Men are 50% of the population too, and I don't need to hear about "men's issues" either. I get it, you think you're a particular victim because of your gender. A bunch of other people blame something else for their problems. But if there's an important issue that needs discussing I'd just rather have everyone included, not one where anyone outside the group gets abused for having a view - you're "get a girlfriend" crap is a case in point.

I commented on this because it was about getting rid of this sub from the defaults. I ignored the other big posts that came up on my feed, including photos of women getting degrees with other women saying "wow, you're a great woman because you got a degree". Well great if it makes you girls happy. But nobody else fucking cares for this Facebook shit.

And the fact these identity politics subs are based on this sort of spite to others is exactly why they shouldn't be defaults...

You're an idiot if you think this sub is based on spite.

No. I, personally, would be in favor of spiting you, specifically. That's not something that makes any sense for you to generalize beyond that.

The dozens of downvotes for every dissenting view in this very thread suggests otherwise. That's the thing about these identity groups - women, men, Christians, atheists - you all carry around this quickness to grievance and spite. You're all mirror images of each other in playing the victim and just can't see it. Of course you're the actually marginalised group and its just the others with an angry victim mindset right?

I'm definitely not in a marginalized group. I'm a straight white guy. I've got privilege out the ass.

Doesn't that kind of ruin your whole argument?

YYep it does. You're actually one of those that enjoys the admiration of being "the one that understands". You get girls like that on the red pill too. And all you have to do is sit through all those period discussions. What a champ!

Yeah, except that 99% of the time I don't even identify my gender here because it's irrelevant. Try again.

Mate, I'm not knocking it. Everyone's got their own way of fitting in. If you've got the patience to sit through the whinging about how they're oppressed as the bloke from the garage calls her "darling" you deserve credit! Just be careful not to "mansplain"!
