I believe you mean martial law.

Vent your frustrations all you like, but don’t pretend that those gross generalizations aren’t exactly the same thing you’re claiming to be against just because the oppressed are using it against the oppressors. Last time I checked, we don’t consider the atrocities committed by the Allies during WWII to be justified…

Lolwut. That’s not what he’s/she’s saying at all. What they are saying is essentially you don’t fight a house fire with more fire; all you’re going to do is burn the goddamn house down.

So let me get this straight: you acknowledge that there’s all these hateful, misogynistic posts that that serve to prolong the systemic oppression of women, but you don’t acknowledge that similar posts about men are on par because men have never felt the same oppression?

It’s sad when women like you claim to be feminists while promoting misandry. All you’re doing is making a mockery of true feminism.

My dad worked hard, provided for his family, spent 12 years of his life selflessly caring for his wife after she was diagnosed with cancer. But he’s trash because he’s a male? There is no asterisk, just ALL MEN ARE TRASH.

Jesus fucking christ, did you really just say that shit? In 2017? Now who’s the troglodyte who needs to get with the fucking times? Unfucking believable.

Just because someone is female doesn’t mean they’re oppressed; just because someone’s male doesn’t mean they’re the oppressor. Memes that identify people by their group and call them all “trash” aren’t harmless, even when they’re directed at dominant groups; “white people are trash” isn’t harmless just because the…

You’re white (judging from your black and white photo, apologies if I’m mischaracterizing your race), so you’re saying that a black woman could call you racial epithets and it would be fine because as a white person you take the role of “oppressor” in the state of the world order? They can go and post “white people…

Counter-point: calling my gf a bitch ass ho is hilarious and fills me with harmless laughter. Do you see what I did there? Just because you think it’s harmless doesn’t make it right. If you want this shit to end everyone needs to be on the same page.

>The problem here is that the ‘men are trash’ gets banned while the ‘women are worthless’ doesn’t.

It’s called revenge politics. Mainstream feminism is ALL about revenge politics: some men did women wrong so all men have to pay the price. (Fun fact: BLACK FEMINISM largely eschews this nonsense even though black women get CRAPPED on by lots of black men.)

...vent their frustration with toxic systemic oppression.

Yeah the definite way to level the playing field is for the oppressed to bite their tongues

Historical perspectives and current realities matter, and this isn’t hate speech because it just flat out does not carry with it the toxicity Libby is talking about.

Oh I’m sorry did YOU go though women’s suggerage personally? Nah? Didn’t think so. Grow up. You can’t categorically condemn an entire sex or race or the past actions of a few. That’s the textbook bigotry. Im Irish and Native American. My ancestors were persecuted and murdered and stolen from. But I look mostly like…

Women are trash..

“Largely, men who act offended by things like “men are trash” or “white people suck” are doing it to make a point, not because they really are offended;”

It’s weird.

Jeez, dude, I’ve never seen so many people misconstrue a very clear, concise, and reasonably thought out statement.
