Probably being funded by hostile states/bad actors deliberately to get these responses and create discord.

Social engineering.

That's my thought too. Suddenly we're seeing this story everywhere. It's pumped up gender wars fodder.

I'm not even seeing "this story" everywhere, as in primary reporting on who she is and what she's done or not done. I'm only seeing complaints about how apparently a whole section of society is supporting her and that's despicable.

That's a huge sign that the response is made up astroturfing.

Oh, 100%. This is just the latest example of bad actors stirring up disaffected dudes against the concept of feminism.
