Some people are allergic to fools. When they see others being treated poorly, or ridiculous statements being thrown around, or insults served without shame, they feel an urge to stand up and remind everyone that this world is a place for justice.
And if you've been an avid user on social media like most of us, you know how much nonsense is spilled there every day. Luckily, a fair share of people don’t miss their chance to share a social justice take publicly, because every illuminating, educating, and clarifying post helps.
And this Facebook page known as “Feminist Info” is a great place for putting a spotlight on the issues that matter but don't get talked about enough. This also means that the page has a wonderful collection of social justice takes spotted online, and below we selected some of the best examples.

I want to sell t-shirts that read: "I am more than a uterus!" but I'm sure the incels would burn my house down or something.
There's a scary rash of people these days who believe it's politically cool to not believe in science in general
I would hope my daughter would be the a** ole. Must remember to teach her to be more a** holeish
Wanting to do ballet, doesn't make your son gay. Wanting to be a cheerleader, doesn't make your son gay. Wanting to do performing arts, doesn't make your son gay. The only thing that makes your son gay is their attraction to men, something that neither they or anyone else can control.
Our healthcare is a mess, still better than the US but needs to be more socialised now that the government can afford it
@Miven's post... I think this is a valid question and didn't deserve all the downvotes. People on here need to realize that sometimes sarcasm does not come through in writing - especially if English is not their primary language. Maybe just nicely explain instead of getting their account suspended with downvotes.
Hi. I also never had an abortion, but I support it. We need to have a choice
No matter how much everyone recycles, corporations will always produce the most pollution
The issue is more that somehow a lot of the people who say that "happens to men too" - don't seem to actually do anything about it except mentioning that to a woman when the issue is raised. They are usually the first to ridicule other men who try to talk about the issue. In other words - if the only reason you mention that it happens to men is just to try and silence women - you're still a !@$#!@
Billionaires who abuse the power their wealth gives them deserve to go to Hades, the sooner the better.
If you need this explained to you: Less than 1% of all known types of bacteria will make you ill, yet we still use bacteria as a "dirty" word. That is because the 1% can seriously mess you up so it's better to be careful and try to protect yourself against them.
Let's be honest, consent is the low bar. Enthusiastic consent is what should be taught.
My mother at 19 in a way was convinced to keep me and my childhood was horrible. Don't force people who aren't ready for kids to have them.
Exactly. And I do so too, to correct the mistakes of my parents' generation.
Just made an rbg baby blanket for upcoming daughter. Husband thinks I'm nuts but I mean just look at like half this list
Bet he thinks it'd be a privilege if we got free pads and tampons too.
You forgot to add “ and always willing to please you”. We’re not, for those of you who don’t get it—-just like you are not always willing to please us (and I mean please by our definition, not yours).
That's why it's called pro CHOICE. Because it's up to the woman what she does with her body!
The 'fight or flight' response is well known, but psychologists say it should be "fight, flight or freeze".
The 40-hour work week was established **as the maximum**, not the minimum.
Because we've been brainwashed to think our existence is not of value if we aren't killing ourselves working the entire time. Convinced by politicians and corporations that it's supposed to be like this. All the while they live it up wanting for nothing and doing whatever they want. Constantly telling us that it's not possible for us to live even a decent comfortable life.
It's more that the rich didn't own the government in the way they do now
Too many parents keep having kids counting on the older ones to help. Yet if that 16yo decided to have a kid of their own, those same parents would flip. If they aren't ready for their own kid, they shouldn't be parenting yours.
Yes! *I* like to have a nice body that can do things, like run, dance, hike. For me.
you wanna hear something truly heartbreaking? I am a heavy woman, and honest to God, the only time I've EVER been loudly, verbally assaulted in public by someone else for my weight, it was another woman. Absolutely ridiculous. Soon as women start turning on each other this way, then that means all the chauvinistic, Patriarchy-loving a-holes have won. That, plus what's going on right now with Roe v. Wade overturning, it's a rough time to be a woman....
Because of a fee delinquent and violent men the rest of us have been painted with the same brush. But as long it keeps women safe they can paint me with any brush they want. Their safety comes first.
Some really interesting points here; also it's fascinating to see how times have changed since I was younger ie change to law in UK regarding sexual consent in marriage and women and periods. But also the changes in abortion rights in America
Growing up looking more like a girl than a boy in the naughty 80s brought me perspectives on both sides. Progress have definitely happened over the past 4 decades, this I'm sure just by observation. It's also true some has regressed like the US and because of political use of religion as propaganda. At this stage, I can only see these progress stopping if people start being partisan or absolutely binary about things. It's never us vs them. It's always about finding a middle ground.
