It is rarely a popular time to be a feminist. And in times of revolution and upheaval (the fight against fascism requires both) when you would think a shit-stirring feminist would be welcome, it is often a lonely and unpopular pursuit to agitate for the destruction of patriarchy because some people think you mean the destruction of men and many men think you should shut up because now is not the time to whine about “women’s stuff” when so many “important” issues are at stake, i.e. what they think is important.
