Feminism focuses on erasing only two of those: Women's disadvantages and Men's privileges. Official Definition of Feminism should match that.I very much concur. I guess it's the old story of becoming like the very thing you set out to fight. My personal take is that feminism is full of misandrists, while the MRA is full of misogynists, and both love to use their movements noble stated goals to veil their sexist hatred.

And when little Adolf tells the world that Shmuel simply invented the Holocaust and is lying about all his family being exterminated by the fascists, is Shmuel losing something? Like, safety, maybe? Or freedom? Are Jews as a minority group somehow less worthy of protection than individuals? | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 07/11/20 09:59 PM |
| 2 | I have some extremely radical thoughts on freedom of conscience, blacklisting and shunning"It's easier to fool people than it is to convince them they have been fooled." Mark Twain, supposedly. We have a prime example here. Absolutely convinced that he's seen the light while everyone else is just too stupid to understand his infallible reasoning skills and deductive powers. It's kinda sad, because you can tell that at one point, he must have been a truth-seeker, before he gave that up for the comfort of simply being right from now on, nevermind the facts. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 07/11/20 08:37 PM |
| 1 | I have some extremely radical thoughts on freedom of conscience, blacklisting and shunningNo, the right to say untrue things is still absolute, provided the untruth does not deprive anyone of money or physical integrity. That is false. spreading lies about how your neighbor likes to fornicate with large dogs is not depriving them of money or "physical integrity". It is also very illegal. All that hate speech laws do is transfer that protection from a purely individual level to a group. And that makes all kinds of sense. Again: All of the western ("free")world has some kind of hate sp… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 07/11/20 08:26 PM |
| 1 | I have some extremely radical thoughts on freedom of conscience, blacklisting and shunningEveryone has a right to their own opinion. But not to their own facts. When you state falsehoods about a group of people, that's just as problematic as falsehoods about individuals. The latter is not covered by free speech in the US. Both are not covered in EU. And it makes perfect sense, and in fact it is highly problematic that the US let's populists do to minorities what would be illegal when done to an individual. The US is alone in the world with that extremist understanding of free speech.… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 07/11/20 08:11 PM |
| 1 | I have some extremely radical thoughts on freedom of conscience, blacklisting and shunningi already explained why your reasoning doesn't work. If you tell David that the Holocaust didn't happen, you are belittling his suffering, you are calling him a liar and a fraud. David does not even need to be addressed personally to be assaulted. And i hope i do not have to explain in this sub why it is a bad idea to let Nazis style themselves as victims of a conspiracy, because we all know what happened the last time we let them do that. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 07/11/20 08:08 PM |
| 0 | I have some extremely radical thoughts on freedom of conscience, blacklisting and shunningThat is simply false. The NAzis had all kinds of reasonings, including "because we can". Very rarely was there any mentioning of protection against hate speech. It's just a very distorted understanding of how the Nazis operated, and it's only convenient to those wishing to protect hate speech by abusing free speech. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 07/11/20 07:57 PM |
| 2 | I have some extremely radical thoughts on freedom of conscience, blacklisting and shunningCos one is enough to demonstrate that your rule is false. And you can't write that the US Pres needs assassinating in the US media, clearly demonstrating that there are limits to free speech in the US that did not exist in a dictatorship. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 07/11/20 07:55 PM |
| 1 | I have some extremely radical thoughts on freedom of conscience, blacklisting and shunningThey do exist, as well as the legal reasoning that they do not infringe on free speech. STop accusing others of lying when all they said are demonstrable facts. It only makes you look like you're completely detached from reality. Which, to be honest, you already look anyway, but no need to double down on it. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 07/11/20 07:53 PM |
| 2 | I have some extremely radical thoughts on freedom of conscience, blacklisting and shunningNo, it is not. hate speech is simply the group-based version of the individual cases you listed. And obviously there is a path there: Accept that not only individuals, but also minorities as groups need to be protected from that verbal assault you rightly condemn when it's targeting individuals. Again: free speech is not unlimited, anywhere. It is always balanced against other peoples rights, and sometimes those take precedence. Nothing different with Europe's hate speech laws. They protect mino… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 07/11/20 05:05 PM |
| 1 | I have some extremely radical thoughts on freedom of conscience, blacklisting and shunningThe brits were dictatorial. These laws simply had nothing to do with being scourged by dictators. Musharraf seized power in a military coup and nothing suggests he couldn't have done that if the blasphemy laws hadn't been in place. Again: Dictatorships rely LESS on controlling what the public can and can't say than democracies do. Your proclaimed causality just doesn't hold up to scrutiny. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 07/11/20 04:56 PM |
| 1 | I have some extremely radical thoughts on freedom of conscience, blacklisting and shunningI replied to that elsewhere: Hate speech laws are just the collective equivalent of the individuals against "libel, fraud and other limited forms of assault". And then there's still blasphemy on US law books anyway. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 07/11/20 04:51 PM |
| 1 | I have some extremely radical thoughts on freedom of conscience, blacklisting and shunningWell, hate speech is the exact same, but against a group of people instead of a single individual (or corporation, lol). Holocaust denial is literally pissing on the graves of millions, and it's calling people liars and frauds that were actually there and survived the death camps. Some of these people are still alive, so making holocaust denial unlawful is nothing but protecting them against things that would be illegal in the US, too when stated on an individual level. The moral calculus on wha… | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 07/11/20 04:48 PM |
| 1 | I have some extremely radical thoughts on freedom of conscience, blacklisting and shunningYou will note that Musharraf inherited these laws and it was not him that made them harsher. Again: Dictatorships do not have to care what their people say. And then, looks like blasphemy is still a crime in parts of the USA. So much for the unlimited free speech theory that you seem to believe in. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blasphemy_law_in_the_United_States | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 07/11/20 04:37 PM |
| 0 | I have some extremely radical thoughts on freedom of conscience, blacklisting and shunningI agree on all of that, including the questionable existence. But it's a slightly different thing when you attack something that gives identity to a repressed group. I therefore would applaud the term child-raping murderer when used in islamic countries, but critique it when used by western countries. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 07/11/20 04:32 PM |
| 4 | I have some extremely radical thoughts on freedom of conscience, blacklisting and shunningYou think you did. But you did the opposite. I repeat: Free speech isn't unlimited in the US either, and you're wrong about Hitlers reasoning to abolish free speech. Outlawing hate speech is not an infringement on free speech, end of story. Just like libel laws aren't either. Free speech is NOT without limits, nowhere. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 07/11/20 04:27 PM |
| 3 | I have some extremely radical thoughts on freedom of conscience, blacklisting and shunningIf you are under 40 years old, you will live to see France, Spain or Germany fall to dictatorship again. Seems much more likely to happen in the US at this point, but then, you don't exactly strike me as a very enlightened thinker anyway, so i guess your prophesies aren't really relevant. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 07/11/20 04:01 PM |
| 5 | I have some extremely radical thoughts on freedom of conscience, blacklisting and shunningYou are somehow missing the point that free speech isn't unlimited in the US, either. And you are very wrong about hitler imposing restrictions on free speech exclusively under the guise of hate speech laws. You don't really know much about the issue except what you heard from US right wing pundits, do you? | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 07/11/20 03:59 PM |
| 1 | I have some extremely radical thoughts on freedom of conscience, blacklisting and shunningchild-raping murderer Mohammed spotted the islamophobe. FYI: All US presidents since WWII with ONE exception were child murderers. Maria Magdalena was a child by todays standards too btw. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 07/11/20 03:54 PM |
| 2 | I have some extremely radical thoughts on freedom of conscience, blacklisting and shunningYou're putting that in the form of a question, because you don't really know. Comeon, let me see your evidence of the Pakistani *state* giving a shit. You won't find it. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 07/11/20 03:50 PM |
| 2 | I have some extremely radical thoughts on freedom of conscience, blacklisting and shunningIn Pakistan under Musharraf, speech was so free that newspapers could openly print demands for Musharrafs assassination. Free speech is absolutely possible in Dictatorships, since they rely more on violence anyway. while democracies rely more on propaganda to uphold their rule. As Chomsky put it: "Propaganda is to democracy what violence is to dictatorship." When you can just murder anyone who actually threatens your rule, you don't need to care that much about what they say. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 07/11/20 03:21 PM |
| 4 | I have some extremely radical thoughts on freedom of conscience, blacklisting and shunningFree speech is not unlimited (not even in the US). Europe is very correct when excluding hate speech from free speech, and they have paid a high price to learn it. I think the one who needs a tiny bit more education on the topic is you, with all due respect. | /r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates | 07/11/20 03:15 PM |
