Still no
What did you mean by that comment, If not what was said.
That saying "men are trash" is meant to describe a problem and the perpetuators, not to fix it.
So it's only racist or sexist if it's inherently done by the government?
No.
Systematic racism don't means that government are racist. It means that we live in a society where we are englued in sexist bias. It a millions of little things but each things added up ends up creating an oppression. Ending racism is not as easy as replacing the government, it goes deeper than that. We need hard structural changes in different stratus of the societies.
In your attempt to like disavow white racism or male sexism, You created a internal logic which wouldt account individual people who themselves are racist
oh boi.. i know where this is going..
you seemed to frame it as a necessary evil
No, I said that misandry as an act of ideological anger can be necessary to help women express their voice without walls. But the only act of mysandry that is "legitimate" is ideological anger, nothing more.
And i'm not "unsure" of myself.
Misandry as anger against the men is completely legitimate in our society. I myself am sometime VERY angry against men in general for the same reasons. For example, when I see you deligitimizing feminist struggles.. damn...I'm itchy
You didt answer on what was the tangible goal to be had
If you want some objectif here are some:
Step 0:
GOAL: Finding a way to bypass anti-leftist organism and structure
APPLYING: ....????... Occupy the space as much as we can.. maybe create a decentralized twitter free of missinformation.. create our own spaces and safe spaces...
RESULT: The left finally has a strong voice.
Step 1:
GOAL: Shifting the overton windows a bit to the left.
APPLYING: Occupy the political debate with leftist rhetoric. End the far right moral panics with political critical thinking : "woke" "SJW" "hating men women" "BLM" "Antifa"
RESULT: More political thinking, the far right has less voice in the political and social debate, the overton windows starts to shift left.
Step 2:
GOAL: Creating attrativity for the left while lessering individual sexism (it's the easiest social struggle to work on in the beginning).
APPLYING: Deconstruct male behavior of leftist and "center" individuals and create a more positive masculinity while not forgetting to place that deconstruction into a political spectrum. Increase the visibility of that deconstruction and it's positive effect on men.
RESULT: More allies in the cause of women right, less toxicity in left side of society, happier men and happier women in the left political spectrum. Meaning also more attractibility for the left and it's logics (antiracism/anticapitalism)
Step 3:
GOAL: Putting the left in governments
APPLYING: Unifying leftist movements, ending the sission between old school leftist and more progressive movment. Making sure everyone understands that only in the convergeance of struggle will victory will arrive. Continuing to attract apolitical with more critical thinking, more pedagogy on sociology, on science and economy. Making sure the movements are anti-liberals.
RESULT: A STRONG left is created all over the world. Now the liberals have no choice but to shift right, making their rhetoric less and less attrative to a documented audience. AFter all that, maybe just MAYBE we can put a REAL leftist party in command. (it can also arrives in reactance to a far right wing party)
Now, you have the left in command.. you have a strong anti-liberal movement.. young and old folks fully in understanding of social issues, you can now start applying social laws. The liberals are now the right wing, the Far right is out of the windows once against and Nazis are SCARED once again.
RESULT: Less oppressions, less sexism in society, more awareness for inequities, more equality.
Now.. the antiracist movements can start moving... followed by the anticapitalist ones, the antifascist, and finally some far left movement.. sky is the limit.
Repeat the cycle and continue moving the overton windows to the left by occupying space.
I don't know.. this is just an idea..
You are telling me that it's bad to stay neutral and that im to evaluate my potential biases
The CURRENT far right (everything at the right side of biden) doesn't fight fair, they use missinformation. It's part of their business plan. Without it, they can't exist. So if you keep informing yourself with the right wing, your are doomed to be trapped under their their claws.
Their goal is to create moral panic and twisting of information to make sure the overton windows leans right.
That's why you can't trust the current right to inform yourself and the "apolitical" who choose to "listen and give a voice to everyone" (Joe Rogan being one of the biggest example)
Critical thinking doesn't mean that you need to listen to all point of view. It means that you need to listen where the REAL information is. Right now, I would say: Scientists, researchers. And even their, you need to go for the consensus. Not some rando with a medical degree that say that Climate change is not real.
And because the Brandolini law exist, speaking with the far right is almost ALWAYS a doomed process.
men are the problem answer
In absolute, Men are not the problem they are A problem. There are a lots of problems.
You are very quick to see men as the badguy
Again, having bias doesn't make you a bad guy.
you would justifiably call me out
Because women have those bias in a MUCH lesser degree. And yeah, calling woman bad, in the context of an oppressive society against woman is sexist.
I said racists but they would fit that bill too
white supremacist are racist.
I just treat women like any other person say hello or whatever yknow
That the problem. By not understanding that you have bias, you are doomed to repeat toxic behavior toward women without even being aware of it.
Sometimes you can have a bad day or whatever maybe your dog died or whatever but overall you should try to stay civil and nice no purpose or function in mindlessly pissing off every single person in the vicinity
Understanding your sexist bias doesn't only mean that you become "polite", it also mean that you don't reproduce sexist or toxic behaviors.
I even said not saying and then said in a general sense why are you responding to me in a way that's implying the exact opposite of what was stated by me
Well that not what I understood, but I might be wrong.
