Our social media feeds often contain much more than just innocent puns and juicy innuendo. If we keep our eyes open, every now and then, we can notice important social topics popping up alongside funny relatable TikToks and mind-bending Twitter threads.

Even more so if we follow accounts that are consciously trying to make statements and spark discussions. Like the Instagram page 'Nasty Feminism.'

Calling itself a "leftist activism-based" online project, it unapologetically shares hot takes on a wide variety of issues, ranging from racism to migration and everything in between. Here are a few of their most popular posts.

Yah, I'm struggling to understand that too. Very much. And many of these are considering bleach injection or horse deworming medication. I guess this will remain the biggest mystery for me.

According to a 2020 Pew Research Center survey about gender equality, many of the values of the feminist movement have been accepted across the political spectrum in the United States, even among Americans who don't personally identify as feminists.

For instance, a majority of Democrats and Republicans say it is very important for women to have equal rights with men. Similarly, majorities in both partisan coalitions support adding the Equal Rights Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

But feminists are much more likely than non-feminists to say the country has not gone far enough when it comes to giving women equal rights with men (74% vs. 39%). Feminists are also more likely to say the bigger problem is people not seeing discrimination against women where it really does exist, rather than people seeing discrimination against women where it really does not exist (81% of adults who identify as feminists say not seeing discrimination is the bigger problem, compared with 53% of non-feminists).

These and other forms of video surveillance are sometimes the ONLY evidence and there are still attempts to suppress it.

The researchers think these differences can be somewhat explained by partisanship: feminists are far more likely than non-feminists to identify with or lean toward the Democratic Party.

Overall, Democrats and those who lean Democratic are more likely than Republicans and Republican leaners to say gender equality is very important, and they are more than twice as likely to say the country has not gone far enough in giving women equal rights (76% vs. 33%). And while most Democrats (85%) say the bigger problem is people not seeing discrimination against women where it really does exist, a much smaller share of Republicans (46%) say the same.

As all movements do, feminism has evolved greatly since its beginning in the 19th century. Another 2020 Pew Research Center survey found that overall, the public feels the feminist movement has contributed to the advancement of women's rights in the U.S.: 22% say it's done a great deal and 48% say it’s done a fair amount.

But 43% of adults who say feminism describes them very or somewhat well also say the movement is polarizing, and 45% would not describe it as inclusive.

However, Cynthia de las Fuentes, Ph.D., past-president of American Psychological Association's Div. 35 (Society for the Psychology of Women), thinks such negative perceptions derive from media distortion-not the movement's mission of equality for the sexes at work and at home.

She also believes that many simply don't realize that equality has yet to be achieved.

"A lot of young people think that women's rights have already been accomplished," said de las Fuentes, an associate professor at San Antonio-based Our Lady of the Lake University. "We've got Title IX; we've got laws against gender discrimination. But they don't realize there are still so many forces against women's rights, like reproductive rights and pay equity. We still have 73 cents on the dollar a man earns."

Luckily, as the popularity of this Instagram shows, people appreciate the reminders.

Not matter what happens to this woman, she'll be able to look at herself in the mirror, because she has retained her humanity. Can those seeking to jail her say the same?

Yeah, I see those arguments a lot. Things like "He did have a counterfeit $20 bill!". AND THAT MEANS HE DESERVES TO DIE? Since when is there a death penalty on counterfeit bills? Or just on having priors? Or on sleeping in your bed? Even if someone is a real criminal, there is still a) no death penalty on their crime or b) a police is not a judge, jury or executioner and can't kill someone even if there's a death penalty on the crime.

If you live in crazy land USA why would you call the cops on someone who doesn't seem dangerous or having a weapon? You know it would get him in trouble. Very sad, RIP Elijah.

I once considered calling for help for someone behaving erratically. The neighbour, who had to put up with their behaviour, kindly persuaded me not to do it. While I've seen violent people handled well, I was hesitant to risk someone's life.

Oh my god, I remember this. I cried reading that article, and I'm still tearing up. Literally the excuse for murdering someone so completely non-violent is "oh he was on drugs." B***h, most of us are on drugs - you still don't get to murder people. ETA: Spoiler alert; there's no proof he was on drugs, but there is recorded evidence of officers saying that they'd choked him unconscious at least once.

That's my question exactly. The person calling had to have thought he was some kind of threat or they wouldn't have called. Even if they thought he might rob some houses later that would still count as dangerous wouldn't it?

This is f*****g sick. I hate this s**t. My cousin is mixed (half white and black) and he is scared shitless of cops. No one should be afraid of them. They are supposed to protect us not kill us. BLM. Period. These cops committed murder across the USA. The deserve the death penalty just like you would had a normal person.

why TF do you white people call the cops on everything like the slightest discomfort in your peripheral . you people do realize in 40 years or so you are going to be a minority across the world, i hope our people won't be as cruel as you are. OMG this racism s**t has been going bon for hundreds of years but you have never stopped to realize all the other minorities have come a long way since 500 years ago and this s**t will hurt you in the end.

I don't understand why people don't get into trouble anymore for calling without a good reason. I remember in the late 90s early 2000s there was an ad campaign telling kids they'd get in trouble for calling without an actual emergency. That seems to be completely forgotten.

HOLY FÚCK. I have never even heard of this! And they wonder why everyone hates cops. I went to Starbucks just now and I saw they had a sign out front that said “coffee with a cop” and I so badly wanted to kick it over. Since I know someone will stop caring about the story to cry about the coffee shop of choice not tasting good, I got a matcha there, not a coffee.

School boy for me was fairly bland. School girl for me was a mix of normal and sexualized. And as a straight woman, I'm not in the habit of searching for sexualized females of any kind, so this is built into the search engine, not me.

The most disgusting thing about all of these things is that women need to dress in a particular way in order to avoid being sexualised. How about men start seeing women as people rather than objects?
