Comment on Few adult men are killed by adult women.
Tartas1995@discuss.tchncs.de 1 month agoThe worst part… it works. E.g. on me, and i know. It is difficult to see these kind of posts, which are clearly misandry, and then hear people deny the trend for misandry, especially online.
OBVIOUSLY there is a shit tonne of misogyny, especially online and that is a big problem. But we shouldn’t ignore the trend to misandry. It is not a competition and we fight against misogyny better if we fight sexism in general, I believe.
But the posts make me feel like a shocking amount of people are not against sexism but just misogyny. How am I supposed to feel like those are not my enemy when I am opposed to sexism?
Then I spend time with the people that I love and I am good again but… it is fucking poison.

This post still isn’t at bad as a roofie.

A roofie isn’t as bad as the bombing of schoolchildren. We can start working on roofing until we’ve solved the warcrime problem.

How can we not work on both at the same time again?

What counts as “solved”? What are the goalposts, and who gets to judge those?

Did you even read the comment you replied to?

We can only ever work on one issue at once
Grail@multiverse.soulism.net 1 month ago
That’s usually not true.
But with this specific issue, the most efficient solution is to help women. Women are being mean to the man community because the man community is harming women. There’s no solution that will get women to be nicer to your community more efficiently than getting your community to be nicer to women.

I disagree, because ypur suggestion is treating a symptom. The cause-- the structures and incentives causing the divine in the first place-- would remain, and you will never resolve all the symptoms until the cause is resolved. Trying to resolve every symptom first would result in a neverending battle.

Why is roofying bad? She won’t remember it, and that’s good enough for women when they circumcise their infant boys.
Grail@multiverse.soulism.net 1 month ago
Circumcision is actually horrible. My partner is still really sad it was circumcised even after all those years.
Circumcision doesn’t just affect men. People of all genders are circumcised and suffer for it. So please don’t make light of circumcision.

Honestly you probably shouldn’t start a “Who can make the most braindead stupid argument” competition if you can’t handle losing, Grail.

I was circumcised so I’m allowed to like how the chinese can throw cats at their enemies.
