Let's be real, the movement is making headway, and it has huge parallels with the struggles of early American feminism. All it needs is to get to the point where it has decent exposure, positive or negative, and people will begin to be heartened towards the cause.
We first have to agree, in my opinion, that this subreddit needs to take a cue or two from 2XC, and cut down on reposts, 'whiney' titles, and take a less pointed stance toward feminism. Focus on what men face as issues, and people will see how and where women quietly take advantage of men and societal benefits unjustly without direct mention. Draw supportive parallels with women's issues to help push both groups to the same goals. There are moderates in feminism who could be our allies, but we should also do our best to quell our own extremist detractors.
I've just been seeing a quiet shift in things lately bringing a little light on men's issues and I'd like to think this is the moment we could finally get the ball rolling with some real front-page exposure.
Edit: To be clear, these are only my opinions and suggestions. There can be no mistake, though, we ARE making headway. I'm glad we're getting in here, focusing and hashing things out. I get that there is no safe place to really vent feelings on things, and I get that reposts are often accidental. But a cleaner, more disciplined subreddit would be more plateable to the average browser. That's what I mean to say regarding 2XC's success. The problem with directly standing against feminism is that not every woman who stands with it hates men. You need to 'divide and conquer' by bringing light to our issues and how women press them on us. People will do the math. Still, my opinions.

Your approach is wrong. Your point about reposts is valid but in my opinion mens rights is not radical enough. To many straight white men whom females and the world are trying to crush.

Because right now they are trying to crush white males ie: white male privelige. Next they are going to crush white feminism (see huff post white feminism video in YouTube) then the gender Queer till it's only non white women running it all.

The, thus is the problem with the stupid mens movement. You're all too bloody afraid to take the women on.
You just said it yourself, that misandry is accepted (I would even say embraced) by feminism.
Why not embrace misogony? Who gives a shit if some men think women are annoying and that females should get the same pay for the same productivity as a man.
Misogony is the new male Chauvinism..... Why does any man care if a woman calls him a misogonist?
