You don't hear them saying "a lot of men..." They just say "men..."

Like, get it right and the argument dies...

none of these arguments are new, this post is literal lazy rehashed bait from other social media

making this about my acceptance when ive literally done nothing wrong is lol

more so when the OP started making baseless claims on my character when i replied to them the same way i am here

their behavior proved my point ad nauseum regardless of what they claim but im sure your arguing in good faith

And yet this keeps happening over and over and over again.

Over 90% of sexual assault and rape perpetrators never see the inside of a jail cell.

People are rightfully angry about this issue.

Eh once I saw who posted it it all made sense. Rage bait is their thing.

Better than all those rape and pedophile jokes I was first introduced to here when I joined.

figures with how they immediately jumped to implying I was a sexual predator for calling them out

Asking why you’re so offended on behalf of rapists isn’t quite accusing you of being one, it’s just very interesting that you feel defensive about this.

I mean, they could have the best intentions, not sure but they definitely want to showcase how virtuous they are and if you don't agree lockstep you're on their shitlist and are terrible. Called them out once and they snapped back instead of reflecting on anything. Basically their status is more important than any message they are trying to convey.

I've blocked them. It's not worth the hassle.

I'm not open to debating whether women deserve rights.

[–] baines@lemmy.cafe 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

yea that is textbook purity test level bullshit

far better to just block and move on

[–] velma@sh.itjust.works 5 points 4 days ago

God forbid anyone purity test to weed out rapists and rapist sympathizers.
