I've tried to have this discussion many times on here and it's frankly boring. Watch the documentary if you guys want.
Honestly I'm bored too. I don't agree with the **** you say but I'm sick of getting huffy with a guy I actually like over an internet argument.

All I see in this thread is a bunch of people saying, "men are the most privileged therefore they don't have a right to change things about their position in society that are unfair".

If you're gonna make fighting for rights based on who needs it the most and not about people standing up for particular situations they most identify with then you should probably just fuck off.


I'll reserve my comments about how similar this is to whiny modern day feminists for when I see it. I suspect it will be more whiny and woe is me than intellectual and well argued.

The statistics completely back up things like high male suicide rates, large differential in prison sentencing, work place deaths, close to parity in domestic violence etc. Also the fact that boys can have their genitals mutilated freely.

But your attitude is one to be commended.

We need to get over the need for simple narratives with designated good guys and bad guys.
This kind of thinking is a problem across the political spectrum and the number one reason I tend to stay away from politics and social activism.

They aren't the same, but guided by the same biases.
I like politics to be about specific issues, not about ideologies.

Yeah, ideologies are just nationalism for ideas.

remember that time the people from BLM and the LGTBQ got mad at the women's march. why we gotta fight over who has it hardest? wouldn't it be more productive to like, discuss resolutions to the potential issues that exist.
