Technically, everyone that doesn’t identify as “men”. But it’s done in the abstract, negative space of the message by not saying it. Subtle, but without clarifying things, it’s left open to this interpretation.

It isn’t inclusive of everyone because it is about a specific group. I’m getting ‘all lives matter’ vibes from your comment.

Thanks for clarifying. I’m actually trying to argue the exact opposite of something like “all lives matter”.

If you’re trying to do that, you’re doing terribly.

Do you also complain that gay pride and black history month aren’t inclusive of everyone?
dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Hardly. I added some clarification to my argument.

I don’t see how your argument is anything other than “Memes about men aren’t inclusive. What about everyone else?”
