Its misandrists confusing their views for feminism, calling their views feminism, being recognised by others as misandrists who call themselves feminists, and other non-misandrist feminists flat out refusing to accept that there are many feminists who are misandrists. "Those aren't real feminists tho" is nothing more than a head planted firmly in the sand.
You CANNOT untangle the two at this point, it's an impossible task. The real meaning of feminism was an essential part of the 20th century, the 21st century needs to develop a more modern, nuanced and inclusive drive for equality that separates itself from that or it will simply fail.
Or doggedly cling to the current rhetoric and continue to engage in confused, scrappy skirmishes forever I guess, because the mantras must be protected at all costs. That's bound to result in some really positive outcomes.
