Ah yes, because calling all men rapists and dangerous is not offensive and angry. Have you ever attempted to touch grass?

He straight up didn't call all men rapists and dangerous, he said:

I feel like women have every right to just give up on us men

I feel like I'd give up on eating pasta if one out of every ten had a big shard of glass in it. Doesn't take every one having a shard of glass.

The bear isn't 1 out of 10. It's 5 out of 10. Conservative estimate.

Yet, because of your talking point which implies that men are worse than bears, due to the implicit argument you're conveniently ignoring about some men being rapists (1 out of 10, remember?), you'd pick 50/50 odds of literally dying.

It's just a misandrist talking point. Not rational. Purely emotional and made to create dissent and division. It's inherently offensive to the 9/10 other, innocent men lumped in with the choice.

The typical crack back is that if you're offended, you're somehow part of the problem, a typical manipulation technique just to shut up opposition, because it's not saying anything, just pointing fingers.

This whole thing is a big joke at the expense of men all over.

Dude you have told people to touch grass and you think running into a black bear means you have a 50/50 chance of dying? Bwahahaha. Why yes, I'd rather startle a black bear than be alone in the woods with a guy.

Touch -and I can not emphasize this enough: Grass.

As we all know women have a "this dude is a rapist" detector and "this dude is an abuser" detector, where we can easily distinguish between men who are threats and men who aren't. Rape and DV only happen when we are waiting for the detectors to get back from regular maintenance or repair.

I didn't say black bear. Try polar bear for odds? I just took the combined bear odds. You're just an idiotic troll.

Funny extra, notice how you only focus on the worst men, and the best bear. Almost like your argument would fall apart otherwise

[-] OurToothbrush@lemmy.ml 5 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Lmao it is incredibly unlikely to run into a polar bear in the mainland US. Much less likely than running into a violent man.

Nah we are talking averages and uncertainty that exists in a low information scenario.

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

I think I’ll take my chances with the bear over you specifically. I know it won’t lecture me for getting away from it

[-] terminally_offline@infosec.pub -1 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

You getting away from a bear? Lmao.

Unless you're Usain Bolt and it's a sloth bear. Get a grip on reality, misandrist.

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

Oh my god I’m so sorry sir please tell me how my entire gender is always wrong about you specifically! And about our local wildlife. I definitely haven’t spent my entire childhood taught how to avoid bear attacks (and man attacks, but for some reason those lessons went on past childhood). I definitely just assumed I’d run instead of do what I was taught to do when hiking as a kid.

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Also you ever notice how misandrists want to avoid men, but misogynists want to subjugate women?

[-] terminally_offline@infosec.pub -2 points 5 months ago

You don't want to avoid men, you're actively going to internet forums and insulting all men. That's not avoidance, it's misandry.

[-] terminally_offline@infosec.pub -2 points 5 months ago

Strawman goes brrr. You really don't want to acknowledge that there is no getting away from a bear that wants to catch you lmao.

Also, make me laugh, subjugate women? By wanting them to acknowledge that picking "bear" is offensive to 99% of the population? You're just avoiding the topic by putting all these words in my mouth because you know you're a misandrist at heart and that would destroy your "argument".

[-] njm1314@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

Wow really steering into that skid there buddy.

[-] terminally_offline@infosec.pub -4 points 5 months ago

What even is the bear argument if not that? In fact I've seen that written multiple times as the justification.

[-] njm1314@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

So obsessed with that bear thing, yet still hasn't gotten the point of it yet. Wow.

[-] OurToothbrush@lemmy.ml 3 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

It would require putting himself in the headspace of women. And listening and empathizing with women. Completely unviable for him at this point in time, and will continue to be so long as he values protecting his own fragile masculine position over genuine human connection

[-] terminally_offline@infosec.pub -1 points 5 months ago

Misandry is not genuine human connection lmao.

[-] terminally_offline@infosec.pub -2 points 5 months ago

Oh yes I got the insult, thank you very much.

[-] terminally_offline@infosec.pub -1 points 5 months ago

As long as you keep repeating your power fantasy that all men are below you and disgusting somehow, and expecting all men to shut up and take it...

No matter what I say that disagrees with your power play, you'll say I'm missing the point lmao. Grow the fuck up.
