    i think theres a few things going on

    one is that I think people do shit on the boss guys the same way, I mean everyone who shits on girlbosses probably also shits on elon right? two is just that the girlbosses are more public because everyone has hated the guy bosses forever, girlsbosses is sort of a fredsher modern trend so it gets louder boos.

      Probably. I guess it might be a matter of numbers, BUT IDK.

      There's also a strong point to be made that co-opting real, liberatory feminism for liberal, "girlboss" feminism that only serves to fuck over working-class women even more (e.g. "MoRe WoMaN DRonE PiLoTs") must be reacted to even more urgently than other reactionary misogyny, because it's like an auto-immune disorder: keeps you from even mounting the struggle. Much like it's more urgent to criticize the Democratic Party because it pretends to be our ally, and co-opting our movement is worse than crushing it, because the former prevents you from ever fighting in the first place, whereas the latter just needs to be overcome with more/better organizing and strategy.
