Lots of female characters are criticized unfairly, yes. Misogyny often dresses itself up as feminist critique.

Is the solution to just ignore the fact that many female characters are lazily written and given way less than their due by the narrative? Absolutely not. It's a "lazy writing issue", yes, but it's also 100% a feminist issue. Writers get "lazy" when they create and write for female characters on a level that surpasses statistically significant. Women in fiction are ignored, robbed of their agency, caricatured and reduced to plot devices by their own creators because they are women. If you don't think that's a feminist issue, I have to wonder what you think does qualify.
