More interesting is how the campaign stopped.
They were issuing feathers to all men of all ages indiscriminately.
It was inevitable that they'd give a feather to a veteran in a state of catatonic shell shock. They didn't care about how bad that looked, they got away with it.
Then they gave feathers to veterans with limbs missing, disabled for life, can barely function anymore. They didn't care how bad that looked, they got away with it.
Then they gave feathers to factory workers over the age of 40, already occupied in the war effort. They didn't care how bad and stupid they looked, they got away with it.
Then they gave feathers to active duty soldiers and officers on temporary leave and medical leave. They got the absolute shit beaten out of them in public, on the streets, in pubs. They felt how fucking bad they looked right there.
But that's not why they quit. Nobody stopped the fights. Nobody intervened to save them. To the contrary, they joined the fight against the women.
The white feather movement ended as soon as it was perceived that the masses were violently repulsed by it and would rather kill the women than stop the fight.
