She brings up an interesting point. Feminist consider western men the enemy but welcome refuges from patriarchal countries with open arm. She says that modern day feminist have fallen under cultural marxism and don't care about European culture. Feminist today want to destablize European nations to make them weak.
I agree feminism is weaponised. Most activism is. The subject is unimportant. Usually someone is trying to get attention, money, and control. I imagine some elites are happy to see us fighting within ourselves. It's distracting and takes the pressure off them.

Yes, I do agree with that. And I saw Eva Vlaardingerbroek (flar-dinger-broook) say this years ago. This isn't new for her. She really is a bad-ass considering how extreme left the Dutch/Norse region of Europe is.

No, I agree with this beautiful Czech-Swedish-American woman who became a feminist because of all the bullshit in the US of A.

America Made Me a Feminist
By Paulina Porizkova
June 10, 2017I used to think the word “feminist” reeked of insecurity. A woman who needed to state that she was equal to a man might as well be shouting that she was smart or brave. If you were, you wouldn’t need to say it. I thought this because back then, I was a Swedish woman.
I was 9 when I first stepped into a Swedish school. Freshly arrived from Czechoslovakia, I was bullied by a boy for being an immigrant. My one friend, a tiny little girl, punched him in the face. I was impressed. In my former country, a bullied girl would tattle or cry. I looked around to see what my new classmates thought of my friend’s feat, but no one seemed to have noticed. It didn’t take long to understand that in Sweden, my power was suddenly equal to a boy’s.
In Czechoslovakia, women came home from a long day of work to cook, clean and serve their husbands. In return, those women were cajoled, ignored and occasionally abused, much like domestic animals. But they were mentally unstable domestic animals, like milk cows that could go berserk you if you didn’t know exactly how to handle them.
In Sweden, the housekeeping tasks were equally divided. Soon my own father was cleaning and cooking as well. Why? He had divorced my mother and married a Swedish woman.As high school approached, the boys wanted to kiss us and touch us, and the girls became a group of benevolent queens dispensing favors. The more the boys wanted us, the more powerful we became. When a girl chose to bestow her favors, the lucky boy was envied and celebrated. Slut shaming? What’s a slut?
Condoms were provided by the school nurse without question. Sex education taught us the dangers of venereal diseases and unwanted pregnancy, but it also focused on fun stuff like masturbation. For a girl to own her sexuality meant she owned her body, she owned herself. Women could do anything men did, but they could also — when they chose to — bear children. And that made us more powerful than men. The word “feminist” felt antiquated; there was no longer a use for it.
When I moved to Paris at 15 to work as a model, the first thing that struck me was how differently the men behaved. They opened doors for me, they wanted to pay for my dinner. They seemed to think I was too delicate, or too stupid, to take care of myself.
Instead of feeling celebrated, I felt patronized. I claimed my power the way I had learned in Sweden: by being sexually assertive. But Frenchmen don’t work this way. In discos, I’d set my eye on an attractive stranger, and then dance my way over to let him know he was a chosen one. More often than not, he fled. And when he didn’t run, he asked how much I charged.
In France, women did have power, but a secret one, like a hidden stiletto knife. It was all about manipulation: the sexy vixen luring the man to do her bidding. It wasn’t until I reached the United States, at 18, and fell in love with an American man that I truly had to rearrange my cultural notions.It turned out most of America didn’t think of sex as a healthy habit or a bargaining tool. Instead, it was something secret. If I mentioned masturbation, ears went red. Orgasms? Men made smutty remarks, while women went silent. There was a fine line between the private and the shameful. A former gynecologist spoke of the weather when doing a pelvic exam, as if I were a Victorian maiden who’d rather not know where all my bits were.
In America, a woman’s body seemed to belong to everybody but herself. Her sexuality belonged to her husband, her opinion of herself belonged to her social circles, and her uterus belonged to the government. She was supposed to be a mother and a lover and a career woman (at a fraction of the pay) while remaining perpetually youthful and slim. In America, important men were desirable. Important women had to be desirable. That got to me.
In the Czech Republic, the nicknames for women, whether sweet or bitter, fall into the animal category: little bug, kitten, old cow, swine. In Sweden, women are rulers of the universe. In France, women are dangerous objects to treasure and fear. For better or worse, in those countries, a woman knows her place.
But the American woman is told she can do anything and then is knocked down the moment she proves it. In adapting myself to my new country, my Swedish woman power began to wilt. I joined the women around me who were struggling to do it all and failing miserably. I now have no choice but to pull the word “feminist” out of the dusty drawer and polish it up.

The lady makes a lot of sense!
We have this tendency in America and Europe to assume that our ideas are so evidentally superior that people of other parts of the world would look at what we have and aspire to it. Unfortunately, the reality is that the supposed superiority of cultural liberalism, globalism, and accepting all people is not only not presumed by other parts of the world, but it's even scoffed at and dismissed. Western people like to think that our way of life is so obviously better that someone from another country would come here and see that it's obvious women are equal to men, and wonder how they lived in such a backward place back home.
But again, the reality is in stark contrast with what we've been led to believe.
Modern women really do not know what's good for them. They have no frame of reference for it.
No. The issues she brings up are strawman bullshit from chauvinists.
1) feminism has nothing to do with making men feel bad.
2) nor whether a thousand single men from a patriarchal society immigrate here.
3) It doenst have anything to do with marxism
4) and feminism has no relation to “European countries vs non European countries”. Thats code for white supremacy btw…Ironically, religious countries are where women are brutalized whilst secular countries give them the most freedom. Bar none.
Everything to online incels is communism. Eating rice krispies instead of corn flakes is communism, eating your egg scrambled is communism. . . not having sex with an incel is communist.
I agree 100%.
On a side note, I think that woman's brain is so hot, I wish more women were this awake to the communist Marxist ideological weapons being perpetrated against us on a daily, and it makes a woman significantly more attractive and gives her a much higher value. There is nothing sexier than intelligence, to me.
I love you blond Europe woman! *screams*How is there possibly any real correlation between the two other than say, both being ideologies that want what they believe is good for people?
Isn't it pretty obvious by now we do need a new system? Might as well mash our heads together to make one instead of reiterating that one time one tried to come into existence and had war declared on it and got strangled before leaving the figurative cradle.Yea I would say that’s accurate, pretty much every institution in the west has been taken over by Howard Zion type figures. First wave feminist weren’t communist. Communism started to enter the minds out of a feminist and be a part of feminism in the 1960s Second wave is when it started
My God, that's so complicated...
I know that communism, according to the critics is viewed as totalitarianism, restrictions of human rights, etc. Which I do agree.
But I don't remember seeing loads of feminists ever talking about communism...
Why would they even be related to each other?
Like, what does feminism has to do with communism?
And why specifically in the western countries?
I'm confused lol
P. S.: I'm not a feminist
Video was TL:DR. But the whole premise sounds screwy. Putin is trying to bring down the West by hacking our systems and promoting Alt. Right madness. Feminism doesn't even feature. In fact the opposite is true, feminism was weaponised by capitalists. They now have 100% of the population working for 50% of the income.
Both the European Union and the US are both now starting to demonize single men because we're hoarding cash and wealth that women aren't entitled to. If they start to take that property from us in order to give to women, that's textbook communism.
She's neither beautiful or badass, nor well informed.
Feminism isn't a monolith and she's confused most of her argument with fundamentalism and misandry, which are very different things.
Of course it is. Weakening familial bonds is an important part of Marxism (Marx himself wanted to abolish families) and that type of thinking is extended to society altogether.
No. If anything, Western feminism was a product of liberalism not marxism. Liberals are allergic to Marxian ideals since liberalism is a bourgeois ideology.
It's simply to disitabilize western countries, i can't say it's "communism" it has nothing to do with the marxist theory, however it works like communism to disistabilize and destroy the western christian superior civilization.
Well I can't argue with anything she said because she's right. But that language is really annoying.
I agree with her 100%. Modern-day feminism is just Marx in drag.
Mmmmm kind of. I wouldn’t be surprised if Russian retards were trolling the US mainstream with their bull shit, overtly or covertly.
Makes as much sense as saying gays caused hurricanes.
Yep, she's on it... Basic communist subversion and demoralization.
Yes Feminism was a tool used by Socialists from the very beginning during the French Revolution. It has always been Socialist, and every Socialist party in existence has a Women's wing.
