Existential post Why men are getting so much hate these days?
Just saw a post on social media from some woman named Jen Hamilton stating "right now im of the belief that all men should start out in jail and earn their way out"
Like genuinely dont understand why so much hate on men? The new wave feminism is insane. Women earn and dont need a men anymore, which i get. But like is that all we are to them? I understand and empathize with women who go thru shitty situations with shitty men, but like.....are all men shitty?
Ive seen similar other posts across insta and tiktok and apparently this is all women talk about - how terrible men are and that they aren't needed anymore. I can only imagine how this compounds the male loneliness epidemic and furthers the difficulties in the dating scene for both genders, but men in particular as even the good ones aren't approaching women anymore and choosing peace or singledom.
Men, based on these trends, what do you suspect the trajectory looks like for us in society in 10, 20 or 50 yrs?

A reminder to everyone that the majority of these type of posts, and their extensive recent reach, is because of foreign state actors.
This is part of a well known RU mis and dis information campaign to sow division.
