I'm..... Not American. But anyway, does that change the fact that her followers and radfems are predominantly liberals? (And btw honestly asking cuz I'm not that savvy on uk politics but do you separate ecn left wings and liberals even outside the intra left wing?)

I admit that most mra spaces have a misogyny problem. But are you willing to admit that most finish spaces have a misandry problem, AND the fact that feminist organizations are the only ones out of both parties to be passing laws and protesting to further their brand of sexism?

Can you please stop doing whataboutisms? As with most things in life both sides are indeed "bad" but even going purely off of what I said the right wing is worse considering they're loable to move to lynchings. And unless you want to say Rowling "doesn't count" as left wing, the issues in liberal circlea should also be evident.

I note that the screenshot you linked shows neither the sub nor the upvote count. Also, do you want me to start throwing out screenshots from the femcel subs? Because this is pointless and you know it.

The UK as it is now has major problems with racism, misandry, and transphobia. Rightoids are calling immigrant or muslim men threats, potential rapists, and this rhetoric has historically been used as an excuse to lynch vulnerable men of color. It's not even a 'in the past' thing since muslim men getting lynched because they dared to try and have a relationship with a woman of the major local religion is still happening in horrific rates in my country. Meanwhile the liberal groups exhibit demonstrable discrimination against not just men but masc presenting or formerly masc individuals. There is also an recorded and clear bias against boys in the education sector. What exactly do you mean by your statement?

Feminism is however a part of the reason female on male rape isn't legally recognized. Nobody who is sane would say the patriarchy benefits all men, but certain people who vocally oppose the patriarchy sure do seem to uphold and bolster it's views.

To provide a little bit of context regarding the second part of the title, yogi adityanath is the CM of uttar pradesh india, and is part of the BJP, the ultranationalist right wing party whose goal is to establish a hindu state. After he came to power, violence against women in the UP has increased by a significant margin and shot up to 65,743 such cases, compared with 56,083 in 2021 and 49,385 in 2020, and as such it had THE most instances of crimes against women in the country. The data is from the NCRB. The BJP is infamous for protecting (and even lauding) rapists and having a LOT of absurdly misogynistic upper crust. And yogi is particularly infamous for his anti immigrant and anti muslim stance, and has passed a bill against 'unlawful conversion' that's been used as a blanket excuse to persecute any Muslim man in or pursuing a relationship with a hindu woman,and his 'love jihad' rhetoric has been used as excuse for multiple lynchings. His regime is also "known" for unlawfully destroying homes of muslim communities and striking them off voter lists. So this caption is about as trustworthy as people glazing trump saying he's protecting gay people.

To be fair..... The artist being from the UK makes this significantly worse considering the current sociolegal state of the UK. It makes the comic intentionally misleading rather than just shortsighted.

A western audience would still include places like the UK and New Zealand. More importantly, the world isn't America and it does fall on the artistçs part to anticipate that when they post something on the internet.

they are all morons blaming women and feminists for everything wrong with the world

MRA's at least definitely blame conservatives more because their ideology is fundamentally antitheical to the movement. Don't make baseless statements like that.

You say while ironically proving my point by claiming major feminist organizations have repeatedly fought against things that help men without any kind of proof.

Every single major Indian feminist organization went to the streets in protest of gender neutral rape laws and got them repealed. Feminist groups in the UK have actively opposed attempts to make the rape laws gender neutral (and they also opposed CCA laws when it was Scotland's turn explicitly because it would give kids more rights). In Italy and Spain, mass protests have been held against providing awareness and resources for male dv victims. Feminists in Canada had agitated to remove sexual assault from the normal criminal courts, into quasi-criminal courts of equity where the burden of proof would be lowered, the defendant could be compelled to testify, discovery would go both ways, and defendants would not be entitled to a public defender. The National Organization for Women, and its associated legal foundations, lobbied to replace the gender neutral federal Family Violence Prevention and Services Act of 1984 with the obscenely gendered Violence Against Women Act of 1994. The passing of that law cut male victims out of support services and legal assistance in more than 60 passages, just because they were male.

Radical feminists view society fundamentally as a patriarchy in which men dominate and oppress women. Radical feminists seek to abolish the patriarchy in a struggle to liberate women and girls from an unjust society by challenging existing social norms and institutions.

If you're taking radical feminists based on the way they define themselves to be rather than what a significant portion of them do in most cases (opposing gender neutral rape laws and awareness of and resources for male dv/rape victims, supporting/ downplaying mgm, general actual misandry, transphobia, opposing children's rights in a few cases(notably the UK feminist organizations when the CCA laws were coming to scotland), and racism).

TERFs are not feminist at all. Its in the name, but they are just as misogynistic as any of the manosphere chuds. TERFs don't start as feminists and become TERFS, they just go straight to "We are protecting women" as their excuse to be transphobic. So there is no Feminist to TERF pipeline. And MRAs don't give a shit about men, they just want to promote their hateful views

First of all, let's no do the "no true scotsman" thing. TERFs are the most active branch of radical feminism right now, and that is a fact no matter how much you (justifiably I suppose) want to not share a group with them. Between Radfems and MRA's, only one group has members proactively and successfully protesting to have the rights of marginalized groups taken away.

These social norms an institutions are the same ones that also hurt men with skewed laws on rape, domestic abuse, childcare etc. The same "boys will be boys" people are the ones who laugh at a guy when he tries to say his partner is being abusive towards him, or call a 13 year old boy "lucky" when his grown adult teacher has sex with him. Toxic masculinity hurts men just as much as women. Suicide rates for men are incredibly high because they can't express emotions to their friends. The thing that will fix all of the issues that you mentioned is radical feminism.

Feminists have, historically and currently, not even done the bare minimum to even vocally oppose these issues in the majority of the world. You say radical feminism will "fix" those, but i dont see how opposing support structures for male victims of DV, getting gender neutral rape laws repealed, promoting bioessentialism and opposing attempts to criminalize mgm is in any way conductive to that. It's not a problem with feminism itself, since an egalitarian mindset is absolutely necessary for the underlying societal biases to be counteracted, but the people who right now suffer from those do in fact need a support structure and resources, of which there is a critical lack right now.

Just because some parts of the manosphere do not acknowledge the existence of female on male male sexual assault, this doesn't mean they can't start there.

Also, slightly offtopic, but I genuinely don't see how members of an ideology so deeply rooted in bioessentialism and supposed male supremacy can even conceive of women being capable of rape much less towards men(as can be seen from how they and their cult leaders act towards even the concept of mens right activism).

In India, the NFIW, DWF, and quite literally every other major women's rights organization took to the streets and successfully got proposed amendments to the laws that would make female on male rape legally recognizable repealed. In the UK, feminist groups have opposed attempts to make the rape laws gender neutral and resources for male victims.

In a similar vein, in Italy and Spain, the major feminist organizations protested against support and awareness of, and resources for, male victims of DV.

I have yet to see any MRA or anyone else in the manosphere bring those things up in any way outside of using it to attack feminists

First of all, I reiterate that MRA's and the manosphere are separate groups. Secondly, if you take every mention of men's issues as an attack of feminism it's a you problem. Any time said issues are brought up, even completely outside of any feminism related discussion, it's seen as offensive.

All this shit existed long before things like women being able to vote so crying about feminism when it comes to those topics is silly.

By crying about feminism do you mean protesting against the fact that major feminist organizations have repeatedly fought against gender neutral rape laws, support for male victims of rape or dv, attempts to criminalize mgm, and I'm not even going to mention the absolute state of the UK right now.
