Seems like this subreddit has recently appeared criticising a lot of the toxic misogyny that is apparent among GenZ boys/men.

Shit like this thread gives a good example of the mindsets young women are dealing with among these guys: https://www.reddit.com/r/FuckYouZoomer/comments/1gv5pdl/date_with_a_typical_podcast_bro_brainrotted/

Alt link.

Maybe this isn't the space that will properly counter it, some of it is deeply reactionary, but there seems to be an energy and interest building in countering it now. Enough people seem to view it as a problem.

This is absolutely not feminist content.

There's an overwhelmingly ageist bent, and even the non-feminist criticism of men is viewed primarily through the bent that misogyny is a problem specific to zoomers.

Again, the criticism here isn't a feminist one, the Redditors there are insulting men for not being masculine and patriarchal correctly. Also, there is absolutely no learning or actual feminist analysis being applied to any of it. It's just reactionaries shitting on a different group of reactionaries for being the wrong kind of reactionary.

Let me put this as simply as possible: Women ragging on men is not inherently feminism, analysis through an informed and explicitly feminist lens is required.

Once again, Betteridge's Law applies.

Is /r/fuckyouzoomer emerging as a sort of new semi-feminist shitredditsays?

No.

yeah idk it just seems like a subreddit where people who read those generation-bashing article titles and take them 100% seriously as if it's not some shit that some asshole just made up for clicks go to relentlessly shit on a specific group of people
