  • "The real damage is done by those millions who want to 'survive.' The honest men who just want to be left in peace. Those who don't want their little lives disturbed by anything bigger than themselves. Those with no sides and no causes. Those who don't like to make waves--or enemies." -Sophie Scholl

  • Sophie Scholl is the ultimate badass, and a quote of hers motivates me to more and more political action. The ovaries on this woman, the guts, just before she is killed at twenty-one.

    "How can we expect righteousness to prevail when there is hardly anyone willing to give himself up individually to a righteous cause? Such a fine, sunny day, and I have to go, but what does my death matter, if through us, thousands of people are awakened and stirred to action?"

    -Sophie Scholl, 22 February, 1942.

    How to treat a man

  • I won’t lie; I cried a little when I read your comment. It’s really validating and rare to truly be seen. I do tread very carefully to be appropriate, fair, and reasonable in my responses, but I never really expected anyone to see that. I appreciate your comment more than I know how to say.

    Well fuck me, 'cause I shed a tear reading that, so consider it repaid. I don't know how to respond either, other than to say it feels great to 'hear' you say that. I do see your struggle and if it helps any, there are more people like me who see it too, yet don't know to (or how to) let you know.

    I just want everyone who is forming an opinion to see as many different sides and experiences as possible to, at the very least, make an informed decision on the state of gender politics. I know that everyone has their personal biases, and no one wants to give up privileges or power, but at the end of the day, again, like you said, the patriarchy hurts all of us.

    And I wanted to thank you for diving through all of the... responses here, and maintaining your composure. I won't to pretend to understand how you do it, but it is extremely impressive. The moreso because we're all fighting the same enemy (the wealthy) and again we see men jumping to attack a Lemmy Shitpost for being too unfair to men or whatever. The patriarchy of wealthy people are all our enemies.

    I appreciate you. <3

    So this is the part I really teared up, thank you very much. It never feels bad to hear it, and I appreciate you as well. I will continue to exist here, absorbing downvotes in my unchecked anger, watching you navigate through with poise.

    How to treat a man

  • Conversely, men often have to be taught this because society doesn’t do the teaching. Society is cool with men following the status quo.

    I wanted to briefly add to this that in WW1, one of the primary concerns of frontline commanders was that the soldiers literally couldn't take care of themselves. They couldn't sew, cook for even themselves, clean their clothes properly. I remember a quote from one soldier saying that, to paraphrase, 'back home mom does everything.' And then goes on to mention feeling rather helpless when doing even basic things a person needs to do to survive.

    So I'm sorry about this entire thread, and, well, this entire issue, to insert my Canadian background on said issue.

    I can see how careful you're being with what you posted, and frankly, I'm sad you have to do that. The fact is men have had it easier for most of our history, and they really hate looking at said fact. Do men have legitimate issues? Absolutely, and feminism addresses them all. 'The patriarchy' hurts men and women both.

    So, yeah, thank you. :)

  • This feels reductive. Are you seriously saying 'trust boys' is a message you should give girls right now? I have boys and girls, and I would never tell my daughter 'yeah just default to trusting guys' -- hell she had issues with boys not understanding consent or bodily autonomy in elementary school.

    And I 100% blame those of us around those boys, we're the adults, but the fact is girls literally cannot afford to just trust men or boys on meeting.

    We need to teach our boys and men to stop doing these things and then we can tell everyone to trust by default.

  • We don’t evolve things cause we need it... Also we keep it if it’s better and helps us stay alive long enough to breed.

    Why do humans see green? Probably because our monkey forebears, who lived in trees and ate leaves, needed to distinguish red leaves and red fruit (visible to birds) from the green background.

    I feel like OP covered that.

  • Seeing him setting himself on fire while taking on three chargers brang a tear to my eye.

    It's brought, not brang. Sorry this is physically painful for me, and I need to get better about it, but I had to say something. Otherwise agree 100%.
