I was banned for merely mentioning a right that men don't have while the subreddit is filled with women's need for "rights". Somehow we are "far right" and want "supremacy".

What did you write to get you banned?

Dunkolunko · 2019-12-28T06:56:13+00:00

So you can't support Bernie Sander's policies on other topics while caring about men's rights?

aussietoads · 2019-12-28T07:31:05+00:00

LOL. What a great way to drive away more potential support for Sanders. Great comedy material right there.

timo103 · 2019-12-28T10:21:49+00:00

They're repeating the same mistakes made in 2016. Alienate the center people, without even a proper argument, and then you wonder how Trump won.

I_Hate_Snowflakes · 2019-12-28T13:06:21+00:00

Far right and Alt right is what they call you to help rationalize and excuse their abhorrent behavior towards you when you haven't done anything wrong.

WarOfNoise · 2019-12-28T11:26:36+00:00

put this in r/banned

Daemonicus · 2019-12-28T11:55:00+00:00

It's obvious why you were banned.

Hopefully while he's president he'll take notice of the need for men's rights as well, including reproductive rights. One day.

You simply can't do that. Yes it would be nice if you could, but you can't. Too many people are just too retarded to treat it fairly. You need to bring up the individual issues (only a couple at a time, not a full list), and leave it at that. "Men's Rights" is a tainted phrase/concept. There's too much stigma, and too much ideology against it.

If enough people are more subtle, it will start to permeate through those communities, and it will become normalised. Use gender neutral language, when applicable. Talk about increasing rates of suicide being a mental health issue, instead of men committing more suicide. Talk about corruption in Family Court, instead of men being shafted. Talk about obscene/draconian prison sentencing and the for-profit prison model, instead of men having longer sentences. Talk about bodily autonomy instead of circumcision.

It's better to hold these more subtle views as a perceived insider, than to try and force feed them when you are viewed as an enemy. When you're more subtle, it allows people to connect the dots on their own, and it's more likely that they will see things from your point of view. If you flat out attempt to tell them what to think, you run the risk of them doubling down and that will make them more dogmatic.

ScribbleMonster · 2019-12-28T12:58:03+00:00

Sorry to piggyback on your post, but I think it's relevant:

Someone said I was supporting "the wrong brand of feminism" in another woman-themed sub, and because I said "I'm an egalitarian because 'feminist' is too narrow for my liking and men and other genders matter too" I was downvoted to hell. Why do people have a problem lifting EVERYONE up?

minbooz · 2019-12-28T09:26:48+00:00

That’s absolutely ridiculous. There’s no correlation between the two. You can be a liberal and support men’s rights! Not all Bernie supporters are feminists

livelauglove · 2019-12-28T14:15:06+00:00

Isn't this resistance against men's rights evidence in itself that a men's rights movement is sorely needed?

HeForeverBleeds · 2019-12-28T14:34:50+00:00

That's just plain ignorance to call the men's rights movement "far right". What part of wanting men to have equal parental rights, equal reproductive rights, equal genital integrity rights, equal voting rights, equal protection from domestic abuse and sexual violence, etc. have anything to do with the "far right"?

Seriously, all anti-MRA's are either intellectually dishonest, or downright stupid and know really nothing about MRA's

Cyb3rd31ic_Citiz3n · 2019-12-28T12:55:52+00:00

u/LeksaOW - hi there again. Decided to tag you in this as an example of one instance where we get tarred as being 'far-right' in order to shut us down. For as long as this continues we get forcefully pushed out of the left-wing conversation whilst feminists get a villain they can 'lift themselves up' against.

RockmanXX · 2019-12-28T12:21:38+00:00

I thought liberals were all about being open-minded, what's up with "We don't allow you to speak if you don't toe the ideological line"?

Evilcon21 · 2019-12-28T10:49:38+00:00

Wait how is men’s rights a alt right thing?

nitzua · 2019-12-28T12:57:15+00:00

'far right' is their lazy description of anyone that doesn't agree with them

Upsadazi · 2019-12-28T14:40:01+00:00

Reddit mods on a power trip again smh

1LegendaryWombat · 2019-12-28T12:36:39+00:00

Far right is what people who are far left call anything even slightly right of their position that they disagree with.

Its just a bullshit tactic to try and dismiss something, especially when they know nothing about it but the propaganda.

WarOfNoise · 2019-12-28T11:26:16+00:00

phracea · 2019-12-28T13:20:06+00:00

Pretty sure we arent a far right movement with plenty of users who are on the left side of the line that are here too.

tastetherainbowmoth · 2019-12-28T13:49:22+00:00

I guess the confusion comes from different terms. I had the same discussion recently in a Queer/LGTBwhatever seminar and my trans prof called one girl out on exactly that. There are recent right wing groups men groups. But the original men rights groups are far older and are actually very supportive to (real, not this new wave brand) feminists and vice versa.

wukash · 2019-12-28T13:59:34+00:00

Can confirm

RyansPutter · 2019-12-28T12:59:46+00:00

Bernie Sanders' support primarily comes from college students and women with wonderful degrees like English and [gender/race/nationality] Studies, so this is not surprising.

insane_playzYT · 2019-12-28T11:17:49+00:00

A far right movement hey? Whilst some members including myself may be, the majority aren't. There have been multiple surveys on this subreddit which showed that the majority of users were left wing/liberals. Now this is only the subreddit, but it gives us a bit of an insight into it.

TheAnarxoCapitalist · 2019-12-28T12:50:29+00:00

You'll never get anything by being nice. You'll never win anything while believing in equality, because it's not true. Men and women are different in almost every way, even in societal perception. As long as you play nice and push for equality, you'll lose in every way.

Play dirty, hide your money overseas, have plans B, C, D and even X, destroy your whiteknight and protective nature and you'll win.

This is how you win the game.

JackReaper333 · 2019-12-28T12:10:59+00:00

I'm about to state my personal stance on this issue - feel free to hate on it. It's okay to have different stances and I certainly won't hate anyone for disagreeing.

I believe that this is an extremely large problem with the left as a whole. They draw a very hard line in the sand and (a) declare that you must agree with everything they say, (b) demonize anyone that doesn't agree, and (c) keep moving the line further and further to the left.

Despite their claims of tolerance and acceptable, the left is extremely intolerant and outright hostile to anyone that doesn't perfectly mirror their belief system. Everything is a Purity Test and those who fail are classified as vile enemies upon whom violence should be used.

It's causing a thousand schisms and in-fighting among the left.

MunmunkBan · 2019-12-28T13:15:18+00:00

I didn't know it was a right wing sub. I didn't pick that up at all.

robcars · 2019-12-28T11:19:39+00:00

You will never win against women. The pendulum has swung too far and their Direction there is no more equality anymore. The problem with sticking equalities always goes too far in the wrong direction. Meaning that women have all the rights right now and hold all the cards. May sound crazy but this is the reason why I personally date men only because mentally I'm attracted to them. And there is so much less hassle than dating women. Being a top I find so much less hassles with men

immortalsperm · 2019-12-28T10:40:04+00:00

Democrats are the founding fathers of feminism ,metoo , PC culture, SJWs and they r very close to censoring free speech, just wait, the socialist agenda will unravel.

2019-12-28T10:32:22+00:00

This is why people like Sanders and Corbyn are unelectable, their supporters go too far and alienate the normal people

Mous3_ · 2019-12-28T11:26:20+00:00

You can't cure political autism. Highly infectious and almost always terminal in regards to rational thought.

StefanosOfMilias · 2019-12-28T12:39:54+00:00

Man thats so sad, I am a huge bernie bro but this bullshit makes my blood boil

I just hope that the mods dont speak for him

I_Hate_Snowflakes · 2019-12-28T14:12:44+00:00

That's good to know, I was considering supporting Sanders. Not anymore

ShawshankRetention · 2019-12-28T08:49:02+00:00

While you did good by showing how bigoted Sanders supporters are, i do think you should not claim to be an MRA while having an usernale claiming to hate a part of the population.

While feminists are free to call themselves man haters, alpha ressenter or incel basher, it is not a road we have any interest in taking.

ThreeLF · 2019-12-28T08:12:16+00:00

I am not in USA so I don't really know politicians that well, is Bernie like overall bad (please answer from a educated point of view, don't say he is bad because of socialist kinda things) is he like Andrew Yang who supports misandry?

ThEGr33kXII · 2019-12-28T10:52:33+00:00

How are men's rights far right while women's rights are left!?

lastdazeofgravity · 2019-12-28T08:57:48+00:00

I was going to vote for Bernie but I guess they don’t want me to and neither do I anymore

2019-12-28T09:30:08+00:00

Sanders is a senile hypocrite so who cares

Siganid · 2019-12-28T09:39:50+00:00

Sanders is against equal rights, lesson learned.

2019-12-28T10:05:51+00:00

Hahaha

Inbefore121 · 2019-12-28T14:16:56+00:00

Come on down to Yang for president, we'd be happy to have you.

Dworgi · 2019-12-28T12:29:43+00:00

To be fair, a lot of people here are also MAGA morons. Wish it wasn't true, but it is.

2Squirrels · 2019-12-28T13:59:55+00:00

Y'all were just bashing on Yang here yesterday. Lol

Feshtof · 2019-12-28T12:55:11+00:00

What are the men's reproductive rights you are looking for?

LiquidDreamtime · 2019-12-28T13:27:27+00:00

MRA are notoriously far right and often white supremacists and misogynists.

If you deny this or don’t believe it, you could very well be some or all of those things.

I was banned for merely mentioning a right that men don't have while the subreddit is filled with women's need for "rights". Somehow we are "far right" and want "supremacy".

Not anything to do with determining one of the parties rights to determine if they are going to have a child.
