Kick the bastard misogynist influencers off social media platforms and educate young men on having healthy relationships with others starting from school age.

Correct.

Systemic issues is a very vague concept. What causes young men to latch onto misogyny. Poverty? Mental health issues? Lack of meaningful employment options? Or do we circle back to blaming it on women and feminism again?

The two fundamental things that drive misogyny among men are the intensity of inequality between men themselves (more specifically, the degree to which men with property can assert themselves over men without property), and the degree to which men can be integrated into some kind of productive social relationship with other men & women.

Very few men actually start with the premise that "Women are Dishwashers." That's a political claim that they arrive at after consistently losing out to other more socially, or economically successful men, and subsequently internalizing their position in that dynamic as immutable natural law.

Your idea of empathy is why the Andrew Tates of this world can thrive. Worthless sentimentality and obsession with civility rather than seriously challenging toxic ideology. It’s the liberal way.

OK, but you're not actually offering a materially viable alternative to any of the underlying systemic issues that cause either of those problems.

It is also the liberal way to challenge bad ideas, as ideas only and not actually do anything about the underlying material causes & incentives that produce those ideas.

Your single existence might be ephemeral, but humanity isn’t, your community isn’t, and possibly your family either

It is though. Life has existed on this planet for just under 4 Billion years and in that time over 99% of all species to have ever come into existence have gone extinct.

Your community & family are no less ephemeral than the life you yourself live, but you won't get to see any of that.

If we lose trust in our community or in humanity in general

I never had a reason to trust them to begin with, tbh.

It’s so fucking embarrassing I wish I could literally just not be my gender for awhile.

You should probably delve that particular line of thought more deeply, tbh.

Female encroachment on what has traditionally been considered male spaces is not taken well. Female empowerment is considered taking from deserving males.

The problem is that in the context of a "winner-take-all" society it does do that though.

Obviously the general solution is to make a society that is overall more equitable between those who succeed & those who don't.

But if you aren't going to do that then you will get a reaction from those who are losing ground, even if that happening is the morally progressive outcome.

If the rule you followed brought you to this, of what use was the rule?

I'm kinda confused about who is supposed to be who...

The actual top answers to the questions seem to be reasonable tbh. IDK what you're getting at here.

I almost stopped reading at the first four words, tbh.
