I would imagine that it's nothing but the current political climate of
corporate fascism attacking socialist countries under the guise of
going after terrorism.
Socialistic feminism is being dismantled all right, but it's being
dismantled by corporate feminism, and the women's movement is still
very safe, powerful, and advocated by the Right. This isn't genuine
advocacy for men.
