It wasn't the oppression olympics nor did it fracture the whole feminist movement (anymore than white feminists did by ignoring the sexism/racism combination faced by black women) until it was appropriated by the woke crowd. Instead of demonizing an important tool black feminists needed to describe and get others to understand their reality was a different one, perhaps we should demonize those who stole it and colonized it for use in their political movement.
