"Women are inherently always oppressed victims, especially in first world privileged communities unless they're EVIL BISEXUAL OR STRAIGHT BITCHES WHO ARE COLLABORATING WITH MEN WHO WANT TO OPPRESS ME"

"All men bad even from birth and despite different cultural and individual upbringings"

"To be pro-feminist you need to be vegan because eating chicken eggs is akin to rape"

"If men/trans are trying to force me to be straight that's actually bisexual women's fault"

"Women who aren't radical feminists are evil misogynist harpies"

"Intersex people are either liars or oppressors who just want to steal sports/healthcare/bathrooms from women"

"Intersex women are actually men because I said so, intersex men with two X chromosomes aren't women tho because my logic isn't consistent"

"Communism is good and feminist"

Are all pretty bad takes I want nothing to do with. Radical feminism has a handful of good ideas (gender is bad, porn should be banned, "sex workers" are victims and not something to strive for) but it's mixed in with a fuckton of garbage, you could say the same about TRAs anyway.

All of this has nothing to do with second wave feminism and majority of radical feminism. Most of the things you have mentioned is liberal feminism, especially communism and intersex parts.

Vegan radical feminism is in interesting position. Those people aren't very welcomed even on Ovarit, but not thrown away either. They are funny, thought, and they are often saying about "we can sacrifice women to save animals" - interesting way to "save women" by sacrificing them.

Ah yes, the whole "they aren't TRUE X" argument. GenderCritical would disagree. And no. It's not liberal feminism. Liberal feminism doesn't push for "marxist womyn only society" (wtf) or say that intersex women are just as bad as trans taking from women's sports and are just men in disguise. These are things I see only on radfem subs.

Yeah, that's a caricature or maybe what some stupid teen activist spews. There is some serious theoretical work tho that isn't so crude and off putting. Also, I think you're confusing radical feminism with 3rd wave liberal feminism.
