  That’s like 4 people, man, come on.

  Yeah, it’s 4 people. What’s your point?

  what are the racial differences that cannot be explained by culture that result in some ethnicities being more dangerous than others?

  Great question. As a latino I have dark skin and brown hair and am therefore better at hiding in the shadows. It’s easier for someone to trip with me in the dark if I’m passed out drunk on the floor, possibly causing innocent people injury. This is a serious risk to society and we should be considered dangerous, especially in situations that involve alcohol.

  Tomen have to be protected by men FROM other men

  Yes, that’s what men are for. We protect from the other -worse- men and whatever it is their women are telling them they need to do and they’ll fucking blindly do it cause yes we’re that dumb.

  But also, can we agree we all have to be protected from assholes and ill meaning people, both women and men. Are bad people usually men? Idk maybe. Physical violence-wise, probably, tbh. Are all assholes men though? No, and I can give you at least 4 examples that prove this, but also, the ways that women with bad intentions get what they want is blatantly obvious to anyone who has met one. They get men to do their dirty work for them. Fell free to ask me for a paper or study on this.

  Can’t we just speak of people who do horrible things instead of blanket scapegoating a <demographic>?

  And you might say men created the system and men traumatize other men which causes more men to be violent and compete with other men to hurt more women and men… But the weird thing about causality and attribution is that it isn’t a linear path and the story ends wherever you arbitrarily choose it does.

  Who were these men raised by? Who are more often than not the partners of these horrible men that allow them to commit their atrocities? If us men are all savages that will never have any sense of morality and are doomed to commit one atrocity after another, surely it’s the responsibility of the humans that aren’t monsters to reduce the harm we inevitably cause by existing. And what do women do in the face of this situation? Keep having sex with and producing more men. Thanks a lot, women… Thanks for not only having sex with the parents of the dudes that bullied me in high school, but also literally bringing them to this world and raising them with evil woman influence that brainwashed them into traumatizing me.

  Ok so maybe I went just a little bit overboard but surely you understand my point. Can we not just talk about individuals that do horrible things? Cause if the problem is “men exist”, the solution is easy. Women should just stop having sex with us. No more men. Problem solved in 1 generation. If you wanna be faster you could do like the 4 ladies I linked though.

  Wow, you got here? I’m surprised… and flattered tbh. thanks for reading and feel free to somehow imply me having a penis reduces my value as a human being.

  For real, though. I’m sorry for all the horrible men. And sure, I might be am an idiot and have opinions you find repulsive, but I know I’m not the only one genuinely doing the best I can to make the world nicer.

  I used questions to illustrate my point. My point was an invitation to reevaluate repeating a discourse that’s harmful to society. Not just men.

  If you’d like me to be more explicit about the statement I’m suggesting or what I actually believe, I’m more than glad to rephrase and elaborate.

  I believe doing blanket attributions of <horrendous acts> to any <members of a demographic> is tribalistic hate speech regardless of how statistically likely the demographic is to commit them.

  Humans are more than the demographics they belong to and we all have the ability to choose our own paths no matter where we come from or how we were born. Reducing an entire population to <the ones that commit the atrocities> is not part of the problem, it is the problem.

  No different than racism, elitism, classism or sexual discrimination. It’s just plain dehumanization, which doesn’t only lower the bar on the collective moral expectations over the group’s members effectively making the horrendous acts more likely, it breeds generalized distrust and erodes empathy in society as a whole.

  When you reduce groups of people, each a human being with their own circumstances and fears and struggles and trauma and feelings to “those ppl that do that horrible thing” you strip the individuals of the group you might actually meet and interact with from the benefit of doubt, the possibility of being different from what you attribute and perpetuate the very dynamic you resent them for.

  I feel like the questions were a more elegant (and succinct) approach, but to each their own.

  Sure. No problem.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Uber is letting women avoid male drivers and riders in the US⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m a guy. I was harassed by a female uber driver once (I wrote about it here) and I also…

  [sexual coersion trigger warning]

  I was raped by a women while intoxicated a few years ago. It didn’t traumatize me heavily, but I definitely was raped. Would you like to hear about it?

  I usually have positive interactions with women and appreciate the ones in my life, but just cause these things are rare doesn’t mean they don’t happen.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Uber is letting women avoid male drivers and riders in the US⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t find this problematic, but umm… I’m just going to leave this here. And while I’m here, why not this… Oh, and this. And umm… this.

  Men are statistically way more likely to commit violent and sexual crimes than women (i’m guessing but p sure), sure but um… Would you say “It ain’t white people who are casually killing each other’s gang members”? Gang violence is statistically more likely for people of some races… But would you say that’s a fair statement? And how is it different from your statement?

  What is true, specifically?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Uber is letting women avoid male drivers and riders in the US⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I was once harassed pretty horribly by a lady driver.

  Long story...

  As soon as I got in the car, she handed me her cell phone and told me to put my favorite song on (wtf), not taking no for an answer and not accepting her phone back. While I eventually realized I couldn’t hand her back her phone without a song on, I started looking through Spotify. She started asking very personal and increasingly more intimate questions. The tone was very authoritative too. It felt like she was demanding me to answer. At first I just gave non answers to, hinting discomfort and lack of interest, but then had to clearly and plainly tell her her questions were making me uncomfortable. She laughed it off, asked why I felt that way and then kept asking things that were completely inappropriate, very bluntly. It was an extremely intense conversation and I felt like I was being interrogated as some kind of weird power trip thing. Eventually I stopped answering (sometimes I forget conversations are optional), kept quiet for a few questions and I asked some small talk things just to take the focus off my intimate life. I asked how her day had been, how long she Ubered for and what was going on in her life. Pot twist: Turns out she had just been dumped from the only relationship she had in her life, which had lasted about 8 years. She was basically having a mental breakdown and trying to talk her way out of it in the worst possible way. She may have also been neurodivergent. I told her about a breakup I had that was horrible and how I eventually bounced back. We then talked about life and what mattered to us. Ended up shaking hands and wishing each other well when she dropped me off. Does this prove anything? No. Is it good that people can choose the gender of their driver? Sure, I guess. What was the point of my story? Erm… Is there a point? i guess maybe sometimes creepiness is just a sensitive person going through some shit? I just wanted to share tbh. She did harass the shit out of me, despite me never feeling in physical danger next to her (which of course would have made the dynamic completely different), but idk she was also a nice person. Honestly, there’s no point to my story and I’m not trying to prove anything. I’ve just never talked about this, your comment just brought the memory back and I felt like writing it out. If you got here, thanks for reading and I’m truly sorry for all the ways you suffer and face terrifying situations I am unable to understand. I should get some sleep. Have a good one.

  Well yeah it’s based on feelings and it definitely just mindlessly repeating the extremely popular male bashing perspective the majority of fediverse users blindly accepts as dogma, but it’s also undeniably true. A very large number of us are creeps. If you’d like to get technical, we can pull sexual crimes stats of men vs females and see which number is larger… But, do we really have to?

  And it’s not that we’re inherently evil or perverse by nature. It’s that, more often than not, in one on one interactions we are the ones with the potential ability to physically dominate and coerce the human of the other sex. Every once in a while a man will delude himself, snap, explode or give in to whatever dark urge was brooding in him and use that ability in some horrible way.

  The probability of an individual of whatever demographic doing something horrible is = (the probability they have the urge to attempt the horrible thing) x (the probability they have the capacity to carry out the horrible thing). It’s really not that complicated.

  And If you think women would never do this if they had, on average, larger body frames, more strength and were brainwashed into seeking validation through dominance from an early age, please allow me to introduce you to the fascinating matriarchal pack dynamics of the spotted hyena, where females are larger and stronger than males. Guess which sex is more aggressive and socially dominant?

  It’s not that us men are evil. It’s that on average, we have physical power that more often than not, woman do not. Any form of power has the potential to corrupt, cause it can be used for evil and therefore, every once in a while, given a large enough time frame or population, it will.
