Reddit also has subreddits, currently active, like r/FemaleDatingStrategy, a cesspool of femcels. TwoXXchromosomes is very similar in how they treat and classify men. I do not think either kind of spaces should be allowed to exist, if censorship is going to be used as a tool against targeted hatred.
Assumed it was a TERF subreddit because of the name, but then I went to check it out and it's just a dumb 'Reddit-core'ism like calling table salt sodium chloride and it's just like a general discussion place for women.
Incredibly sus to be comparing a community focused on sharing vids of women being beaten and people dying to women just discussing life and their relationships.
those subreddits existing makes the incel subreddits ok
Did I ever say that? Neither is ok, as I already said. Hatred is hatred, be it incel or femcel. If censorship is going to be used as a tool to destroy hatred, destroy both kinds of hate.
Yeah, like whatever, get rid of them too. But like why did you feel the need to "what about" to talking about misandrists in response to someone criticising the amount of violent misogyny present on the early internet?
OG comment claimed that "dumb Karen" is one of the reasons why internet went downhill, followed by a reply of "incels" being responsible. Within this reply, a mention of r/beatingwomen is put besides r/jailbait, basically signalling that the replier wanted the conversation to shift to a binary gender war, to which I replied that a counterpart to the incel subreddits exists, and is not shutdown or criticised the same way incel subs are, and that both must be shutdown if censorship is going to be weaponised to destroy cultural hate.
Misandry is a counterpart to misogyny, and both fuel each other. This is the basic concept of hatred. Hate fuels hate, and love (not selective) fuels love.
Whataboutism claims are a good sign of pseudo intellectuals dog whistling to attract mob attention, usually a last resort card played by people when they never have good discussion or argument skills. And apparently, I never imagined in my wildest imaginations that it will be used as a reply to a Hexbear user, considering I support the leftist instance (just like Lemmygrad) overwhelmingly.
