Gotta love people crying wolf so when this actually happens nobody cares.

Works very well for my side of politics.

so is anyone here legitimately ilb-left? this is a conservative server mostly right?

Afaik no, of the leftists we've had/have here, they're usually commies or some flavour of anarchist.

ilb-left?

And I'm a leftist

I think he means liberal

Ew

Like an unironic Trudeau-style feminist shitlib.

Feminism's ok, but definitely not the liberal subtype

Liberal feminists and left feminists don't like each other too much from what I've seen, at least here

There's no difference between them as far as I'm concerned.

There's nothing for feminists to fight for in western countries so now they're fighting to have more rights than men have.

When I'm back I can post here some shitstorm that happened between these two year ago
It was fucking hilarious

Sure

I'd debate if today's feminism is about fighting for any rights
I mean, here they fight for some rights, but they are mostly rights that are a standard in the West
Feminism here is more about social change and other similar bullshit

My favorite will always be the earnings gap.

Because it's entirely in their control, they just wont work the same hours as men do.

And just to say I'm not a feminist (and tbh I don't really treat "male feminists" seriously and I think that feminists are more often than not delusional
But I kind of like it tbh

What do you mean by the hours thing?

In a measurement of total earnings, men earn more than women. Men also spend more time at work than women do.

Oh, this

Working overtime, that sort of thing.

Jobs that just come with long hours attached are pretty male dominated.

The thing with earinng gap is that most of people (both those who agree with the whole thing and those who don't) don't understand it
Earning gap can only be analysed between exactly the same jobs
So, if the man and the woman (it doesn't necessarily have to be gender-based though) do the same work, and one of them gets paid better, there is an earning gap
(of course, there are also other market factors to consider, so this is a very simplified model)
And that was measured, and the gap actually exists

It's kind of expected in capitalist system for many reasons, mostly because women can get pregnant and that's a burden for a capitalist
