quote from the article...
should be a good one to watch

What a surprise. The article’s headline itself misses the entire point this survey shows. Not that feminism has ‘gone too far’ but that men have been left behind. The harping about the negative view towards stay-at-home dads, well no shit. We just went through 30 years of watching feminism deride stay-at-home moms, that women deserve more than to be raising children, and that to be a progressive actualized woman you need a career. WHEREEVER could have man gotten the idea that staying at home and raising children was not respectable or a worthy occupation in their lives.

And even in the first goddamn question of the survey that is supposed to highlight these bigoted Gen Z’ers:

Quote:A survey of more than 24,000 people across 30 countries revealed 57% of Gen Z men felt their nation had "gone so far in promoting women's equality that we are discriminating against men."

Question specifically brings in how it is affecting men, not about how ‘uppity’ woman are. And the second question restates this very point even more clearly:

Quote:Six in 10 Gen Z men also said they were being asked to do too much to support women

But the Left being the Left, they’ll ignore their role in pushing young men to the extreme right and disenfranchising them and instead throw all the blame on ‘toxic masculinity’ even ignoring how they will partake of that same toxicity when it benefits their goals.

Thanks for coming to my Ted talk.

wag

Oh, well... how can I ignore that bulletproof argument?

In the interim, this sane poster is being gangpiled:

Quote:With all due respect, you were responding to a comment I made that was quite clear in the remit it was discussing, and was based solely on the context of the OP that I quoted.

However, if we want to get into why people are being radicalised, we shouldn't ignore that progressive spaces can be outright hostile to social segments considered to be privileged. Why should we expect young men to want to be a part of community where people can say what they want about them without any consideration regarding the harm of generalisations? If we're to approach truly intersectional equality, then we can't have double standards regarding the emotions of the individual.

We're shown time and time again that a large portion of what we attribute as privilege is more closely tied to class than anything else, and yet progressive outreach to low income and socioeconomic background men is consistently done from a place of pure reluctance, when it happens at all. We've feathered and tarred so many advocates for the actual issues men have that there are few progressives that feel comfortable sticking their neck out to help with things like men's loneliness, the struggles boys have with school, or the disparity between how men and women are treated by the law.

Like, put yourself in the shoes of a fourteen year old boy that's just been told that most women would rather be alone with a bear than a man. Anyone with a shred of empathy can understand exactly how the right-wing pipeline is functioning. We're the ones doing the excluding. Right wing radicalising bastards are just picking up the leftovers.
