You are right - while suffragettes could be quite violent, the violence was political and (as far as I can tell) misandry didn't hit hard until Second Wave Feminism, in the 60s-80s. But hit hard it did, and the effects reverberate today. The point is, toxic hatred for the "other side" is a distasteful but not uncommon feature of movements in a particular stage of their existence. It doesn't invalidate their complaints.
