So facism is mens fault? I wonder how that effects a young man who isnt a facist while they are developing? Ur narrative is actively harming young men and driving them to be the very thing u swore to drstroy.

No, it's not "men's" fault, but the people who's fault it is are primarily men. That's not an opinion, that's just history, not to mention what's happening before our eyes. Even women who are fascist push patriarchy. There is no point in debating whether fascism is primarily a male driven phenomenon. The only legitimate question is why?

[-] TheDoctor@hexbear.net 13 points 1 month ago

This is insulting as fuck. I grew up as a boy with plenty of reactionary beliefs because patriarchy is a fucking prison. And as I got older and got called out for it, you know what I didn’t do? Become a fucking fascist. I wasn’t pushed towards fascism. I was already reactionary and fascism would have required less work of me. That’s not the same thing. And it lets people off the hook to suggest otherwise.

Ok so ur smart enough not to be a fascist congratulations for achieving the bare minimum. Do u think most people are bright enough to go "ohhh yeah fascism is my fault because of the gender i was born i shall apologise for my genders ancestors actions" or do they go "no fuck you and fuck everything you stand for"?

[-] frauddogg@hexbear.net 9 points 1 month ago

ohhh yeah fascism is my fault

I mean if the shoe fits

because of the gender i was born

it's this aggrieved "wah poor me for being born a man" shit that makes people disregard your bullshit in the first place. whatever happened to masculinity being defined by setting your jaw, gritting your teeth, and fixing your own fuckeries before they could adversely harm your surroundings?

i shall apologise for my genders ancestors actions

literally the bare fucking minimum a cracker could do and you phrase it like it's an impossible fucking pipe dream. and you wonder why people disregard and avoid bullshit peddlers like you.

christ, our species is cooked if you're an example of the kind of man the future has to look forward to

[-] Tinidril@midwest.social 4 points 1 month ago

Did someone ask all men to apologize for something?

[-] Tinidril@midwest.social 1 points 1 month ago

How is it insulting? I didn't say it was you. Fascism is a social phenomenon driven almost entirely by men. That doesn't mean all men are fascists, or that there is something wrong with masculinity. It's about certain men in certain situations reacting in what is an entirely predictable way. It is perhaps an insult to fascist men, but I'm comfortable insulting them.

[-] TheDoctor@hexbear.net 2 points 1 month ago

I wasn’t insulted by what you said and I’m not a man

[-] Chuymatt@beehaw.org 9 points 1 month ago

Your misconstruing the statement. Fascism is a way for insecure men to feel powerful. These men are feeling insecure due to lack of job prospects, lack of honest to God to physical insecurity, and that also makes them less desirable to potential mates.

The way to protect against fascism is to ensure proper addressing of Maslow‘s-goddamn-hierarchy of needs. Endstage, capitalism leads to fascism, but it has to secure itself in spreading racism and sexism.

I knew it as soon as I read your ‘Tate is right’ bullshit.

So facism is mens fault?

Yes. Men had all the political power in the countries that turned to fascism in the past. If you knew any history this would be obvious.

I wonder how that effects a young man who isnt a facist while they are developing?

The same way that one woman having an abortion harms another woman; not at all.

Ur narrative is actively harming young men and driving them to be the very thing u swore to drstroy.

It’s room temperature IQ weakling reactionaries like you that are harming young men. Real men stand against fascists.

[-] Sidyctism2@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 1 month ago

Yes. Men had all the political power in the countries ~~that turned to fascism in the past~~. If you knew any history this would be obvious.

this is kind of meaningless to point out, since men also had the power in every country that turned towards socialism, gave or took away rights, started and ended wars, etc.

[-] feedum_sneedson@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

The only possible explanation for any of this is that men are bad and we should definitely not examine the underlying causes and material conditions at all.

[-] muntedcrocodile@lemm.ee 0 points 1 month ago

Great idea im sure them killing themselves at record rates must be an anomoly.

[-] feedum_sneedson@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Well, you can prove anything with facts.
