Feminist Outrage on Social Media and other Electronic Media Platforms Post US-Elections: Digital Feminism is the Last Recourse of the Left

Abstract

This research aims to identify the hurdles modern feminist theory has to deal with in terms of its political relevance. The paper attempts to examine how the feminist movement and the political concerns of the left echo in an abyss, failing to build any narrative or discourse. It demonstrates the creation of blurred lines by the manipulation of the feminist movement with regard to political victimization. This study incorporates the framework of power and politics offered by Michel Foucault and the idea of sovereignty by Nietzsche in order to evaluate the harms to the feminist movement has to cater to in the modern context of political paradigm shifts. This paper necessitates the left movement and feminism to utilize digital platforms to radicalize itself in the contemporary period.
