The baddies have really won with their idea of feminism as an evil mental illness, I see so many people saying that feminism is a red flag in women even 'gurus' saying avoid feminists... what kind of woman isn't a feminist? What kind of man really..?

I think the term itself has become a loaded one and is more of a hurdle than the general idea. You've also got the issue of its loudest opponents currently being the ones with the largest megaphone.

Yeah that's what I mean, they've shouted until everyone thinks it's something else and it doesn't matter what it really is.

She is a caricature of a left-wing militant feminist.[1][2] She thinks of herself as a champion of "wimmin's" rights but is often self-centred and dismissive of the feelings of others.[3] She rants, raises her fist in the air and foams at the mouth. She often refers to men as "phallocrats" and "potential rapists" or just "rapists", referring to other women as "fellow lesbians" regardless of their sexual orientation. Most of the storylines seem to indicate sexual frustration.

She often complains that various phenomena are metaphors for the suppression of women: fireworks are "big explosive penises" that "skewer and rape the virgin female sky". She refuses to make a snowman, instead offering to make a snow-black-lesbian-rape-victim-in-a-wheelchair. She plays cards with an old woman and ends the game by calling her a homophobe because she said "straight flush". In the end she often forgets her feminist stance and is shown asking a man to get rid of a mouse while she is standing on a chair, or knitting baby clothes.

This is what I mean by the term being loaded. I think there are a lot of people who broadly agree with the concept, but don't go around calling themselves feminists and making a big thing out of it. If you're a man who does that, you'll be looked at with suspicion by basically everyone anyway.
