Well that's honestly heart warming.

I can't super tell if you are trying to fact check, debunk or simply trying to give more info about the topic, so forgive if this sounds curt. But I can assure that this is the situation and she spoke to lawyers trying to get it discharged. I'm not about to ask her for more details because obviously this is an emotional subject, but what I've already posted is my understanding of the events and timeline. Idk what else to say.

Destroying Twitter was Elons plan for the get go. If he just closed the doors a year ago there would be outrage, now people are begging for it to die. Musk is still a moron, but all the Saudi money he got to buy Twitter was used to destroy the biggest platform of their critics.

They were married.

I envy you. My partner is still paying off the attempted life saving medical efforts from their passed previous partner. Been almost a decade but here she is, still making monthly payments.

It's somber and introspective with solid music throughout. I enjoyed .hack//sign more than anything else in the series.

Less meme, more propaganda.

Found the v... person paying attention.

Well the HER sequel is going to some fun places.

You deserve a /hug for trying! ♥ 💕 🤗

Tragic, but unsurprising.

and never once in my entire life have I ever met someone who talks like anyone from that subculture.

Then by your own word, you are the one who does not have experience with this topic. If you truly do not know men like this, then why comment after reading OP's post?

I can tell you for a fact that both sons and daughters are abused by both mothers and fathers at very high rates.

"High rates" is a misrepresentation of the data. Of COURSE everyone can suffer at the hands of abusers, but without the context that women statistically suffer violence more often then men twists that fact of child abuse in to a distraction of reality. But that's not even what OP was talking about and I wish you would stop trying to distract from her point with it. (I also wish you would not put up those flawed gatekeeping, I'm not about to go in to my own history, but honestly, how dare you just suppose I have no experience working with trauma)

Of course not all men are MGTOW, that was never what I was saying. What I am trying to tell you is that the types of groups that adhere to mysgontic tropes (anti-woke, incels, red pill, MRA and the entire manosphere) greatly outnumber Mens Liberation groups that actually address patriarchy in a healthy productive way for the men involved. Toxic masculinity does not deal with depression, emotionality or fostering friendships like OP was talking about, but they ARE the most prevalent. The solution to this inherently has to come from men spaces, but more often than not red pill nonsense is what is promoted. This isn't something that women can fix, its something that men truly interested in helping do for other men struggling with mental health can fix by promoting other spaces aside from the manosphere. It's just not as common.

Like I said from the very start, you are so quick to "not all men" that you breezed right past the topic that was being brought up.

Like I said... You are missing the point.

Men and women both suffer at the hands of patriarchy. Women's spaces are built around ensuring physical safety, while men's spaces are built upon complaining about how women ruined their lives. Take the "men go their own way" movement, they don't encourage open emotionality, they complain feminism ruined the good old days. This does nothing to help them or the larger issues. Men need to address and dismantle patriarchal norms and take steps away from toxic masculinity, to healthier ways to interact with the world. Not just to benefit women, but for their own sake.

The fact that men and women can both suffer trauma, childhood and substance abuse is irrelevant to the point.

It's not just one sentence, your entire post was about things that can happen to men and women while ignoring OPs thread about the unique problems women face under patriarchy.

You are so focused on that "not all men" correction that you missing the entire point of what OP is saying. Call it stereotypes, but she is right on how women's groups exist to foster feelings of safety, while "Men go their own way" are far more mysgonstic than they are trying to dismantle the taboo of men being emotionally open.

💯 💯 💯 💯 💯

Honestly this thread, full of men going "Not all men do violence" really misses the point that existing as a woman runs the risk of violence. This post isn't calling out you specifically sweetie, it's how men and women both suffer under patriarchy in different ways, just not equivalent ways. Male emotionality is taboo, but that isnt the same issue as trying to feel safe from violence. Both of these issues are caused by a culture that has always assumed men as a complete person, but had to argued in treating women the same.

It sorta is, but it shouldn't be. So it's worth mocking and critiquing every time it rears it's ugly head.

Posting this sort of junior high... "joke" is a self burn. Like, what is funny? Where is the punchline exactly? That you saw women complaining so you decided to be crass like an idiot?

Well good job. We think you're an idiot. Congrats? Mission accomplished?
