Some Muslim feminist women need to know that they demonize themselves by broadly demonizing Muslim men towards people who are enemies of islam who you take as sisters. The natural conclusion to the general blaming is it coming back to you as to why you even follow such an "evil" religion and engage in such an "evil" society.

They use collective language while referring to the men ("Muslim men" collectively), demonizing them in line with anti Muslim bigotry, and are surprised when they use totalitarian language in demonizing them ("Muslim women" collectively). They suddenly talk about how they need to stay out of your business and how they're oppressing you. And then they say

"Radfems are weird about Muslim women/hijab"; you allowed them to be weird about Islam and Muslim men by affirming their anti-Muslim bigotry. You can't after you talk about people in a collective manner and attack them in the name of justice, and then say to people to not interfere when it comes to you.

The problem is that you don't see that they're enemies of religion and are trying to align with them, taking them on surface value. You like them while they hate Islam and it's adherents. Unfortunately some times you even help attack Islam and it's adherents.

You try to make friends with enemies of Islam and then are surprised when they attack you too. You agree with the enemy's characterization of Islam and then the men and then you're surprised when they turn on you. Are you separate from Islam that you allow them to do this? This is why your voice against anti Muslim bigotry doesn't hold any value because one moment you're reinforcing it and the other moment you're speaking against it. You confirm all of their anti-Muslim caricatures and then are surprised when they then do it to you as well. By confirming their bigotry you are also confirming it against yourself. They attack men because their enemies are Muslim men, Hezbollah, Iran, so they need to help promote bigotry against them to justify their aggression. Confronting anti Muslim bigots, enemies of Islam also means defending men of ummah, and men are being attacked. Don't help them in doing that. Because you'll also be doing it against yourself. You are not separate from the Islamic world, men, women, children, are all part of it. They're enemies of Islam as a whole.

Like opposing generalizing is what we have been doing to confront anti-Muslim bigotry, that regular Muslims aren't responsible for the action of Wahhabis, what then prevents you from extending it back to your own people, why do you do it to your own people. Your own demonization comes with it.

Yes there are vile men but be careful in how you approach it. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) said

“Sometimes a person is a victim of oppression and he curses till the time he himself becomes the oppressor.” and Whoever helps wrongdoing against a Muslim isn't a Muslim. Twitter culture promotes hive mentality and piling on.
