Lengthy but wonderful to read.

But there exists among the young Nigerian progressive set, so busy sucking at the teat of popular western movements, a certain myopia to the damage some of the ideologies they parrot do, and how far back women are slipping as they flock to trendier movements.

They eschew the work yet undone because it’s low profile and thankless, preferring to haunt social media where, power drunk on neologisms signalling their in group status, they occupy themselves with boosting their social cachet by scavenging for outrage with which to attack thought criminals.

Theirs is a lurid combination of blind acceptance of anything and any choices that make people feel good, regardless of the impact on women.

Women are merely an afterthought in a frankenfeminism that cares more about how many intersections you can claim to be defending as if they're pins for the collecting.

Never mind over 90% of the imported issues they spend their time talking about aren't even in the top five major concerns facing women in Nigeria.

This is utterly, utterly brilliant.

FEMINISM AS WAR
All ideas, all policies, all positions, must be evaluated for their obvious and innocuous, direct and indirect, first and second order impact on the dignity, wellbeing, safety, and status of women.
Women must aggressively beat back the institutional capture by those who wish to undermine and degrade women’s rights, as well as fight to create new opportunities for women to close the gap with men.

Thank you for sharing.
