the mid to late 2010s — surged in the United States.

    It’s only liberals (and liberal media) that strips the actual political meaning out of the term

    Do you think conservatives are liberals? What is a liberal to you? Since we are criticizing removing political meaning from a word, I want to clarify this

      Do you think conservatives are liberals?

      Lol! What else did you think they were?

      Did the fact that they both fetishize capitalism convince you they were different ideologies?

      Or the fact that they both fetishize the “Rule Of Law” and the liberal nation state?

      Or the fact that they are both perfectly fine with imperialism?

      “Hot button” issues hystericized by the media does not actually qualify as ideological differentiators.

        No, I am aware conservatives are liberals. Liberalism means they are for capitalism. Did you see how I was asking to clarify what you meant? Why did you assume my knowledge?

          Because it’s only liberals that do not want to accept the truth about liberalism that respond to me here on lemmy.

          Sorry if I jumped the gun.
