Why would you believe a position that involves hating an entire gender is at all justified

Feathercrownto Memes@lemmy.ml•"If you didn't want fascism you should have voted!"English1·4 hours agoThis is a dangerously strong and broad sentiment to present as a hard rule. This is how propaganda is created.
Although in the example you gave those four did literally give the bill exactly enough votes to pass, so… uhoh
So you were only pretending to call them racist?
I know this is a joke, but for informational purposes, it’s the opposite of what this guy said
Those examples are used because there is plenty of well-known racism and religion…ism (forgot the word) discussion along those lines. It’s like asking why people use squares and circles as their go-to example shapes, it’s part of the cultural consciousness. They’re using those examples because they know people consider them to be racist, and using that to imply that “men are rapists” is similarly sexist. It’s easy to twist this behavior into something problematic, but it’s really not.
If you can’t win an argument without insinuating your opponent is a rapist maybe you should stop to think about why that is.
I feel like almost every time I’ve seen “not all men” in the wild, it’s in response to someone actually making generalized statements about men, not just someone stating that they must be cautious.
Bad take, you’re dismissing society’s effect on the psyche of many men by saying these things
This comment section is amazing. Good job all
Thanks. That’s bad to be clear, but 4 out of 213 doesn’t seem worthy of all the displeasure you’ve stated.
Edit: the American masses don’t like their world view being questioned it seemed
When you write something like this, you can’t genuinely think it’s 100% accurate, right? Like, you have to know it’s BS deep down, right?

Feathercrownto Memes@lemmy.ml•"If you didn't want fascism you should have voted!"English1·5 hours agoI’m not doing either of those things. I’m pointing out that things staying the same is preferable to them getting worse. Of course positive change is also better than stagnation. Those are both true. It’s a pretty simple scale IMO, progress > stagnation > regress. I don’t see where the misunderstanding is coming from; do you think I wouldn’t prefer progress?
So your excuse is that some other people of the opposite gender are equally as shitty as you’re planning to be?
