    No one wants to purge the world of white males and anyone who really believes that they do has a world view so separated from reality that they are clearly not susceptible to rational argument. For one thing they are seeing 'feminists' as people without roots, without fathers, brothers or husbands (many of whom, in the nature of things, will be white males...) but as 'other' - witches and demons perhaps.

    Pull yourselves together, stop being scared, and understand that gender equality carries enormous benefits for both sexes, and understand that these 'feminists' you have invented do not exist.

    To disempower men and to utterly destroy white males.

    Pretty much women can have it all do anything they want but they want men to pay for it all and take all the responsibilities -_-

    The purpose of feminism like all special interests is promote what is most advantageous for their constituents.

    Feminism has lobbied for and own many policies advantaging women and disadvantaging men such as AA for women, women owned business advantages, laws that discriminate against males in education, and advantages for women in health care.

    Certainly some feminists have written that men should be exterminated or locked up. Examples being the SCUM Manifesto or Julie Bindel's article about how men should be put in camps, but these are for the most part feminist fantasy or thoughts of a few. They will never become reality.

    "What's the purpose of modern feminism? What's the goal? When will feminists stop wanting to purge the world of white males?"

    Feminism is what feminism does, and not necessarily what it says it does, or what the dictionary says. Having said this, we can see that in our post equal Rights first world, feminism is NOT the lobby for equal Rights for women where that has already been obtained. So whenever feminists speak about gender equality, clearly they are not speaking about equal Rights alone. That simple equality is no longer good enough for feminists in our post equal Rights first world.

    What is mostly evident by way of feminists assertions and actions is that feminism has become a social change movement that is aligned with the Neo-Left and it's radical cultural M@rxist social change agenda. However, feminism still uses the old, outdated ideas of female oppression from over a century ago to hide behind women as fodder for any and all repercussions that result from their man-hating agenda. This usually has the effect of aligning women to their cause as feminists are good at directing feminist inspired hate to be against women rather than themselves (feminists). Many people are catching on to this canard though, and more and more, feminists are being seen as the men AND women haters that they actually are.

    To wit. MOST people are on board with equality. FEW are on board with modern day feminism.

    Obviously wanting reproductive freedom, paid parental leave and affordable childcare means I want to purge the world of white men. Pretty sure no white men have kids and no kids turn into white men. Also, I’m fairly sure no man has ever wanted a woman to have an abortion.

    Nice logical and calm analysis of the situation. It’s everything I would expect.
