. I'm not from the first world. I'm in "the other camp" and I post stuff like that. But I don't actually mean I celebrate people's death as long as they are white and want to genocide the first world, it's just a statement against imperialism, just like "kill all men" is a statement against the patriarchy.
Metaphorically we could argue that we need to kill the "man" inside all cis men, meaning deleting all the internalised patriarchal education.
further explaining
Some would say "but there are good things about masculinity! Like being strong and stuff!" but if a genuinely good thing is associated with masculinity then it's something patriarchy stole to non-masc people and they should to take it back. Physical strength is cool and good, women are stigmatized for getting stronger because physical strength is associated with masculinity, so we need to end this and let women get stronger. Cismasculinity should be defined as everything wrong with the cis men demographic, because everything that is right isn't to be gatekept by them.In that sense, yes the man inside is to be killed, which doesn't mean all cis men should stop being strong, they will simply stop being seen as comparatively stronger as non-masc people catch up on that field
Typing my rant I realise I have a blind spot about trans men and how they express masculinity so if anyone is willing to provide their perspective that would be great!
