I can't comment on if the post is low effort or not (though it sparks enough discussion that it shouldn't be removed), but I don't understand how this post has any relevance to "just shitting on feminists." Maybe OP has done that before in which case go off on those posts, but I don't see it happening in this post so I don't see how it applies here. It highlights an issue that is seen very commonly among feminists where men are treated as disposable and a danger that must be stopped, but that doesn't mean it's just here to shit on feminists.

I looked a bit into OP's argument (though I didn't read much and didn't vote or comment for obvious reasons), and a few quotes from multiple people they were arguing against include but are not limited:

Happens more often to men by... other men.

Victim blaming

You're right in that it shouldn't be up to women to protect ourselves, it should be up to men to stop being so fucking violent. But the sad reality of it is that those men won't go away. Men can protect themselves by avoiding being involved in gangs/crime, they can protect themselves by self defense. Women can protect ourselves by.... avoiding relationships with men?

Violence in men is an epidemic.

Acting like men are either inherently violent or shielded from violence completely by not being involved in gangs that society's men and women pressure men into doing.

No, the person said women feel afraid. Of what some men are capable of.

Enough men rape and kill women, stalk them, harass them, I would be afraid if I were a woman, too. It's not that hard to understand.

Acting like that sexism against men because a very small number of men are violent.

Are you a woman?

Discrediting someone's opinion based on gender.

I couldn't find what OP showed here and didn't care to look much further, but if what OP showed is true then it is literally advocating for the death of innocent people because of crimes that both men and women commit.

I mean the entire post is literally saying how so few people acknowledge how much of a problem femicides are, despite even fewer people acknowledging that men make up the overwhelming majority of murder victims and attempts to highlight and stop murder being geared more towards female victims (and it shouldn't be gendered at all even towards helping male victims since nobody deserves to be murdered, but the fact that women receive more support despite being victims less is just the icing on the cake of that post's hypocrisy).

Simply change "women" to "whites" and "men" to "blacks" and it becomes obvious that these people are far-right extremists actively working against human rights, so I think it fits pretty well on this sub.
