oh wow, I hadn't noticed they were both from the same person
He's a major hate machine. I don't know how he hasn't been banned yet. They keep telling him to leave off.
Discord is good, one thing I dislike about reddit is that the karma system kind of hampers actual discussion
mostly I like the idea of casual conversation
with like minded individuals
I don't think casually posting stuff in a major forum that 200 000 people subscribe to is polite
Exactly, discord allows for more casual discussion
I worry about having an echo chamber though, being with a bunch of like minded people is great but I don't want to become like feminists who shut out anything that isn't conducive to their ideals
hasn't happened on the sub reddit yet
Don't worry, we welcome Feminists and others to come debate as long as it isn't just angry insults. Anyone is allowed on here, and they can set the topic if they want.
So, what's everyone up to? :)
I'm sitting with my German exchange partner in ahlen!
This Imnotmrabut guy is on to something
Random - anyone use or have used a Nest heating system?
@Indigo on to what? I'm a little bit confused as to why they removed and reposted it.
It's probably because they just wanted to stop Imnotanmrabut from putting people off from coming here without actually deleting his comments. That's likely what happened I think, but I'll ask @goodmod just to be sure.
He's likely feeling wronged since he wanted to be a part of it
He's welcome to take part as long as he doesn't try to ruin the place, lol
It's risky as of now to do that I guess
I think that may be part of it though. He only became bitter about this after he didn't get his way.
We’re open but only if people pay basic respect to rules and etiquette
@Indigo Yeah. I don't see him being likely to play nice even though the Discord centres around the sub.
I mean, it would be a real first for the guy. Lol
Hey, anyone noticed any new media outlets becoming more interested in Men's Rights topics?
lol, all of them actually
It’s like every month we’re plus +2%
Can someone give me a run down of the problems with the Gillette ad?
We had made blog post about it
Let me see
@KOMRADE_DIMITRI photo for example.
1: It demonizes men. It says that men are horrible people, and they should stop being horrible rapists and abusers. It is insulting and puts men in a bad light.
2: It talks as if wrestling or playing rough is a bad thing, when in fact it is just something men do. Nothing wrong with that.
We need to spread that image far and wide.
Exactly. It shows people who are blinded by bias their hypocrisy.
Not exactly what I was looking for, but ok
That ad is an attack disguised as positivity. It paints men with a large, broad brush and implies that "If you're upset, you're part of the problem"
A similar ad targeted at women would not go down well either. Imagine an ad showing women committing paternity fraud, gold digging, abusing children, with the message "Be the best you can be, women".
@Thedemogamer💙 I'm glad you are that responsible about what you can do and have done.
