      You’ve gone off the deep end. What you have written above is so filled with rage I would take a break from this discussion.

      I accept that you truly believe what you have written above, but it doesn’t help people heal to play victim olympics. And it doesn’t help anyone when you dismiss their expression of the systemic injustices they face.

      Ranting about your issue on a post about someone else’s issue isn’t cool.

      If you’d like to talk about policing victim’s language, or even your friend who is struggling, that is fine. This is a big platform and there’s space for that.

      OP has a legit issue and a legit gripe. It’s a shitty thing to try to make this thread about something else.

          I dont think anyone here said the main issue is women, and if they said they’re in the minoriy(I hope) Patriarchy created many issues for both women and men, tho more for women This thread is talking about a serious and real issue, and you are diverting the topic

      Meanwhile, if she plays with women or the rare non-toxic guy, none of that is a problem, they congratulate each other, give constructive feedback and say good luck, have fun, good game.

      Can you imagine how it is to go through that every single day? No matter if you’re sick or pissed or depressed? To try and relax in a fun game of Valorant after a super frustrating work day, and immediately being screamed at by a rabid male teenager who very obviously just thinks that insulting others makes him more likeable and “alpha”? Every time you want to relax?

      I like how in attacking the original image’s message you only support it

      As a man who is basically dead inside, probably, in the long run, due to men. I tend to use the phrase “I hate people” not because I’m avoiding the whole thing of saying I hate men or I hate women but people generally suck. All of the reasons you have listed above apply to people as a whole.

      I’m not defending the opposing side of your argument because I fully understand it, women probably do face those things in large proportions due to men, but I have been told, in the grand scheme of things, probably an equal number of times to man up or grow a pair by men and women alike. When I say I’m dead inside, I don’t physically know how to display any actual emotion, (anger and humour are the 2 most prominent if you count humour as an emotion) so simply by voicing something that I don’t like or making a complaint is enough for people to think I’m not being manly enough.

      I still have a circle of people I care about and I’m almost sure they care about me but I would still say I hate people.

              And after sharing my experiences, you wonder why I might be that way. You argue for the reasoning why some women say they hate men and as soon as someone says women aren’t all angels you get defensive. Look in the mirror, the patriarchy you hate, you’re part of it.

                  Only if you look down on women, I don’t. Maybe you should have a little more respect for women.

                  Also, I never said I hate women, in fact, I said that I don’t use that phrase because people are equal in my eyes and people cause the problems.
