There's plenty of documented examples of feminism organizing against men's concerns when it conflicts with their agenda

2018-11-26 04:18:08 UTC  

Instead of working with us, they try to shut us out of the discussion

2018-11-26 04:18:14 UTC  

Sometimes violently

2018-11-26 04:18:14 UTC  

And why?

2018-11-26 04:18:21 UTC  

That is the real question

2018-11-26 04:18:31 UTC  

That they do these things is not doubted

2018-11-26 04:18:45 UTC  

but to say it is because they oppose equality is at best misguided

2018-11-26 04:19:01 UTC  

It's accurate no matter their reason.

2018-11-26 04:19:17 UTC  

Why do you think why they do it changes that they do?

2018-11-26 04:19:26 UTC  

It does not

2018-11-26 04:19:30 UTC  

I never said it does

2018-11-26 04:19:42 UTC  

but it changes how we can judge them on it

2018-11-26 04:19:49 UTC  

and how we can solve the problem

2018-11-26 04:20:00 UTC  

You just said it's misguided to say they oppose equality, when it's a factual statement.

2018-11-26 04:20:21 UTC  

They do not oppose equality

2018-11-26 04:20:31 UTC  

They oppose groups that supposedly fight for equality

2018-11-26 04:20:31 UTC  

@InsaneCaterpilla's logic is sound, but just to break down the argument into simple points that can be understood:

2018-11-26 04:20:46 UTC  

that is different than deliberately opposing all equality

2018-11-26 04:20:56 UTC  

1) Feminism only cares about women while arguing for equality, by definition

2018-11-26 04:21:02 UTC  

Yes

2018-11-26 04:21:06 UTC  

Same with the MRM

2018-11-26 04:21:14 UTC  

2) The MRM primarily cares about men while arguing for equality, by definition

2018-11-26 04:21:22 UTC  

correct

2018-11-26 04:21:37 UTC  

3) Only feminism has tried to shut the MRM out of the discussion. We've been trying to work with them for years

2018-11-26 04:21:53 UTC  

r/menslib does it fairly well

2018-11-26 04:22:11 UTC  

r/menslib dismisses genuine problems men face in society

2018-11-26 04:22:21 UTC  

They're an arm of feminism

2018-11-26 04:22:27 UTC  

Sorry to interject but have you seen menslib?

2018-11-26 04:22:31 UTC  

@Rai right

2018-11-26 04:22:51 UTC  

Yes I have. I actually prefer it to r/mensrights right now

2018-11-26 04:23:00 UTC  

some great discussions going on there

2018-11-26 04:23:01 UTC  

Now

2018-11-26 04:23:11 UTC  

give an example of it dismissing genuine problems

2018-11-26 04:23:16 UTC  

You mean like how to teach men not to rape people?

2018-11-26 04:23:50 UTC  

which is a genuine thing?

2018-11-26 04:23:53 UTC  

That's legitimately a topic I saw seriously discussed on there last time I viewed it

2018-11-26 04:24:16 UTC  

Yeppers. You have a problem with educating people about consent?

2018-11-26 04:25:05 UTC  

I have a problem with it being aimed at men specifically. And assuming that men don't know what rape is is frankly ridiculous

2018-11-26 04:25:07 UTC  

4) A pluralistic society involves interest groups like feminism and the MRA working together to shape policy, and by the compromises made, society is defined by the collective self-interest of the people through groups representing them

2018-11-26 04:25:42 UTC  

At this point it should be obvious that when feminism refuses to work with us that they are against the supposed "equality" they argue for

2018-11-26 04:26:42 UTC  

@InsaneCaterpilla that is not what it is. It is about the form of rape known as "misinformed belief in consent". Not deliberate rape. And while it should be aimed more at both genders, the current meme around rape makes that challenging
