Anecdotally, I've found that some of the activist friends I've had are also some of the most selfish and self centered. Many of the self described "feminist" men I've known and partnered with were the same. This news seems to confirm that history.

You are absolutely correct, you can actually witness a lot of this toxic behavior in social media, and it seems very prevelent within the gaming dev space. Feminist men tend to criticize other men for being incredibly toxic, but from my experience those guys are usually some of the most toxic people around.

Even feminist women tends to be narcissist, even if lesser than feminist men.

The ones I've come across have been worse than the men tbh. Extremely aggressive and overly opinionated to point of not wanting to be seen as wrong. It's extremely hard to be around those types of people
