Lots of stupid, emotionally driven teenagers on the platform who think their opinion is reality, so you have a lot of Tate/Peterson/Rogan riders on the platform. Add in the fact 'controversial' (blatantly wrong or insane) content gets lots of comments/engagement, so it is pushed by the algorithm. Then there are just lots of idiots in general who don't want to consider self-reflection or change their vies, so they will eat up all the ideology that shifts the blame or gives them a chance to 'get to the top.' They are victims of modern society. But somehow see every 'problem' except for the real one, the one of neoliberal ideologies around capitalism and individualism.

Reddit is seriously dogshit. Shitty admins, shitty users and shitty investor interests ruined the site completely. The platform will never turn back. It's gone fully into the hive-mind/censorship direction, likely because it keeps people on the site and maximises revenue.
As if killing people is some ultimate evil? WW2 literally happened with the purpose of stopping the Nazis, and the only way was killing them due to their ideology requiring force.
People die every day for no reason, some suffer their entire lives', some people die due to indirect/direct consequences of greed by corporations. The US has killed millions through geopolitical interference. Yet killing somebody who would have 'unideal races' genocided is too far? Sure. As if liberals aren't ok with killing people as long as they agree with the perpetrator.
Fucking ridiculous. If people feel so strongly to publicly announce wanting to kill you, they are either insane, or you are fucked up. And in this case, I think we know the answer.
Just not true though. Anything to not be accountable or responsible, I guess. You would only need max 1% of the population anyway. Most people won't stand in your way, and if you have food + a place to live you are good enough for the downtime.
As if they don't dehumanise everyone else to get there.
They act like 9/11 justifies all the geopolitical havoc the US caused because '3000 people died.' All while many of the same motherfuckers cried about covid and actively spread misinformation leading up to over a million dead Americans. It's peak entitlement. The world would be better off without any 'conservatives' who are really just regressives roleplaying.
People forgot why WW2 happened, apparently ig. Any Nazi today needs the same end.
Fight for yourself? Or is that also impossible? People don't know the power they have together, and the elites won't give up peacefully. Most western people could do something, they just don't want to or are ignorant of how they could act. The only real problem is that capitalists who control everything will try to stomp out any organisation of things (such as unions or protests), which is why force and/or non-cooperation is needed.
As long as it was the 'right' Americans, they would be ok with them being on the list. They pretend to act like violence is always wrong, all while ignoring the fact the entire world (and especially the USA) utilises violence constantly, and that they themselves are fine with it.
Most people just don't care enough to do anything about injustice, or don't think about it at all. It's infuriating to see how apathetic and irresponsible people can be. Just look at the meat industry. People could stop, but they don't. They only care that their virtue is signalled and that the suffering is far enough detached and out of sight so that they don't have to face it and actually self-reflect on their cognitive dissonance or flaws. What's worse is that eating meat is often culturally engrained, and so similar to religious indoctrination, even harder to quit. All this, done by years of lobbying of the meat industry and other unethical practices. These problems of injustice are deep-rooted in our society, and entitlement/lack of empathy. The arguments used for factory farming these days are the same slavers used in the past, and even now it is just transferred elsewhere so that people can be exploited all for a cheaper product to consume.
Things get even sadder when you realise that all the injustice in the world is for nothing but ego or extreme selfishness. I honestly think it's a large reason people still believe in religion. When you face the injustice in the world and become aware of it, you either have to ignore it/find a way to cope or actually do something. As long as people remain ignorant, uneducated and don't have empathy for others, this will continue.
Right wing politician claiming to care about men's rights and sexism? Sure. This is just another attempt to distract people from the real problems within the government. There should be a single social equalities minister, which is what the role already is, really. It just so happens that misogyny is literally everywhere in the world and that men (as a man myself) are advantaged in numerous ways. Imagine being a woman in Pakistan.
There are some social stigmas and problems from cultural beliefs, such as the idea 'men don't feel' and other bs, but in truth anyone with a brain realises how invalid these arguments are. What we actually need is better education and access to information, so people don't fall into this shit in the first place and can see through the flaws of people around them and not follow into conformism blindly. If anything, the idea of having a male counterpart is just serving to further the divide by continuing to separate people based on superficial qualities. If you really want to end sexism, you need to treat people as equals regardless of sex, and to get others to do the same. It will require lots of activism to do so because far too many people hold discriminatory beliefs towards both sexes that they are taught from a young age and hold emotionally rather than logically.
From what I have observed, so many people claiming to care or talking about 'men's rights' really just have a victim-complex and are very emotionally immature. It's all too often the same people who cry about women being bitches or being shameless onlyfans models. For all the problems women face, it's barely even comparable. That isn't to invalidate sexism against men, but just to mean that they are not even nearly close in terms of discrimination experienced.
Lots of Redditors recently joined it seems. And they aren't known for being the smartest people who properly utilise the voting system.
