men are not a team.

Most men don’t want to be collectivist.

Men think and behave as individuals.

Most men vote for individual benefiting policies.

Men won’t suddenly just change, it will take massive societal changes and motivation.

The fact that as soon as men start speaking up about their issues a horde of women comes crashing in to make fun and insult them is a big contributor to this

Men should be more a team. Like women are. We could get so much more done and would make huge steps for men’s rights.

Women always say this. They say “Men should teach boys not to grow up as rapist” as an excuse to dress up like they aren’t wearing clothes.

Look. The rapist is wrong. 100%. But men can’t teach other men to not be criminals because criminals exist by default in society. So don’t wear a bra out and get piss drunk to protect yourself.

Women act like men can walk anywhere and be safe. We don’t walk around in high crime areas. We ain’t trying to get robbed. So women should do the same. Dress normally, don’t get drunk and avoid strange men in the club.

I loved one quote from Zootopia by Mr.Big: "My child, we may be evolved, but down deep we're still animals". No matter what society will say, no matter how hard-pushed is the idea of egalitarianism and that both genders can be equal - men will always be natural competitors against each other. Men simply weren't made to perceive themselves as one group like women do because if one prospers - others suffer. We may create groups, but that's because they have ties that were made by agreement and there are many other men who will want to see them being taken down because of the innate competition. It's just funny seeing society fruitlessly trying to control all men - like a rider trying to saddle the bull only in the end to be always thrown away.

I think that's a projection from a lot of women, and a reflection on how a lot of women tend to let other women dictate how they think or act through collectivism. A lot of women will also just bond together as women, never really questioning the fact that it is misandry and female chauvinism at the root of that bond. It's not coming from a good place, and they should be happy that men do not bond over misogyny and male chauvinism against women the way so many women do against men.

Women will also often use this to divert blame away from themselves and avoid accountability for their choices. All anyone can really control is their own choices. Good men will choose to act good. Bad men will choose to act bad. Good men are not responsible for bad man acting badly. It is up to women to make sure good men are valued and chosen over bad ones. Even if good men did have some kind of influence over bad men, when women choose bad men over good men, it also takes away a great deal of influence that those good men might have had over the bad ones too. If the good men are not valued by women, then that not only takes away a major incentive for men to be good but it also shows to men that good men are not to be respected and emulated as well.

So many women just fail to acknowledge, or just don't want to acknowledge, just how much power and influence they have over society and men as a whole. It breaks their victim narratives and self-infantilization.

We need brotherhood and fraternity back

Men as a group are the enemy the powers-that-be are trying to weaken and break down so they can control us more easily, that is what they mean. They don't want us to be a team united for our own interests. But they find it useful to portray us as a team when demonizing us and encouraging hate against us.

Do not overlook what platforms like Reddit have added to this dynamic. The popularization of arguing and attempting to correct one another online has rooted very well. Right or wrong, men spend an exhausting amount of time looking to swing the biggest dick in posts/comments.

Nope, men are not a team.

Women are not a team.

We’re supposed to be a human team.

Anyone with developed brain and average IQ understands that. Don't take online and agendist diarrhea that serious.

fuckthemoddsofreddit · 2024-11-01T11:35:21+00:00

Then shut up and stop complaining if you men wont even work for men.

Seriously. Keeping bitching and moaning instead of working together to solve our problems. Pathetic men
