          I knew someone from one of the misandry instances would chime in to prove my point, so thanks! ^_^

            Hey you did it again! You took a single person from an entire instance and assumed they represent the entirety of a group.

            I knew misogynist @hakase@lemmy.zip wouldn’t disappoint with more logical fallacies :)

            I presume since you’re so fundamentally opposed to feminism and gender equality that the label misogynist is accurate.

            You haven’t really proven anything. You say misandry is the problem with being a raging feminist. All I said was hating people who oppress you is not a bad thing. Also one of the “misandry instances”? So are all queer or women oriented instances just misandrist to you?

              They’re not “just” misandrist; that is to say, they definitely have good reasons for existing outside of misandry, and I’m glad that they can provide that space for the people who need it. It’s also certainly not inherently misandrist to be queer or woman oriented.

              In the case of Lemmy, though, yes, all of the queer and women oriented instances are very clearly also misandrist. Openly and proudly so, in fact. Your comments here are an excellent, though comparatively mild, example of that.

        One can be a raging feminist without being a misandrist quite easily.

        In fact it’s a core belief of feminism that all the genders are equal.

          Of course, but with some more equal than others, of course, as my (female) boss demonstrated earlier this week. She insisted that feminists had proven that women govern better than men can, and that if we would just replace all men in power with women the US’s problems would practically solve themselves.

          Feminists truly are beacons of equality.

            Yeah your single (female) boss represents all feminists and the feminist movement.

            Great detective work there.

              You could have listened to me, sympathized, and told me my misandrist experience is valid, but, then again, that’s a privilege reserved for women experiencing misogyny, isn’t it? Wouldn’t be very feminist of you to acknowledge just how widespread misandry is among feminists, eh?

                    It’s a logical fallacy to take a single person and assume an entire movement based on her views alone.

          Yeah. I often wonder how many people who attempt to hijack a movement actually believe their singular view of what it should be should be the universal, how much of it is just ignorant ego and an attempt to remain relevant (looking at you JK), and how often it’s a deliberate attempt to both discredit one cause while tearing down another.
