This Feminist Instagram Page Shares The Most Accurate Posts That Depict The Problems With Our Society (50 Pics)
Our social media feeds often contain much more than just innocent puns and juicy innuendo. If we keep our eyes open, every now and then, we can notice important social topics popping up alongside funny relatable TikToks and mind-bending Twitter threads.
Even more so if we follow accounts that are consciously trying to make statements and spark discussions. Like the Instagram page 'Nasty Feminism.'
Calling itself a "leftist activism-based" online project, it unapologetically shares hot takes on a wide variety of issues, ranging from racism to migration and everything in between. Here are a few of their most popular posts.

According to a 2020 Pew Research Center survey about gender equality, many of the values of the feminist movement have been accepted across the political spectrum in the United States, even among Americans who don't personally identify as feminists.
For instance, a majority of Democrats and Republicans say it is very important for women to have equal rights with men. Similarly, majorities in both partisan coalitions support adding the Equal Rights Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
But feminists are much more likely than non-feminists to say the country has not gone far enough when it comes to giving women equal rights with men (74% vs. 39%). Feminists are also more likely to say the bigger problem is people not seeing discrimination against women where it really does exist, rather than people seeing discrimination against women where it really does not exist (81% of adults who identify as feminists say not seeing discrimination is the bigger problem, compared with 53% of non-feminists).
These and other forms of video surveillance are sometimes the ONLY evidence and there are still attempts to suppress it.
The researchers think these differences can be somewhat explained by partisanship: feminists are far more likely than non-feminists to identify with or lean toward the Democratic Party.
Overall, Democrats and those who lean Democratic are more likely than Republicans and Republican leaners to say gender equality is very important, and they are more than twice as likely to say the country has not gone far enough in giving women equal rights (76% vs. 33%). And while most Democrats (85%) say the bigger problem is people not seeing discrimination against women where it really does exist, a much smaller share of Republicans (46%) say the same.
As all movements do, feminism has evolved greatly since its beginning in the 19th century. Another 2020 Pew Research Center survey found that overall, the public feels the feminist movement has contributed to the advancement of women's rights in the U.S.: 22% say it's done a great deal and 48% say it’s done a fair amount.
But 43% of adults who say feminism describes them very or somewhat well also say the movement is polarizing, and 45% would not describe it as inclusive.
Note to all the BP users who lump millionaires in with billionaires.
However, Cynthia de las Fuentes, Ph.D., past-president of American Psychological Association's Div. 35 (Society for the Psychology of Women), thinks such negative perceptions derive from media distortion-not the movement's mission of equality for the sexes at work and at home.
She also believes that many simply don't realize that equality has yet to be achieved.
"A lot of young people think that women's rights have already been accomplished," said de las Fuentes, an associate professor at San Antonio-based Our Lady of the Lake University. "We've got Title IX; we've got laws against gender discrimination. But they don't realize there are still so many forces against women's rights, like reproductive rights and pay equity. We still have 73 cents on the dollar a man earns."
Luckily, as the popularity of this Instagram shows, people appreciate the reminders.
Not matter what happens to this woman, she'll be able to look at herself in the mirror, because she has retained her humanity. Can those seeking to jail her say the same?
Better screening to become a police officer??? IDK but too many are starting to look like they have joined a club/cult that hunt humans
Yeah, I see those arguments a lot. Things like "He did have a counterfeit $20 bill!". AND THAT MEANS HE DESERVES TO DIE? Since when is there a death penalty on counterfeit bills? Or just on having priors? Or on sleeping in your bed? Even if someone is a real criminal, there is still a) no death penalty on their crime or b) a police is not a judge, jury or executioner and can't kill someone even if there's a death penalty on the crime.
A "friend" of mine calls it "Barbie goes to College". She has never seen it and just thinks it must be stupid. It's a wonderful movie
That is how politics should work but sad that it takes an external agency to do what our government should have the money to do.
And this is Serena Williams, a world-famous wealthy tennis player, ffs. Good luck if you're just an average woman or much worse, when you are actually poor and a minority on top of that.
And that was awesome, since I live in Tulsa. I could literally see the empty arena as Trump and his representatives were on TV lying and saying it was full.
It actually angers a lot of people. But gender reveal parties are not brought on by politics.
How is buying a turkey at the grocery, a turkey that was slaughtered, any different?
And eventually people will be able to say "All these African countries have been independent for longer than they were British colonies." Isn't the concept of time wonderful.
This was the first BP article that actually made me gag and retch. Not because of the posts themselves, but because of the number of comments that just ooze toxicity and hate... Neither racism nor sexism are a right to be constitutionally defended.
They're everywhere. I advise everyone to keep reporting them. It takes Bored Panda quite a while to get rid of them.
Load More Replies...At this moment the title of this post is "Nasty Feminism" but this title is completely misleading.
I thought that to, but it is shared by the account "nasty feminists", so they are just posting their source.
