For many older anti-fascists like myself, who focused so intently on challenging the menace of white nationalism, it is dispiriting that it’s been the Left, not the Right, that has succeeded in establishing this collective blame-and-punishment thinking in the mainstream. It is as irrational to blame all men for rape as it is to blame all men of a particular ethnic group for rape. If one irrational narrative can be so easily established by the feminist Left, then we should brace ourselves for the likelihood that the far-Right will become more successful in using this approach.

spot on.

Ah the irony of a person who sees "white nationalism" as this gooey specter in the night, especially in the UK. But fails to mention just how much the political left has defended those "immigrant communities" from any repercussions to the point that they've gained allies and/or effective control over multiple levels of government, and order police, courts, crown's office, from even doing the basics of investigations. Not limited to grooming, rape gangs, and sexual assaults, but education as well. While ignoring actual crime statistics for fear of being labeled as "not part of their own group" anymore.

This of course leading to decades long systems of systemic abuse. Where actual abusers are ignored to the point where abuse is endemic and accepted, and ignored by the population at large for fear of being labeled "racist." And then wonders why there is an actual rise in hate against those "immigrant communities."

The actual demand for "white nationalists" outstripped supply, and their inaction or in worst cases supported actions of the state/media/organizations against people calling for investigations, is creating what they claimed was everywhere.

Hold on boyos, it's not gonna be fun. But it sure smells like 1927.

The only thing men can do is withdraw from interaction with women completely: appealing to rationality in the face of emotional hysteria doesn't seem to be working.

The only hope is that womens own interests will eventually prevail and restore sanity.
