    lmao you think Democrats aren’t rapists too? Brother they did a fucking holocaust, you think they draw the line at rape? They’re just quieter about it.

    This is absolutely an “all men” problem in terms of the culture men create and rarely speak out against, not literally in terms of each individual man.

      Fair point but you will have to then move the line to “all Americans” instead of “all men”.

      If all men normalized this the comment section would look wildly different.

        Have you seen some of the comment sections on Lemmy?

        We’ve got men musing about how “naturally consensual” 14 year olds are with absolutely no moderation stepping in.

          I have no idea what you are talking about but this sounds like wild interpolation.

            You can pretend like this isn’t a common thing amongst a wide swath of men, but you’re wrong. It’s not just Americans.

            There’s a lot of sexist and misogynistic views that are not only allowed to be kept up on Lemmy, but are highly upvoted and supported by the men here.

            Some men do normalize this and the comment sections do reflect it often.

                I could point out the comments calling a rape victim hot in the womensstuff community if you’d like.

                I just posted an article you might find illuminating. Groups of men collaborating online to masturbate and cum on women in public to humiliate them.

                They use online forums to bolster and lift each other up, encouraging each other to violate women for their own satisfaction and then share with the group.

                  You said on Lemmy. Using an obscure internet forum to push the narrative that all men support it is ridiculous.

                    Again, I could pull the comments about how hot a rape victim is from the womensstuff community if you’d like.

                    I know there’s quite a few users here that I could easily find comments joking about rape and threatening to rape someone. I’ve got some in my own DMs!

                    Or the comments in shitposting about how naturally consensual 14 year olds are.

      When the Democrats are in power, they block the Epstein files. When the Republicans are in power, they block the Epstein files.

        When did dems block the epstein files? They were in open cases so couldn’t be released.

        Maybe voting them out of power was a dumb decision

                So you want them to allow releasing evidence from ongoing cases? Or do you want them to just do it selectively? Aka biased?

                  Epstein’s case was covered up by many people for many years. Stop pretending like it’s just from conservatives.

          But the guy who was pictured with Epstein numerous times, who Epstein had called a horrible human being, was promising to release them all! Also all the immigrants eating the dogs. It had to be him. Someone else might have gotten it wrong.
