    The bottom-left one for Feminists doesn’t fit. The others are things that were created by their own group, for example, the KKK was created by Christians. That Feminist meme, on the other hand, wasn’t created by feminists but by someone else to mock them.

      The number of assholes calling themselves feminists vastly outnumber the actual feminists. They have lost control of the word.

        Most feminists just don’t call themselves feminists anymore because doing so makes you very likely to get harassed

            Well they’re not really the same thing, feminism is a social movement with the goal with furthering equality. Egalitarianism just means you think everyone’s equal, doesn’t mean you actually care enough to make that a reality.

                  You implied that an egalitarian person doesn’t have the goal of furthering equality, did you not?

                  The Wikipedia article on egalitarianism says:

                  By promoting equal opportunities, egalitarianism aims to level the playing field and reduce disparities that result from social inequalities.

                  and

                  Egalitarian doctrines have supported many modern social movements, including the Enlightenment, feminism, civil rights, and international human rights.

                  Do you not feel that what you claim and what Wikipedia says are in conflict? At any rate, what I mean by being egalitarian is also to work toward achieving an egalitarian society, and in practice I do work toward that goal.

        Good point. Why would an atheist hate something which doesn’t exist. The whole meme is bad.
