Nobody is saying that any abuse is ok since someone has it worse elsewhere. In the west, there are assaults, but it's against the law and the perpetrators will be punished. In Islamic countries, it's ok for family honor. Has everyone forgotten the women who were stoned to death for being raped? The photo even has the caption pointing out the comparison to having to hear opposing viewpoints...NOT comparison to other abuse.

I can't believe people missed the point so bad, when it's even part of the damn caption. But it does serve to demonstrate the trigger warning: Rock some people's world a little and they go full batshit on you. "Point out that in some countries women can be attacked with non consequence? You must think that rape is ok in the US."

WTF.

You are right, Dan. Many men in the US *can't* handle opposing views. I see it most often with college age "men" who can't tolerate non-PC opinions from women who think that abortion is murder or that Hillary wasn't a good choice for US President. Or from female taxpayers who, against all PC principles, don't think the the federal government has the responsibility to,provide everyone with health insurance or "free" college. Some of those "men" even need "safe spaces" where they don't have to hear those horrific opinions.
