            Lmfao, of course *you * think you shouldn’t have to. But you do! You asked why, to explain it to you, I need to understand what you’re struggling with.

            You refusing to say the quiet part out loud just confirms to me what I knew from that first comment - that you’re not genuinely interested, and that I have better things to waste my time on than on providing an education to someone who clearly doesn’t want it.

              If I make a meme which asserts that a giant Blahaj in the sky controls the American government, and you call it into question, is the burden of proof on you to explain what it is about the meme you don’t understand, or on me to show you why I believe it’s true?

              To put it in less sarcastic terms, the answer is that what I’m struggling with is the whole thing.

                You have put very little to no effort into your why question, and it was very effective at making the op mad, so if your goal was trolling I suppose it was effective.

                If you are serious, then you don’t have a good grasp of intersectionality and it isn’t ops responsibility to teach you… Particularly when you are aggressive about your lack of knowledge being a good place to argue from.

                  I am not trolling, but was hoping for somebody, OP or otherwise, to explain why they believe the message of the meme to be true, so that I or other lemmings could learn a bit more about the subject. I’m glad that the community has stepped in to share their knowledge. My intent was not to be aggressive with my comparison to Russell’s teapot Blahaj, if that’s what led you to your judgement of my attitude, but to show OP that the burden of proof was on them to show why the two movements are as interdependent as they claim.

          I think we first need to define “failed….” The cat’s been out of the bag on both of these issues for a while now. Racism and misogyny will still be around, but the pushback from the past makes it kind of hard to believe that we’ll all just go back to the standards of the 1800’s or something…

            So you’re claiming racism and sexism are what, an inevitable part of (white male) human nature we just have to put up with, while you get on with your oppressing? Yet if I said men are shit I guarantee you’d reply with “not all men”… Gtfoh you racist sexist ass.
