To the lefties: remember that every time you say you “hate all men” or something similar, you’re making the same kind of prejudiced judgments that righties do when they declare all Jews or Muslims to be evil.
To the righties: remember that every time you’re accused of being evil just for being a man, you’re doing the same thing to Jews or Muslims when you say you hate them all.
To the centrists: this isn’t a centrist take. The man-haters on the left are a small minority and the religious and racial bigots on the right are a majority (based on the politicians they elect). Quit being a dipshit and move to the left so we can get single-payer healthcare and stop oppressing minorities.
To the sane individuals: yes, I am on drugs.
And if I’m an increasingly left-leaning centrist?
One day, people will understand that “all men” is about how you can’t/shouldn’t trust men who are strangers because it’s statistically unsafe. All men who you don’t know are a danger. This is just facts. Once you know people, they’re not “all men” anymore, unless they do shady things.
I can almost guarantee there are women out there who actually do hate all men. Never underestimate the shittiness of the worst person. Yes, 99% of people that say “all men are bad” do mean “assume men are bad for safety”, but there will be some who axis refuse to challenge that assumption.
Very probably. So what you’re saying is that it’s implied that “not all women” that say “all men” mean it that way? And that we all understand that absolute statements are almost never meant that way?
Most abuse comes from people that are close to the victim…
Can’t get abused if you never let anyone close taps forehead
I think what you meant to say was that it usually comes from within the family.
If we can’t or shouldn’t trust people based on crime statistics, you’re not gonna like how this is going to end.
I don’t know what percentage of women think this way, but I’ve anecdotally seen a fair few of them declare “all men are pigs” or something similar in response to being wronged by someone who happens to be a man. (Not in a mugging/assault type way)
Yes, and one day people will understand that Trump didn’t say all Mexicans are criminals and rapists.
The problem is, when you make sweeping generalizations like this, even if you add a disclaimer or explanation, you’re bound to severely misjudge some people, and you’re always going to have some folks who completely miss your clarification and will just run with “oh, so we should hate ALL of them then”.
…and also that the God is the same for all of them, they just have different lore.
Different DLCs, as it were
Jew is the base, Christian and Muslim are DLC
The same fictional all seeing man who cares when they masturbate or who they make love to.
the God is the same for all of them
Entirely fictional.
That’s a given… don’t state the obvious, it’s like reminding that magic isn’t real in a Harry Potter forum.
I mean, considering what happened next in this episode…
Only a select few people actually profit from hatred and division between us. Let’s not give them that twisted satisfaction. ✊🏼
Idk, a lot of people relish in doing the discrimination. You can see it in their faces that they’re having a grand ol’ time making others miserable.
Can’t unsee
We all know how the cartoon will go in a couple of seconds.
My parents raised me to feel a sort of potty for those who’s brains are too smooth to fight against religious indoctrination.
Potty?
Right, they’re not a problem for me. We could get along all day but I’m a problem to them as a gay atheist.
Right! Like the moderator up top said don’t criticize people for their beliefs. Are you fucking kidding me?! So their belief that you should be killed is OK?
