sorry, no, i think it was used as a way to head off accusations of misogyny. If you can get in the "anyone who comes at me is a White Feminist" (note capitalisation) will stop most people in their tracks. Because they understand from hearing that term (where if they don't know the actual term, they don't know about the capitalisation) that anyone who contradicts the speaker is a racist.
It is underhand, but clever. We should totally, as GC feminists, try to work out how to do the same.
