I support the motion that modern feminist movenents should be scaled back, not because gender equality has ceased to be a noble pursuit, but because a movement that pursues liberation, deserves to be questioned for its internal contradictions, shortcomings and implications. And perhaps the first question we ought to ask is this: whose liberation are we talking about, because I believe that modern feminism cannot adequately represent all women
RE

I get why the other side wants to push back on some overheated stuff. Still, scaling back the whole movement feels too broad, because a lot of it is just about basic fairness. I’m not sure how to argue all the details, but my gut says don’t shrink it.

RE

If a movement is messy enough to contain disagreements, does that mean we should shrink the whole thing? My opponent's point about feminism not representing every woman is fair, and internal critique matters. But scaling back doesn't fix that contradiction, it hands the win to the status quo. Modern feminism isn't one institution you can dial down; it's decentralized pressure on pay gaps, violence, and unpaid care. Punishing the whole thing because parts are flawed is backwards. Rebuild the weak parts, don't retreat from the fight.
