Description
I've been reading the Bitch Planet comic (seriously look it up it's great). In that, a future society ruled by the patriarchal, racist and otherwise awful Council of Fathers exiles Non-Compliants (women and the occasional man not conformist enough) to the titular Bitch Planet penal colony. Among the offenses cited for some characters is "Gender Terrorism," which inspired me to make this infobox for feminist freedom fighters in SPACE!-----
Suffering, also known as the Neo-Suffragettes, are a feminist militant group that commands the allegiance of at least 30 battlecruisers and as many colonies in the Sol Outer Belt. Formed shortly after the ascension of the Council of Fathers to power in the Inner Belt, Suffering has waged a war of liberation for the sexes according to the principles of irregular warfare, most notably with their assassination of Father Taylor at the 2140 Megaton Games.

Terrorism with motives fueled by gender relations, I assume.

More "People that have come to be a little overzealous in fighting sexists due to 50 years of a sexist dictatorship". They're not misandrists or anything, and don't have very complex political views beyond killing the sexism they can see.

In the Chinese sense of the word, perhaps.

Granted, if they win it's probably for the same reason some socialists cheered for the Bolsheviks...

They'll probably be subsumed into more mainstream resistance groups long before then.

The problem with galactic settings is that 30 battlecruisers is, at best, a system occupation fleet...

This isn't a galactic setting. We can barely make it to Alpha Centauri. OTOH, we can build artificial planetoids, so a lot of firepower is needed to get anywhere in war.

Much like Machinekng's universe, Bitch Planet takes place only a few years down a road of bad decisions.
