but I'm sick and tired of the debate being framed as "right = for free speech, left = against free speech" when that's just so untrue.

@mrsuperman8942 If you found that insensitive and rude, sorry to tell you this but you're the minority of men it portrayed. I don't know any normal men who got upset, most thought it was calling out certain types of men but not all men by any means. Also what happened to free speech? Why is it outrageous when Cambridge uninvited Jordan Peterson and we all need to defend his right to free speech and platform, but when Gillette makes an ad that offends a few men they deserve backlash because the ad was rude? See that's what I mean by the blatant conservative hypocrisy when it comes to being offended and freedom of speech. When Ana Kasparian from TYT got uninvited from speaking on a college campus, how many right wing pundits defended her right to speak? Fucking zero, they all twiddled their thumbs while looking the other way. But when a right wing person gets uninvited, all hell breaks loose. I'm not saying this is your case btw because I agree with your example about Captain Marvel,

Yes. "Melania Trump" is her human-given name. Her real name is Akkmalak the Unbroken, she's actually a legend among the lizard people society.

Eh, you're entitled to your opinion.
I'm just tired of the "people are so sensitive nowadays" schtick, especially when it comes from conservatives with the implication that only young people and only left leaning people are easily offended when... well we all remember what happened with Walmart, Keurig, Gillette and Nike.

Ikr. This reminds me of the "can't you just not be depressed?" line of thinking.

Hey I just tried to explain a concept, it ain't my fault that *someone* decided to throw a tantrum in here.

I thought guestwho was just trying really hard to have the last word even though they have nothing of substance to say ... But your explanation is way funnier

@guest_ I am having a lovely weekend, thank you!
And yes, I have definitely been brainwashed by a leftist programme but damn are the lizard people secretive about it. They even erased our minds afterwards so that we would also forget everything they taught us. How thorough!
Side note, I've been reading some books about populism lately and guestwho displays many of the signs of... Let's say a person who would get very easily influenced by a populist movement. The us vs them mentality, the dehumanization/ad hominems, the borderline conspiracy theory, the "things used to be better in the past" mindset (also often called "Heartland")... Maybe I've been brainwashed by education but it's really interesting to see the signs here

I think it's an even more awkward moment when one person explained the issue eloquently as heck and the other has no argument so they just pretend it's not worth replying to. We see through your bullshit, guestwho.

Toxic masculinity = toxic behavior that stems specifically from gender roles/expectations on men. It's a subcategory of toxic personality/toxic behavior, just like toxic femininity.
Examples of toxic masculinity: catcalling, being aggressive, telling other men not to cry because they're men (seriously the last one is very damaging to men's psyche). What is NOT toxic masculinity: enjoying stereotypically manly things (as long as nobody gets seriously hurt obv), being comfortable in your identity as a man.
Examples of toxic femininity: being emotionally manipulative (such as by crying to get sympathy), expecting men to always pay for you. What is NOT toxic femininity: enjoying stereotypically feminine things, being comfortable in your identity as a woman.
There. This isn't about erasing manhood, this isn't about not letting men be men, but rather about erasing gender stereotypes which are redundant at best, dangerous at worst.

"suck my toxic cock" I love how he just admitted he's toxic.
Or maybe he just fucks so many toxic people that his dick is now toxic too.
Either way, congratulations, you played yourself.
