There is no issue segregation nor should there be apart from men or not men. It's one thing to saturate a movement with endless issues but another to say we don't care unless the focus is on men generically. Dealing with minority and gay men is of vital interest or they have no reason to join the movement. Broad support is needed for success and respect. We need more post like this not less.

Actually r/mensrights already lost a lot of support for not addressing 'intersectional' issues. I thought it was silly at first but I get it now. There is nothing like experiencing hate first hand to change your heart. The growing conservative bent is going to be a deal breaker and the best talent will stay far away. The right simply can't run social justice/human rights movement with their outdated mind set.

What you propose will actually neuter the MRM movement because all the special interests will get all the support (as special interests) and men will still remain uncared for

You don't mean men, you mean straight white men. The point of being all inclusive is to not be that because since men like you are so exclusionary to begin with few would want to help you. It's why feminists hate Trans exclusionary radical feminists. People don't like the haters, they hate. It was feminsts hating men that spawned the MRM.

"go check out /r/Egalitarianism and see how much support for men's issues there is there."

I see plenty and that group is on the Men's Rights side bar:

Petition to Outlaw Routine Male Genital Mutilation

Domestic violence legislation risks 'sexism' according to campaign group - because it doesn't include male victims

You can't draft people into your hate movement, we didn't sign up for your right wing B.S. You want to get the respect and attention but you want to make it all about straight white men and that's not going to work. Not even feminists can get over with just straight white women. Inclusion is the name of the game. Learn it and respect it.
