Agreed! This treachery entered in the late 1970s, and has never stopped. I believe it arose because some feminists were just not willing to challenge men on their embedded sexual systems. This was going too far. But many of these critics did so silently, and simply continued with their feminist work, which did not include mention of porn or prostitution. But to others it was an all-out dirty war, with no manner of attack being too vicious and since many were artsy media darlings they got way more coverage than did the targets of their attack... and they received full support from the ACLU and the LGB coalition.

Second wave libfems were still radical enough to pull for changes, while current liberal feminists are not even feminists and they are defending men, working for trans laws, not asking for any changes for women, saying that women already living fine and only minor things can be adressed through social means, without changing laws or anything. So those neo-libfems are not even feminists at all, as my friend loves to say: "their 'feminism is for everyone' - is just some twisted form of communism and has nothing to do with women".
