Hello brothers

2020-01-17 21:57:40 UTC  

How are you doing Macho? 🙂

2020-01-17 22:04:38 UTC  

I came to this server to meet like minded people. I'm glad its not just me who thinks men are systematically devalued and treated like dogs in this society. I grew up in the Caribbean but moved to America when I was finishing high school.

2020-01-17 22:07:45 UTC  

Its incredibly hard to talk about this topic in the wild because most people have inherent hatred for men. Including men too

2020-01-17 22:09:41 UTC  

@Men Are Human I'm looking to hear and discuss any and all topics. Obviously here for an environment where what men have to say is actually heard and not dismissed as "man-splaining".

I'm hoping that the majority of people here have seen The Red Pill (movie)?

@Psycho War Pup I loved that documentary

2020-01-17 22:14:05 UTC  

I brought it up as movie night with my ex, and as I pitched it, she immediately bounced back with "but men have all the right already". I just responded with a smile and a "let's just watch and see"

Her attitude took a right turn after the film.

2020-01-17 22:14:07 UTC  

@Psycho War Pup yes. Its very enlightening.

2020-01-17 22:18:17 UTC  

It should be common sense but we live gynocentric society so its overlooked. Feminist propaganda runs deep in Hollywood and the mainstream media so most people seems to think we are a priviliged class

2020-01-17 22:19:08 UTC  

And unfortunately they're practically raised with that belief. Especially nowadays

2020-01-17 22:19:30 UTC  

I truly believe privilege only truly exists in classes in america anyway

2020-01-17 22:20:57 UTC  

It's the only sensible way to use the term

2020-01-17 22:21:42 UTC  

@machoroot You are definitely in the right place if you want to talk about systematic discrimination.

2020-01-17 22:22:08 UTC  

@Psycho War Pup I think most of us have. Not perfect, but a really good intro I think. 🙂

2020-01-17 22:22:51 UTC  

Oh, I nearly forgot to approve you Macho! Welcome!

2020-01-18 00:22:41 UTC  

Ahh what brings you here

2020-01-18 00:25:46 UTC

2020-01-18 00:26:25 UTC

Hello, I am Elijah. I am a lurker at r/mensrights and found the link there.

Hi @Cyb3rd3lic what brings you here?

2020-01-19 14:22:10 UTC  

Hi there! Good question. I was a Feminist for a long time and became disillusioned with the approach to dealing with men and men's issues, later Patriarchy theory didn't match up with the world as I saw it...
So, I suppose I'm here because I've wanted to explore the political side of men's issues and activism. After listening to The Honey Badgers for a couple of years I've decided to just dive in and see where the currents take me.

2020-01-19 14:31:13 UTC  

cool!

2020-01-19 14:33:43 UTC  

And now you have the role

2020-01-19 14:33:52 UTC  

So you can talk to us all about it

2020-01-19 14:57:21 UTC  

Cheers! :D

2020-01-19 15:23:54 UTC  

We have quite a few ex-feminists here, so you should find a lot of people to talk to about your experiences. :)

2020-01-19 15:29:04 UTC  

That's good to hear! Because I want to be part of a discussion, it just a sagging off match against feminists. I got to this Discord through Reddit and the groups I've subscribed to a half reasonable and half...vitriol. I'll be glad to take a step away from that and settle into something more comfortable with pushing MRActivism forward. At least, that's what I hope to get from this.

2020-01-19 15:42:35 UTC  

I'm really glad to hear it. :) We're trying to set up as a hub of activism and news, so it's good to hear you want to take part. We're actually just talking about one of our team who was doing interviews at the woman's march yesterday.

2020-01-19 16:33:42 UTC  

BlueOrange by any chance? I am intrigued to see what he (I assume) managed to get. As it is, I am an aspiring journalist and am setting myself up over the next 6 months. If I do manage it I'll be covering the MRA and it's talking points as well as Feminism, but it's a pipe dream until January is over - if it isn't I could help by contributing.
