An actual PTB in YPTB.

Yep, looks like you hurt a mod in their feelings.

Yes? I made that pretty clear.

People can feel whatever they want, yes. If those feelings lead to hurting another group out of revenge, it’s not feminism. Human rights are not a limited resource.

If you believe in undertaking revenge against men because misogyny exists, I don’t want to engage in that conversation. It’s not going to be productive for either of us.

I get the impression you don’t read things before responding to them.

We’re not taking about simple incompetence anymore. It’s another kind of ignorance entirely to receive a mild correction for fucking up — in this case having a few comments removed, misrepresent the situation to strangers for validation, and choose to be ignorant despite all attempts to explain the fuck up.

I don’t know how you think that supports your argument.

The meme says he was a nazi propaganda journalist who supported the genocide and was convicted at Nuremberg, which is true. A situation that is no where near the same thing as hanging the opposition journalists when governments change, a tasteless statement to make regardless of what you knew about Streicher.

Maybe this is a lesson to learn about things before saying stuff? Or, at least just accept you made a mistake and move on.

It was a great statement to make.

Don’t have to know shit, no. People don’t have to give you the benefit of the doubt if you don’t want to be informed, either.

It’s on you to figure out what you’re talking about before you comment.

At face value it looks like someone comparing the Nuremberg trials to punishing a political opposition.

I couldn’t find the post you commented on because it was removed, but I think it was the one about Julius Streicher.

If it was, then… The hanging of Julius fucking Streicher after his conviction at Nuremberg is a little goddamn different from hanging journalists who don’t politically align with the current government.

I agree with the mod.

This is wrong on so many levels you have to be trolling.

The women’s liberation movement was a feminist movement. Feminism is the ideology behind women’s liberation, and has never been about attacking men or women. The people who claim they’re feminists but strive for equality by stepping on someone’s back are not following feminist ideology.

Now, feminism is more focused on intersectionality than it has ever been, working toward equality across age, race, gender, nationality, religion and ability. There has never been a feminist movement that took into account the issues men face under a patriarchy as much as modern day feminism.

Where do they call you a transphobe? They removed your comment for misandry. Admittedly, your point is a little difficult to understand.

It looks like you said misandry doesn’t exist, and by extension trans men can’t face misandry because it doesn’t exist.

Misandry, as a term, has a fucked up past and is too often used against feminists, but evidence indicates prejudice against men in select situations and careers. It’s no where near the scale of institutionalized misogyny, but to deny men can be descriminated against on the basis of sex at all is incorrect.

Examples of systemic misandry include longer prison sentences for the same crimes, or the lack of recognition for male rape victims, including laws that state only men can be rapists.

I can see why denying misandry would be taken down.

I enjoy reading their comments too. I don’t often agree and they’re not always perfect in an argument, but they are often informative.

People gotta start upvoting for entertaining posts. This one is getting lots of engagement.

Looks like a few posts with some decent points and like thirty messages of arguing about the argument where it gets so meta I can’t even tell who’s arguing what.

I donno if it deserved a ban but I could see a mod wanting to shut it down.

And jesus christ, you’re still fighting about the bolding here? Everyone involved sucks.

You chose to tell the joke the way you did. I hear lots of bad jokes I don’t repeat.

Love it when people respond to say they don’t care, and continue to defend themselves. Audience and context are important in writing and telling jokes, a good comedian doesn’t blame their audience for not laughing.

I don’t know know what supporting jesuits has to do with not being able to tell a joke.

Here’s the comment string.

I can see why the mod was pissed. You misunderstood the community and were an asshole to the mod about it.

And yet I’m still saying there is historical context for thinking the joke is misogynist.

Didn’t say that it is, didn’t say it’s intended to be (see: “read into”,) but that there is context for believing it is.

There isn’t a historical context for thinking a joke about hitting a woman is misogynist?
