Comment on Why is the manosphere on the rise? UN Women sounds the alarm over online misogyny
barsoap@lemm.ee 2 days agoLol, falsely conflating me telling you not to blame POC and women for late stage capitalism with telling you not to cry is pretty hilarious.
I did what?
What injustice are you facing that generations of women and immigrants haven’t been receiving the whole time?
I’ve been using this thread as an opportunity to talk about a positive example, and that’s the marked increase in male childcare workers in Germany. I pointed out some masculine influencers doing good work. I bemoaned that much “X for women/girls” stuff is half-assed feel-good BS, prone to causing more harm than good (because half-assed, because it’s done for optics instead of the thing itself).
I’ve been constructive. I didn’t lash out and try to put people down for caring about their issues. I didn’t wrap people up in ass-long back and forth threads demanding justification after justification why they care just to find an excuse to pounce, then ride my high horse into the sunset.
Oh, and I also shot the horse of some guy.

Oh I’m sorry I mistook you for someone who was blaming minorities for their woes… You’re just a guy defending him.
If that’s your take on this thread then you’re just as complicit as the rest of these incels.

It’s my take on my own contributions. Note that those didn’t include “defending some guy”, it really was an exhaustive list. How you managed to get that wrong in a post in which you apologised about getting something wrong is something you’ll have to ask your dead horse, I suppose.

An exhaustive list of babying and validating young men who are being radicalized. You aren’t challenging their beliefs, you’re just patting yourself on the back for being tolerant of the intolerable. Which is ironic for someone who seems to be obsessed with an analogy about high horses.
Lol, because you keep beating it with a stick. Try a new analogy never once and a while.
