"Women controlling the military-industrial complex is not feminism, it’s toxic masculinity. It’s the fruit of the sick valuing system that is blackening our air, poisoning our water, filling the oceans with plastic, bulldozing the rainforests, and marching us toward the brink of nuclear armageddon. True feminism means turning away from the toxic valuing system which elevates the most ambitious sociopaths and toward one which values empathy, collaboration, nurturing and peace instead."

I agree that women gaining positions of power and doing bad stuff is not feminism, but why isn't it just toxic humanity or corporatism and greed (capitalism) or sociopathy/psychopathy? Why are men to be blamed for the bad actions of women? Simply because the system that is inherently corrupt is mostly run by men? Men are to blame for not changing the system, but women aren't to blame for going along with the system even when they start to gain positions of power? It's their greed of money and possibly power, not anything having to do with "toxic masculinity". She's putting the value of bad on men and the value of good on women and "true feminism" as absolute values. When women do bad things, she's saying it's toxic masculinity like women aren't doing it on their own accord. She's saying men are bad influences and women are nothing but victims. I don't agree with that.

Very good points.

Men have nothing to do with feminism... Its about women... Sheesh... Men are just being crybabies

Some of us might be interested in how and why you disagree with Johnstone's ideology on a system created by powerful men, such as the value system she suggest, and a substance free narrative the media uses. Please do enlighten us!

@William_Mary doesn't matter to me who created the system... Men or women... Feminism is about the rights of women... Not the rights of women with regard to men or anything else... And I don't think I'm enlightening anyone ... I'm offering my opinion only
