And how is feminist is a good thing? They just advocate one side and butcher the other side. I guess what they actually want is not equality but matriarchy.
IDK; I think that when applied appropriately it can be a good thing - but I'd not call what you are describing as "feminism;" I'd call that sexism. There's a difference between supporting sexual/gender equality and wanting to reverse the current situation (and I think most of us can agree that there are times that exist where men are at an advantage over women).

Or well, everything just power play like how king in middle age use religion and now we're using sjw.
I am sure that I got canceled from this because I sound like hating woman but I just want equal chance regardless of the gender or race or whatever but oh well
Oh boi, I probably should talk about politik. I am very bad with word when comes to it.
From your struck-out text it sounds like you might be in agreement with me.

They wanted to create a feminist academic discipline in the 70s. Nothing really credible actually existed at that stage, so they co-oped linguistics academics and marxist theory to critically deconstruct everything based on idea that men are the oppressors throughout history, masculinity was bad and that women as a gender had to unite against men.
It's certainly true that feminism in academia has co-opted conflict theories. But I think it is a bit of a stretch to assume that it was about women specifically uniting against men. I think many of them wanted for men to reflect on what they defined as 'masculine' and decide if some of their predispositions might be harmful to their own wellbeing, too.

They assumed because actual misogyny existed that all men hated women and they haven't developed much or changed since.
Again, I don't think that's all feminists.

However their movement has become mainstream and well monetized.

Women are unhappier than 100 years ago, so feminism has obviously worked.
And now I'm sad.
