Aerik-to-English Translation:

The more I see how politicians like to get people to act against their own interests to boost [the politician's] personal interests, the more I want to talk about how patriarchal powerplayers willfully ignore violence against men, by women, simply as a way to keep men enraged [at women, so that these men continue the patriarchy by being angry at women. When, in fact, they should direct their rage at the patriarchs who uphold a status quo that allows this to happen.]

As far as I can tell, Aerik is trying to say that the patriarchs are allowing violence against men by women to continue in order to encourage hatred of women, thereby discouraging men from supporting anything that has anything to do with feminism. Hence they reduce support for things that could change the balance of power and put those patriarchs out of office.

This may be a little confusing, but he has a good point: Patriarchs (males in power--not all men in a primarily patriarchal society, one run by powerful men, are patriarchs) are not promoting the interests of men. They are promoting their own interests only and are happy to step on less powerful men in order to do so.
