That's a shame. I thought DoctorMindBeam was alright. I actually liked reading his posts at OneY. God knows that forum needed them.

I find it hilarious that of the /r/feminisms, /r/anarchism, /r/genderegalitarian, and even /r/twoxchromosomes reddits - it is /r/mensrights by far that is the least likely to ban people for their opinions, even the concern trolls and rabid feminists that come here just to disrupt.

I guess if you can win arguments, you do... and if you can't, you ban.

AimlessArrow · 2011-04-03T21:17:13+00:00

Ultrafeminist moderators abuse mod powers after being defeated in an online forum?

That never happens!

..I've been banned from TwoX for ages, btw. :) If you don't toe the party line, you're outta there.

Is it just me or does the notion that feminists and so-called "egalitarians" who are obviously feminist-minded have of equality seem like something that would have given George Orwell a raging hard-on and inspired him to write new books?

2011-04-03T21:47:07+00:00

LOL you can't be pro-feminism and be "gender egalitarian".

kragshot · 2011-04-03T19:48:34+00:00

I see.

This new sub is not going to work at all, is it?

I'm genuinely sorry to hear that the application of double standards are alive and well in that new sub....

2011-04-04T03:26:12+00:00

Do the people in genderegalitarian think that women should have to sign up for the draft?

fondueguy · 2011-04-03T19:21:08+00:00

Wow, fugo has incredibly strange thinking. It is a strawman argument but there are just so many assumptions and narrow vision that there's probably something wrong in his/her head.

DuchessofYanks · 2011-04-03T22:10:52+00:00

That's messed up, I'm leaving that subreddit.

AnnArchist · 2011-04-03T22:34:11+00:00

genderegalitarian seems to be anything but genderegalitarianism.

/notsubbed.

also, quit posting this shit here and striesanding the shit out of them.

DuchessofYanks · 2011-04-03T22:13:55+00:00

Should someone start a subreddit called something like r/trueegalitarian?

2011-04-04T00:47:23+00:00

This is common for groups that can't handle debate.

They make their group as homogenous and single-minded as possible so that they can wallow in their own opinions and circle jerk eachother.

The thing I most respect about r/mensrights is that the mods rarely ban anyone. We welcome open debate and actually thrive based on the opposition we encounter, whereas other subs outright ban people for no good reason, other than to silence people who threaten them.

A_Pathological_Liar · 2011-04-04T11:32:13+00:00

Don't worry.

I'll be likely joining you on that ban-wagon in a few hours, once he sees my comments being critical of his decisions, and how he just opened a floodgate for trolls. He's going to be one busy-ass mod.

I guess he didn't realize that banning people creates negative sentiment which is like blood-in-the-water for trolls.

ExpendableOne · 2011-04-04T13:09:35+00:00

Yeah, that subreddit pretty much seemed like BS to me when I noticed that first post by the moderator about "kyriarchy"(which is basically just a re-wording of "patriarchy" by feminists to cater to the men's rights movement while, much like their definition of gender-egalitarianism, still subtly blaming men, trivializing male issues and perpetuating the myth of male power/female victimhood). Their mods really aren't really helping the subreddit's credibility/integrity.

2011-04-04T13:36:10+00:00

This is just another attempt at astroturfing and appropriating the men's rights movement.

Feminists have realised that men face real injustices and are becoming effective activists. They also realise that MRA's are completely opposed to feminism in all it's bigoted forms. Hence they keep setting up shit like this to try and create an feminism approved men's rights movement.

rantgrrl · 2011-04-03T20:10:54+00:00

Who cares? There's like 85 people there.

2011-04-04T04:29:00+00:00

Why should we care? It's an empty subreddit.

I keep noticing this is more of a "Bitch about feminists" subreddit than a MensRights subreddit.

conn1e · 2011-04-04T09:57:15+00:00

I'm a bit confused by that entire conversation due to lack of context. I have to wonder, why getting banned from GenderEgalitarian, that you're posting it here.

Isn't that inherantly bias and hence a tad immature?

kloo2yoo · 2011-04-04T00:34:30+00:00

the 'good' doctor failed in the same way the mods in /equality did: they called out for equality, then began insulting men, then banned opposing viewpoints.

Also, check DoctorMindBeam's history, and you'll see that /equality and /feminisms subreddits were explicitly invited, but not /mensrights or /oney.

very egalitarian, dontcha think?

atroot · 2011-04-04T05:30:26+00:00

I'm proud of you.

Godspiral · 2011-04-04T15:07:51+00:00

I don't understand how it is possible to create GenderEgalitarian while not distancing yourself from female-supremacists.

ShakeyBobWillis · 2011-04-04T19:20:55+00:00

This is of so little consequence it can't even be called a first-world problem.

DoctorMindBeam has an alternate take on it. You were being an idiot.

Faryshta · 2011-04-04T03:52:53+00:00

Sorry kloo, assuming this post isn't bullshit it really does sound like you were in the wrong to me.

Greasy · 2011-04-04T03:39:13+00:00

Word to the wise: If you keep Adblock on for Reddit, you might not wanna let it slip. Especially if you're a moderator.

Wargasm6 · 2011-04-04T00:39:54+00:00

Can men and women be perfectly equal? Men and women aren't the same, so how can they both be treated the same? Only if you ignore the facts.

So /feminisms is on the sidebar there, but /mensrights isn't.

Hilariously, though, /malestudies is. You can't even explain that decision by claiming that it's a biased or bigoted decision. That is just plain silly. Not clever or manipulative, just plain dumb.

2011-04-03T23:00:24+00:00

AHAHAH I just noticed InfinitelyThirsting is a moderator there.

She/he/it is one of the most misandric posters here.

InfinitelyThirsting · 2011-04-03T18:55:14+00:00

Oh, that wasn't all you did, and it's not to do with the article itself. The article was fine.

I didn't ban you, obviously, but really. You went in antagonizing and mocking on purpose, rather than just submitting your content or commenting. Why wouldn't discussion be your first choice, rather than snide mockery?

nanomagnetic · 2011-04-04T13:18:17+00:00

What, did you link goatse or something?

nepidae · 2011-04-04T09:19:17+00:00

I have to say that linking to a screenshot instead of the, you know, actual link makes all of us look bad (and I mean humans, you are hurting the human race and I know something about bad net behavior too.)
