We really need a way to publicly name and shame these people.

It's two different arguments. Individually there are many people who see women having it better then themselves and of course they will be upset when society is saying they don't. Empathy here is understanding both sides have some valid points. Men do have a lot of problems in society. An entire generation left behind because many social programs focused only on boosting women while forgetting men. Telling those men to suck it up or that they're wrong isn't the answer. It's only going to radicalize sides. Both sides should be addressed.

An entire generation left behind

Where is the source for this?

Well I wouldn't say an entire generation, but apparently in the urbanite Western Gen Z population, the wage gap has reversed with women earning more than men due to how modern education and gender roles interact.

So if you were to be born in this millennium, the "most privileged" demographic is Western urbanite women.

In any case, I think it would just be a nicer thing if we were nicer to all people that are disadvantaged, or just people in general. Tearing others down doesn't lift you up.

Don't they usually end up doing it themselves?
