Throwaway because I'm linking to other places I post, and don't feel like being doxxed.

As many of you know, the media are painting MRAs as feeding the fire for what Elliot Rodger did.

Right or wrong, doesn't matter. It's happening.

We need to address it. We need to say loudly and clearly that we condemn him and his actions. Don't let them control the discourse.

Say it simply, say it proudly, and say it on every comment board you can:

"I'm a (man or woman). I'm an MRA. I condemn what Elliot Rodger did and said."

Articles like this one complain that we are being silent. http://www.theglobeandmail.com/globe-debate/when-killers-target-women-why-do-moderate-men-stand-silent/article18843166/. They might be right.

DO NOT go down the rabbit hole of saying MRAs aren't like this or that. Don't bother with gender comparisons "if a murderer called herself a feminist blahblahb" or even trying to argue the point.

Ignore the bait that will be thrown at you.

Just say loudly and proudly that you condemn him and his actions. Don't be put on the defensive.

We need to be heard. Say it everywhere: "I'm a man. I'm an MRA. I condemn what Elliot Rodger said and did."
