"Dig deep" into the movement by reading a few comments online.
Only focus on the douchiest ones you can find.
Declare Men's Rights a lost cause.
???
Profit.

Look around. There are a lot of people here who truly want equality, or are fighting for specific things (father's rights is a good example). Still, there are also a lot people here who are just mad at women. It's very similar to the feminist movement: a small group of loud sexists makes it easy to discount a lot of fairly rational people.

Downvote misogyny, upvote true injustice.

The good men project is a feminist site that is openly hostile to the men's movement - please stop linking there!

The goodmenproject is a known feminist propaganda outlet.

Basically they are a "how can we make men please women more" site.

Some of the leading members of it are actually female. They actively work against men.

This is why going to that site and debating there is profitable. Your find gems in the comments like this:

"I have found personally and unfortunately that feminism is not that place for me. It simply demands that I accept my own significant experience as last and least. Feminism in my eyes has fabricated a false dichotomy of villains, assembled a meager ideology to battle those villains and homogenized the individuals experience to conscript efforts against invisible villains that cannot and will not ever be defeated. Many adherents to it have simply turned away from the ideological slavery that it offers and requires and have resumed living their own lives. They now know that their is no savior and that their turn for salvation is last or never. It promotes a “take a number” view and practice. Those advocating it’s purposes actually believe that their number will be served soon. It is a pyramid scheme financially and frenetically. IMO"

Wonderful that when the mirror is held up to your face, you look away

Aww, and someone beat me to posting this link. I'd say the article was insightful, but most of the observations made in it are akin to noticing there are stars in the sky at night in a place completely absent artificial ambient light.

Please don't leave this crap laying around, someone might accidentally read it.

That site needs dismantling--I mean, a pop-up? Really?

"First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win."

Stage one complete, stage two in progress.

I know nothing of this person or his blog, nor do I really care to delve into it further. I can take issue with some of his post. But fwiw I will say that this paragraph -

Men’s rights activists aren’t much like any other activists I’ve ever run across. For one thing, for supposed activists they are almost completely inactive. Sure, they complain endlessly about things they see as terrible injustices against men. They just don’t do anything about them. While some of those who consider themselves fathers’ rights activists—a slightly different breed from your garden-variety MRAs—try to influence laws and legislatures, MRAs do little more than cultivate their resentments.

...is pretty spot on.
