Relevant: this fucking book I found on Amazon today.
> MRA (Men's Rights Activist) - Noun - Ehm-ARRR!-Aye: These are men and women that work toward alleviating over-conviction of males, men's custody rights, raising male sexual assault awareness, etc. These aren't anti-feminists, or red-pillers, or channers.
Any definition of the modern men's right's movement that puts a specific caveat of "these aren't anti-feminists" is really, really bad. At the very least, highly inaccurate to reality.
MRAs are not "all people who advocate for men." They're a specific ideology of advocating for men, consisting of places like /r/mensrights, websites like A Voice for Men, and a good chunk of much worse places that don't really need to be mentioned. Anti-feminism is quite literally a tenant of the MRA movement, quite possibly the single most unifying belief among their constituency. Of course, this predates the Internet, but real-life MRA organizations are few and far between. Of the few MRA political parties out there, they tend to be, uncoincidentally, antifeminist (ex). Or you can read the guy from AVfM who started his own political party. Note the URL, particularly feminism/government-tyranny. This is the same guy who wrote this book.
This isn't to say that there aren't pro-feminist MRAs, because given how many people are involved, there could be at least a couple. But the dominant frame of the movement is a reaction to feminism gone too far.
The book is now an amazon editor's pick for the "best books of the month".
