@pinkcels Im sure i could find comments of women saying the exact same thing, the internet is a giant place. So instead of playing the blame game like a fucking four year old maybe try actually doing something that would make a difference.
@rancerex Honestly thats prolly just what ur algorithm found u gave the most attention to. For example mine is mostly gaming articles, cool art, some politics, and posts from my friends.
@MicheleMon7364@NNewt84@Provokethoughtz How retarded are u? It does actually occur to some men that they’re all the horrible men some people say they are, which is a reason why the male suicide rate is so high. But no, actually most men aren’t rapists/mysoginists
@Chris_GWW@deltaozzimo We’re just pulling definitions out of our asses now, even if my religion was false or “extremist”, (which I don’t believe it is but im not trying too debate that rn). It is in no way cult. Also cults don’t even have to be religious.
No. Men don’t hate women.
They’re afraid.
And I wish women would stop for a moment and imagine what the last several years have looked like from their perspective.
A man knows that once a woman is pregnant, his voice over whether his own unborn child lives may effectively disappear. He sees women cheering laws that permit abortion very late in pregnancy and hears arguments about circumstances in which it could happen even near birth.
You cannot answer the terror in that with statistics.
He is imagining his child and realizing that his desire to protect that child gives him no veto.
Then he watches children treated as though they possess the adult foresight to make decisions capable of changing their sexual development, fertility and future ability to become mothers or fathers. He watches adults call that agency. He sees healthy breasts removed from some adolescent girls and parents who object called transphobic.
Many women championed this.
Again, imagine being a father.
He is told that wanting to preserve possibilities his child cannot even comprehend yet is not protection but bigotry.
And now he hears Patrick Clancy’s 911 call.
A father who had gone out for food and medicine for his children comes home and discovers the unimaginable.
Then men open their phones and see women saying they “relate” to Lindsay, rallying around her, insisting she is innocent, even insinuating that somehow the father must be responsible.
What do we expect men to feel?
I would hope they are horrified.
I would hope something ancient and protective rises up in them and says:
No. The children.
That is not some boogeyman called “patriarchy.”
That is a lie.
It is paternal.
A father’s impulse to protect his children is not oppression. A potential father’s horror at imagining himself powerless to protect children he does not even have yet is not misogyny.
It is love mixed with terror.
And women are frightened too.
I say this as a rape survivor who lived through MeToo. I know what female social pressure feels like. I know how quickly another woman’s pain can be recruited into a collective narrative and how quickly hesitation can be called betrayal.
Women are human. We are capable of extraordinary tenderness, courage and protection. We are also capable of conformity, cruelty, status-seeking and being swept into a crowd.
Those of us whose families lived under totalitarianism recognize the danger here.
The Great Narrative takes an ordinary moral response and gives it an ideological name.
Paternal protection becomes “patriarchy.”
Fear becomes “misogyny.”
Protecting a child’s future becomes “transphobia.”
Female dissent becomes betrayal of women.
And pretty soon men look at women and think we have become monsters, while women look back and conclude that men hate us.
That is the trap.
Don’t fall for it.
Do not let the most grotesque women performing online convince you that they represent women. Do not let the angriest frightened men convince you that they represent hatred.
Fear is not hatred.
Paternal is not patriarchy.
And you cannot cure terror by shaming people for feeling it.
We should be coming together here, because underneath all of these political abstractions is something remarkably simple:
Children are not ideological material.
Do not kill them.
Do not destroy their future possibilities because a theory tells you it is compassionate.
Do not teach them to fear becoming mothers or fathers.
And do not teach men and women to fear one another for wanting to protect them.
The children come first.
We do not have to live by lies.
Ur purposely changing the meaning of what she’s saying. She’s not calling the women defective she’s saying their reproductive systems are. Which is completely true.
Lindsay Clancy murdered her children, and got a million dollars from supporters on GoFundMe.
Marianne Bachmeier killed her daughter’s killer in court in front of everyone, and got six year’s in prison.
The more i read about the Lindsay Clancy case the more depressed i get. Any women who sympathizes with her is not fit to be a mother. I don’t care if thats harsh. She fucking murdered three helpless children, there’s no excuse.
