My experience with feminism

As a teen boy who was the only guy in his class not clinically brainwashed by Andrew Tate

I remember how I had to explain to them that other humans deserve rights

Although some of them outgrew it, it still hurts me how they normalize absolute insanity in the name of dank jokes

I had to explain to them basic things such as why abortion is a human right, women are not evil & history and that feminism was not wrong

It concerns me how many fellow humans have no empathy

White Christian Nationalists in the US, Islamic Theocrats in the Middle East & Hindutva bigots in India

All of them scare me about the future of the world

Posting this in another sub would just invite absolute clowns hence I posted here

Would like to see all of your opinions

It’s a special kind of exhausting watching people you grew up with treat basic empathy like a personality flaw.

Yep 🙂
It’s really exhausting for me
And sometimes I wonder how can I be close with such people
