Men's Rights Movement

[GUBU]

men's rights/women's rights/black rights... e.t.c all start with valid reasons and noble intentions, but in due time all of them forget the concept of equality and devolve into the same "look-at-me-I-am-the-biggest-victim" movement.

If you look at the "mens' rights" movement it started out as a "get women chained back to the stove" movement and went downhill from there. From the start it was populated wit misogynistic neo-nazis.

As a man who never had to experience the disadvantages and deprivation of rights as women have, I can afford to think about the disadvantages both men and women go through in an equal manner. If some women cant, thats their struggle, not mine or feminists in general.

When they make up a large portion of feminists, it's a general problem.

I see that line being peddled in the right wing media about a lot of different groups, inflating the importance of fringe ideologies that have little traction or influence in reality to make them look the dominant factor (a political examle is the demonising of the slightly soc-dem Jeremy Corbyn as a Trot in British papers). Unfortunately the dominance of the right in the media gives reasonable people the idea that reasonable ideas are wrong and evil (incidentally it also gives a veneer of centrism to the currently dominant far-right economic theories).
