I have been lurking on Chinese social media because I’m sort of a native Chinese speaker. In China’s leftist scene, a lot of the “patriot”, anti-imperialist, pro-CPC folks are extremely anti-feminist, anti-LGBT, racist, xenophobic, anti-semitic, and islamophobic.
Of course CPC itself doesn’t slightly take those stances. However I’m worried if it grows out of control it might be a problem in the future, as some of those leftist influencers have millions of social media followers.
Keep in mind a lot of those are just anti American liberal interventionism Goes for a lot of the issues you mentioned, but for example a lot of the “pro-feminism” voices on social media are literally funded by American NGOs for regime change. They could care less about women and equality, in fact they love to see them all Chinese women die horribly if they bring down the communist government with them, and another war criminal in the US will tell Americans that it was worth it.
If you lurk more you will see how ridiculous the social media “feminists” often are, how they fall completely silent if not sabotage feminist matters that would put communist China in a good light, how the same groups again and again aligns with American imperialist positions when it has nothing to do with feminism (for example, being rabidly pro-Ukraine, advocating that covid is just a harmless flu).
Of course when such people parade around social media with a feminist banner, you will see people respond by stomping it to the ground with boos and widespread opposition. Nothing wrong with being “anti-feminist” when the “feminist” in question has little to do with things like women’s equality and more about sowing discord, and thus the loud opposition to it says little about people being against women’s equality and more about against sowing discord.
I guess the issue there would be throwing the baby out with the bathwater. Which I would believe would be the long-game planned by said American imperialists. They hope to get people across the world to associate social progressivism with imperialism which makes it easier to convert them to fascism and makes Western liberals say, “See, see, these people aren’t leftists they’re bigots!”
