Morphology

feminazi = feminist + Nazi (semi-transparent) = femin + nazi

Same blended formation as the noun sense: components are clear but the adjective meaning is a metaphorical pejorative, not a predictable literal derivative.

Etymology

Feminazi as an adjective mixes feminist and Nazi, and it labels actions, words, or policies as 'very extreme' or aggressively feminist; because it compares feminism to Nazism, it is a strong insult and is offensive.
