In case you needed more proof that leftists have turned feminism into a joke

A young French activist says intimidation disrupted her studies, yet the very movements preaching sisterhood look the other way
In nanny states, men become state-dependent tradbros whose solution to an inadequate allowance is to pitch a fit, women get infantilized, and kids become insufferable. But what happens when someone dares to step out of line?
Enter Louise Montagnon – a 22-year-old master’s student, right-wing activist, and recent municipal National Rally candidate from Bordeaux, who has been all over  debating the young left-wing activists indulging in synchronized tantrums across France, some burning their schools down to protest the lack of educational space. When a country is sufficiently infantilized, you may as well send young people to fight each other on ideological front lines over problems ginned up mostly by grey-haired men. 
Montagnon is refusing to sing the dominant tune. You are the useful idiots of this movement, she 17-year-old Erwan on television. He made his name by publicly draping himself over left-wing leader Jean-Luc Melenchon and him on the cheek, having already mastered the politician’s mannerisms while explaining why student life sucked at his slum of a Parisian school near Montmartre. The academy a majestic courtyard and a €120 million renovation project. His particular hardship was having to put in full days.
Montagnon’s message was that the kid hadn’t seen much of the working world and might want to compare class timetables with her before declaring himself a victim. Her argument is dangerous to the movement because if one person can manage, then why can’t you? And when that person is a young woman, the reality becomes especially inconvenient for young men.
Which would explain the violent reaction to this young woman’s mere existence. Last year, I had to leave my classes during the year because it was no longer possible for safety reasons, she during a media appearance. When you arrive at university and there are 80 people waiting to kick you out, you are no longer safe. She also explained that during student elections, the library staff wanted her to leave despite what she described as about 200 brainless leftists waiting for her outside.
It has also emerged that back in February, she was reportedly distributing campaign literature when her young female colleague was pushed to the ground and she was thrown up against a wall.
Women’s groups lament the Taliban’s exclusion of girls from education, yet appear conspicuously absent when a young woman in France says that intimidation has interfered with her university life. Women should be able to study and participate in public life without being threatened into submission – but only subject to ideological approval or an adequate score on the most superficial diversity scale, apparently.
Montagnon’s offence is actively denouncing the left-wing status quo, exercising her democratic right to dissent. The very sort of independent thinking that feminism is supposed to celebrate – until the independent thinker backs the wrong party or causes.
She fails the longstanding litmus test to qualify for sisterly support. Feminism has become entangled with identity politics in much of the movement, to the point where a woman on the right can demonstrate intellectual independence, self-determination, and meritocratic qualities, yet still be treated as a threat to the ideological monoculture that became synonymous with the feminist movement ever since it sprang up around left-wing actions in the civil rights era.

Individual initiative is welcome, as long as it doesn’t become an inconvenient example of what can be done without adhering to a left-wing political script. And the collect
