    Honestly if you have to write paragraphs to defend something that is intuitively ignorant and bigoted to do, you’ve lost the argument by default

      I think she “had to” write that much because she knew the thickness of the skull she was trying to penetrate. And your counter-“argument” only proves that point.

      P.S. Just because you think something is intuitive to you doesn’t mean it’s correct. It just shows you’re part of the system that needs replacing.

        We all know that grouping people together is shitty. I don’t have to make any argument

          This is reductive. I do not disagree with the fact that generalizing diverse groups is wrong, and I made that fact clear in my comment. You either didn’t read my comment, didn’t understand it, or are maliciously choosing to misrepresent it.

              I am not suggesting that it’s okay to make men feel responsible for the actions of people that share only a gender with them, nothing else.

              Again, you can stick your head in the sand. It’s your prerogative. I’m not going to argue with you. You can choose to learn or not, it’s your life.

                Self righteous to the end. To be expected. This is what I was calling out. I have no wish to argue. Only to push back against lumping people together. It’s unhealthy and you cannot really justify it. Leaning into the idea isn’t helping anyone at all. It is possible to see this with some nuance and not be a piece of shit “all lives matter” person. That was an extremely shitty thing to compare such a small few words to. I argued with that attitude and despised it from the moment I heard of it. “All lives matter” is absolute trash and has absolutely zero relation to this. You simply wanted to belittle me as some kind of repressed piece of shit conservative. Enjoy that.

                  Yeah, you refuse to read another person’s comment, demand your superiority be recognized, and claim everyone else is self righteous. That tracks.

      And if you took the time to read my messages, you’d recognize that I agree that saying “all men are trash” is an unjustly prejudiced statement. What you aren’t realizing is the societal pressures and power imbalances which you’ve conveniently ignored in your argument. You’re taking the same rhetorical role as the “all lives matter” people in response to BLM. I’m not arguing with you. I’m explaining to you. It’s your choice to learn or to stick your head in the sand, and it makes no difference to me.

        See I made the mistake of reading this one and it’s emblematic of exactly what I was getting at:

        • Extrapolates things I didn’t say
        • Seems to imply a random stranger on the Internet knows more about me than I do
        • Self righteous and egotistical
        • Claims I’m ignoring things which are entirely beside my point
        • Dodges the point which was simply that something which is objectively shitty is shitty
        • Continues defending shitty behavior while denying doing so
        • Compares me to disgusting assholes I hate and have nothing in common with
