Neither. I'm saying the actual wave of feminism is not helping the cause, because the issues feminism first set out to combat actually still exist. The issue i have is with overboarding "correctness" and everyone feeling butt hurt when they hear something they don't like. You don't agree with my point? Fine, that's absolutely okay. But verbally lynching me for not agree with my point (even if my point may be factually wrong) is hurting the cause, because it alienates those people even further and basically cements their view of you. But things are not stopping at verbal, because lot's of "feminists"/"activists" resort to physical stuff...destroying property, destroying lives, etc. Feminists up until the fourth wave protested, they fought rightfully for their rights to be equal and except in some edge cases, they won.

Wishes feminists would protest in a more palatable way, preferably one they never hear about or are inconvenienced by
Those NASTY FEMINISTS are DESTROYING LIVES
Compares being told they are wrong to literally being executed by a racist mob

Cuz you should be the center of attention and everyone must tone police themselvs around you to make it all about your comfort.

Keep lecturing other people about feeling ‘butthurt’ while you melt away you precious snowflake.
