I would not judge this an apt comparison to feminism
Well that's how powerful feminism is compared to MRAs
Who does the media support?
Feminists.
Who do the younger generation support?
society is fickle
Feminists
Feminism is in vogue right now
but thats not power
its influence, sure
but not power
I'll put it this way....
adolescence is idealism and wanting to fight every battle
Adulthood is pragmatism and realizing some battles can't be won
this is another opinion, which is different than a fact
@Suzaku Kururugi that does not answer the question. Why are trying to get people to give up rather than fight? If your opinion is that things are hopeless, why are bothering?
My point is your enemy outnumbers and outpowers you dramatically....so you don't have the luxury to spread out so thin and focus on trivial things
There are bigger fish to fry
Affirmative action is a far bigger issue
And it honestly seems most MRAs either don't realize this
Your opinion is that feminism is too powerful and that the MRM should give up and no one should have children. Why is that issue any different? It's not. You're avoiding the question because your intent here is to sow discord
Any more discussion of this from you will be considered trolling for right now.
Am I allowed to answer the question or no?
As it stands, no
ok, fair enough. I'll just say that I don't want to sow discord.
I apologise if that's true. I hope it is temporary
@InsaneCaterpilla "I think it's abhorrent that your opinion is that men are evil for trying to live their life to the fullest and do their best by the children they bring into this world". This idea is less weird when you think of it as saying that the reason we have children isn't so that we can play with them, but so that they can play with the world. If the world isn't good for the kid, then how does one justify childbirth?
What weirds me out is suggesting that the issues unique to men make the difference between "better to never have been" and not
As far as feminism being too powerful. Probably not. However, whether the MRM will ever be able to achieve some of its goals *is* a serious question. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YW5lV5Xy2ic&feature=youtu.be&t=74
I think that's actually a wonderful debate topic
Better than antinatalism at any rate 😉
I like the video. I've never thought that men's rights would become accepted in the world today as it means society (and all the people in it) changing its views of men. But there is hope for the future to change things, little by little, to have our voices heard and make the future a little brighter day by day. I know us here have compassion for men. Others can learn to have it too.
As the video says, there doesn't need to be enough people like that for men's rights to be considered 'main stream'. Just enough to ensure that things go in the right direction and make things fairer for men in the world.
Haha, yeah, we don't have much of a disagreement there.
@Suzaku Kururugi A defensive pact with America, England, and Europe to shoot down any and all nukes coming their way. 😃
what?
do you mean NATO?
Literally anything that can shoot down incoming nukes would solve the problem.
they're working on lasers for that
