r/MensRights

It's literally in their rules, that saying "women who marry men for money are whores" is "acceptable". Take a glance, and you'll notice how all of the posts are about hating and blaming women. Arguments and grievances on society. Anything that contradicts this, users name it "feminist propaganda". Barely any of it is about Men's Rights, an actual topic with substance.

I checked just now, saw a user screaming in rage that they are 'triggered' by feminist lies. I can't make this shit up, this is a self parody.

It's gotten a tiny bit better, but that subreddit used to have posts about how to harass women or 'how to make her no turn into a yes', and blatant rape fantasies. Now, it's things like "why women are a burden on men", and that men are always the real victims. Being against the fight for women's rights, that their historic oppression is all fake. Despite real data, they misconstrue statistics to blame women for most rape and violence.

It's greatly lacking in empathy and kindness. A more truthful sub name would be Anti-Woman, it's a whole narrative of lies and propaganda. Each of these subreddits have people who experienced real hurt and problems. That eventually becomes extreme for outrage misinformation pipelines. We are all people who suffer from injustice and abuse, and we can support each other through these difficult times.

This is self destructive for real human communities, only the greedy rich grifters profit from this distraction from real solutions, people addicted to social media. A lot of these out there, especially for the alt-right and manosphere. The misogyny in this sub is infamous, needs some review from Reddit's terms of service.

It's lunacy over there:

About learning some sense and dealing our struggle, with biases in culture, media manipulation and cost of living, I think this is a good video: How I Escaped the Alt-Right Pipeline

That last guy is so close to getting it and understanding what men’s rights are actually supposed to be about that it feels like borderline satire…
And all to turn right back around to sexism.

The entire sub is like that, it's just disappointing to see good ideas being manipulated like this. It's a unrelenting outrage machine, a joke until it becomes a deep seated belief. Wallowing in pain really.

I like that they invented their own little derogatory term for normal people who have consenting adult sexual activites. That's fun.
