Why so many "anti-feminists" in the atheist community?

Agreed. People spend more time arguing over who said the right thing in the right way instead of actually addressing whatever the issue is.

I also get tired of the attention whoring, where teenagers on the internet under this "social justice!" culture suddenly become experts on societal issues and have an opinion about everything. Some of these kids genuinely mean well I'm sure, most have no clue what they're talking about or how the world works and just want to be in the loop.

Then you have the "intersectional feminism" crowd with their selective outrage, who blow up at so-called "privileged people" for relatively trival things, while defending members of minority groups even when they say far worse shit. Prime example, I saw one blog write an article about "The lies Christianity tells about sex", and then shortly after try to claim it was a lie that Islam discriminates against the LGBT community.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable."
