Why so many "anti-feminists" in the atheist community?

Not all the new people of course, but, again, a loud minority...

There's an opening.

Engaging peeps like that'll just have the whole forum breathing toxicity, and ends up feeling like it's putting <the given person> in the spotlight. Railing on someone you find disruptive further exacerbates that disruption... and hardly provides relief to an already probably emotional person, which then leads them to cause further things that you'd probably consider disruptive.

I don't see the purpose in egging someone on and on and on and on until they finally do something bad enough that we'll ban them... for effectively being unpopular, because so many more popular people are doing the exact same thing. It becomes impossible to tell who provoked who after a certain point... I'd be inclined to wash it (the whole damn event).

Just tired of seeing people complain about this guy... in the same breath as they provoke him further and themselves create the very disruption they dislike from this guy. Especially when they *out of the blue* say things like this which are really unwarranted and which are strictly provocative.

Boggles the friggin mind. Someone might think that people like causing explosions. Kindly desist. You all have the feature to 'ignore' people... if a person is causing you THIS MUCH consternation that you just feel you have to GIVE IT BACK:

Please. For the love of Judas Iscariot. Use that feature. And move on.

This kind of crap is NOT helping. It's getting old. It's a pattern. And it's poison. It's also generally calling out, flaming, and just straight bullying (for anyone that cares)... just because someone is unpopular doesn't give anyone a free pass to bend and break the forum rules. Enough. Is enough. This is getting ridiculous.

....

Now lets get back to arguing over literally everything else under the sun~ Tiger

Don't what?

Ask a relevant question?

Contribute to "the problem".

Kindly. Desist.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
