The oppressed can't be the oppresor - why feminists accept sexism in their spaces
In any feminist space you will find misandry, quickly and easily.
Whenever feminists are asked about the sexism in their spaces, or movement, they generally reply by disputing that misandry exists, minimising it's effects or with whatboutism stating that male misogyny effects women far worse.
The huge problem with this is that feminism has already accepted sexism at it's core. It sees sexism everywhere and because of this has now accepted sexism.Misandric comments, ideas, man hating are all absolutely rife in feminist spaces.
Claiming that misandry is fine because the oppressed can never be the oppressor is not borne out by history which tells us a very, very different story. Oppressed people, who accept prejudice to their oppresor have a strong tradition of repeating their oppression in an even worse way. If you look at the actions of Israel in Palestine then you can see, very clearly, how an oppressed people (the Jews in World War 2) really are very, very capable of being an even worse oppressor.
The killing fields of Cambodia has a similar story. The Khmer Rouge, the opressed peasants, overthrew their oppressors and ended up with between 1.5Million and 2.5Million dead, or 25% of the population. These are extreme examples, I grant you. However anybody who is buying the "oppressed can't be oppressor" narative really needs to check their history books.
