Well, like the other Comrade said, are we really going to split hairs here? Angry men attending a private Catholic college in Massachusetts allegedly involved in the "anti-pedo" fight and totally misdirecting violence and attack an outside guy coming in to have sex with 'one of their own'? That's kinda textbook reactionary shit.

I really don't think some Starbucks radlibs did this.

Also, for the record, radlibs are my opponents too.

Fair enough, I had not seen that it had been linked in the thread before I started responding to your post, and after having read the article I can now conclude that this is way more insane than what either of us seem to be arguing for.

Apparently this was a coordinated ambush by at least 30 campus students of mixed company (that is to say both men & women), and they were actually students at a private Roman Catholic college. So while I'll concede that this is probably not a consequence of "Age Gap Discourse", I also don't think you can credibly reduce it to "Angry Young Men Venting Misogyny". This is actually like some kind of insane Youth Q-Anon Brigade.

Yeah, I feel you. It is very wild, especially considering that I think there's not much difference at all between an 18 year old and a 22 year old, but maybe I'm just old. I don't know the exact reasons for this or whatever, or if this is actual coordinated group or actually spontaneous, but whatever is going on there are reactionary misogynistic brainworms there, in my opinion. Women can participate in upholding that as well.
