I mean, you just pushed a ridiculous - and completely, stupidly untrue - myth about the left hating men, and then pretended to be a leftist to lend supposed credibility to that absurdity. What did you expect in response? A bunch of left-leaning men - like me - going, “Y’know, it’s true, I totally hate men” or something?
There’s definitely a subset of people on the left who are outright hostile to men in general… but they’re a barely vocal minority. Anyone who leans right because of them was already halfway there, and was just using them as an excuse to dive headfirst instead of dipping a toe in.
Even if that were true, what does that accomplish other than continuing a cycle of increasingly volatile reactionary aggression? Why not be the bigger person, unless you don’t actually want to better society and just want to be “right”.
I think it has to do with the fact that the left is actively hostile towards men, to the point where men go conservative.
It’s one of those “it hurt itself in its confusion” type situations, and that’s coming from a leftist.
That has some strong “fellow kids” vibes.
“As a black man…”
Thanks. Real constructive.

I mean I see no reason not to paint the left with a broad brush based on their worst considering they’re chomping at the bit to do the same.

Because being the bigger person accomplishes exactly fucking nothing.
You should think harder next time.
About what? About the sky high rate of male suicide, or the high rate of males going into far right ideology?
I’m a man and a leftist.
Wtf are you talking about lol. The left isn’t hostile towards men. They just aren’t hostile towards women, poc, lgbtq+, etc like the right are.
