    not if those generalizations are against men. they’re already privileged by the patriarchy, so it cancels out

    edit: this got a lot more attention than I anticipated so

    1. thanks for the (You)s and lulz
    2. be reminded that the vast majority of leftists disagree with what I said. my talking points shouldn’t be mistaken for and/or held against leftist viewpoints

        Did I saw men are bad? I’m a man, didn’t know I was a misandrist. Didn’t know pointing out that women across the board tend to have it worse than men - we don’t tend to be forcibly impregnated, DV rates are quite a bit smaller, and there aren’t countries where we are cattle.

      Damn, Poe’s Law hittin this comment hard, and I can’t tell from the instance either.

      Edit: oh Jesus, they were serious. Parody truly is dead. At least we get to publicly shame the stupid misandrist.

        Non exaggerated non explicit comments without enough context deserve to be taken seriously. Sadly.

          sadly I have to take a comment about how males have more privileges compared to most other groups seriously

            O shit you were serious?? Thabks for misinterpreting my comment btw. Let me correct that for you.

            sadly I have to take a comment justifying sexist generalizations on men because males have more privileges compared to most other groups seriously.

            It’s not the part about men having more priviledges that people are having issues with, it’s the part that THAT somehow excuses being sexist against men.

              if males get disadvantaged, they’re getting closer to the same level as everyone else, thus increasing egality

                By disadvantaged, do you mean removal of privilege or wanton sexism? Because the latter is the point the others want to clear up.

                The words you use are good, but the context is bad.

      Women are privileged by the patriarchy in some ways too, so I guess misogyny’s back on the menu, right? /s

      Dumb misandrist.

        Are there places so privileged where women have harems of male sex slaves? Is there a country with organized matriarchy?

        calling out that males have privileges, which women and people of the LGBTQQIAAP+ community do not have, is misandry

            Yeah how DARE people make memes! That’s definitely the same as taking away someone’s bodily autonomy!

              I can’t tell whose views you’re trying to parody because that doesn’t align with either half of the discussion.

              Okay.

              Do you think that’s relevant to determining whether or not you’re being misandrist?

              Or are you just defending your misandry by saying people who are attacked less deserve to be attacked?

                I’m not misandrist. I just want everyone to have the closest level of privilegation possible

                  You’re a crab in a bucket, pulling at other crabs to ensure they’re treated poorly because someone else is rather than encouraging others to treat each other well.

                  By pretending, or worse, believing that the best way to a better society is by making things worse for certain groups, you have more in common with misogynists than anyone else.

                  Your attitude is used as ammunition by the far right to convince impressionable people that feminists are inherently hostile and unreasonable, and if women are elevated in society, they will immediately use any gained power to attack men.
