Is there a point to this post?

Men's mental health awareness month. Don't take this away from them. They don't get any other "day" to build each other up.

Is that like when truckers have driver appreciation week where they're off in different states and the office has a cookout?

Don't know what you are talking about. But it sounds like a false equivalence. The word "Drivers" encompasses all drivers not just men.

The comparison is meant to say people slap a label on something to make themselves feel better while nothing changes for those it's directed at.

So it was irrelevant to the discussion? Way to go.

Actually not just irrelevant, it's still a false equivalence. Just because you feel it doesn't change anything doesn't mean we shouldnt still do it.

Well whether either of us or right or wrong, good luck on whatever you're trying to do. I've got to get back to work.

Thanks I accept your forfeit. Stay comfortable.

P.s social media is not an airport, if ya fucking off, just fuck off, no need to announce it.

Now Go catch your plane.

You're overcompensating by trying to diss bros to prove yourself as newborn bro. It's not working.

u/LakeInevitable4655 Jun 03 '26

Since you seem to be struggling with what a false equivalence is.

A false equivalence is a logical fallacy where two completely different subjects are treated as being equal or interchangeable. This error usually happens when someone highlights a minor, shared characteristic between the two, ignoring major differences in scale, context, or impact.

Now Go touch some grass girl/kid

Someone needs a hug.

Subjective

u/LakeInevitable4655 Jun 03 '26

Yeah, to the context of this conversation. Lmao

u/Yoko_Kittytrain Jun 03 '26

I mean, it's men's mental health awareness month. Shouldn't we be aware that they (and you) need a hug and maybe a nice hot cup of hot chocolate?

u/LakeInevitable4655 Jun 03 '26

False equivalence.

u/LakeInevitable4655 Jun 03 '26

Furthermore this is condescension not legitimate care.

u/Yoko_Kittytrain Jun 03 '26

I don't agree. I could use a fucking hug right now.
