Everyone here should also subscribe to a non-reddit men's rights forum. The best ones are the most independent.

It's difficult to arrange for a potential mass migration. One of our mods set up a fallback blog and forum on another server a few years ago, but nobody used it.

If you have any links to such forums, please post them as replies to this comment.

I also suggest that you join MHRAconnect and start a project there. It's small right now, but active members will build it up.

When you sign up, please browse the other projects to see if you are interested. Please pass this message to any men's rights activists you know.

Ha! Yea that's never gonna happen.

How is that still a default sub...

[–]MichaelRahmani 7 points8 points9 points 8 years ago (5 children) | Copy Link

It's not. Default subs aren't a thing anymore. (They made the change about half a year ago.)

[–]The_Best_01 2 points3 points4 points 8 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link

Wait, so if a new user goes to the front page, they won't see anything?

[–]TuringTestBot 2 points3 points4 points 8 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

They see this. Instructions on how to subscribe to subs and a link to /r/popular.

[–]The_Best_01 1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

Oh cool. How about if you're not a user?

[–]MichaelRahmani 1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Then it would show r/popular.

Expect the 'punch fascists' bullshit to never be policed.

I didn't realize protecting the Constitution was frowned upon by the same crowd that lobbies against gun control in similar vein

[–]FeierInMeinHose 3 points4 points5 points 8 years ago (6 children) | Copy Link

Which part of the constitution is punching Nazis protecting?

[–]MikeyMike01 3 points4 points5 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

The right to unhurt fee fees

[–]JaceXAnders -5 points-4 points-3 points 8 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link

All of it? Nazis are against democracy. Pick up a textbook a read a little.

[–]Aeponix 8 points9 points10 points 8 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

You realize that freedom of speech is part of the constitution, right? Infringing on a Nazi's free speech is fighting against the constitution, not for it. Free speech for Nazi's is important, because setting the precedent for violent suppression of people you disagree with means any group that is viewed as hateful could be next.

If you allow nazis to get punched just for speaking their ideas, men's rights activists are next. We're one of the other big enemies in the eyes of the left.

Also, nobody takes nazis seriously. Until you start violently suppressing them and proving their point. Their whole argument is that they are being oppressed by foreigners and foreign allies. Then a bunch of sjws go and literally oppress them by stopping them from speaking. So now they look like they are right, and a bunch of other white people who feel disenfranchised start joining up.

If those idiots just left the nazis alone, they would have remained a fringe element that 99/100 people completely ignore, because their ideas are ridiculous. But when someone is saying they are being oppressed, and you prove them right, people start to side with the oppressed group.

[–]JaceXAnders -2 points-1 points0 points 8 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

Nazis don't give two shits about the constitution. Why should we stand idly by and watch them destroy our democracy, like they did to so many countries 70 years prior?

They shouldn't be given the rights of a citizen if they don't believe in those rights for everyone. Period.

[+]Junkbunkfunk1 points 8 years ago [recovered] (1 child) | Copy Link

Communists don't respect the constitution either, and they're actively working to undermine it. So that means violence against communists is justified, and I consider anyone to the left of Pinochet a communist.

Do it for america, punch a commie today!

[–]JaceXAnders 1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Aye. I concur. Marx explicitly calls for violent revolution as the only means of truly being able to topple the Capitalists. Tot hat end, he was more in line with Fascism than he would ever realize.

The problem with punching a communist today, however, is that there's not many of them left. Maybe we'll see a sudden surge int eh coming decade or two, like we're seeing with the Neo Nazi movement, but at the moment socialism is much more popular with the left than communism.

[–]DontTrustRedditors 1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Tell, how exactly is violating the right to free association and expression 'protecting the constitution'.

You people are the nazis you're so terrified of.

[–]JaceXAnders -1 points0 points1 point 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Nazis are against democracy. They don't believe all people are equal under the state, and thus those they deem less than them don't deserve the same rights. They only believe in rights for themselves.

You only believe on your right to hate speech, not in anyone else's. We let you run ypur mouths for years and now we have a Facist as a puppet president who's actively destroying our democracy and economy.

So its time you either take ownership, or move to a non-democratic state. Because we've jad enough of your bullshit destroying our nation for decades.

[–]JaceXAnders 1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Do you have any specific examples?

[–]Pz5 13 points14 points15 points 8 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

There is a mensrights section on voat https://voat.co/v/mensrights

There are dozens of us!

Only right wing leaning subreddit will go.

and it's gone.

[–]BlueOrange22 71 points72 points73 points 8 years ago (21 children) | Copy Link

I've thought before we should have some kind of contingency plan in case this happens, like an off Reddit site to go to if we do get banned.

I've noticed more trolling attacks here, the bigger we get the more desperate SJWs will be to shut us down. They know they can't hold their own against us in a fair debate, so all they do is cheat tactics.

[–]Lethn 10 points11 points12 points 8 years ago (14 children) | Copy Link

I recommend sites like Steemit or Bitchute, maybe even Voat, all of these are genuine options to reddit and I think people are right to be wary.

[–]ThatNinaGAL 21 points22 points23 points 8 years ago* (5 children) | Copy Link

Voat is tough for me to use. Not because it hurts my tender feelings to be followed around by Jew-haters, but because I am constantly derailed when trying to discuss non-Jew-related issues such as men's rights. Are Steemit and Bitchute less deluged by those pests?

[–]Lethn 4 points5 points6 points 8 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link

They don't seem to hang around that much there actually, they're still about, don't get me wrong, but the thing about actual anti-semites and the racial collectivists is they're just reverse SJWs, they hate being questioned and debated just as much as the SJWs do.

I can understand about Voat but I'd just put people who internet stalk you on block personally, don't let them get to you.

[–]ThatNinaGAL 3 points4 points5 points 8 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

I'd be open to trying that. I haven't used Voat for about a year, glad to hear that the slugs have largely crawled back under their rocks.

I really, really prefer uncensored forums. But life is too short to spend in arguing with people whose fundamental premise is so fucking stupid.

[–]Lethn 0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Just block them then :P they are pretty easy to wind up though if you know how.

[–]ThePigmanAgain 0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Try Kialo. They claim to be civilized and rational. Popped up in my Facebook feed while i was doing something uncivilized and irrational.

[–]ThatNinaGAL 0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

LMFAO. "While venturing into the Dark Side, our hero takes note of a new device that may be usefully employed by adherents of the Light Side..."

[–]Aeternalis_ 9 points10 points11 points 8 years ago (7 children) | Copy Link

Voat is a mess. I have an account there and wanted to use it but it's just right wingers and natsocs all over the place.

[–]Lethn 15 points16 points17 points 8 years ago (5 children) | Copy Link

As opposed to all the deranged left wingers, anti-trumpers, communists, socialists and feminists infesting Reddit? :P

[–]Aeternalis_ 5 points6 points7 points 8 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link

The anti trump jerk is annoying but I'd rather have that than deranged natsocs. I hate communists and feminists but reddit has more content and a bigger userbase so I'm willing to bite the bullet.

[–]MikeyMike01 1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

I wouldn’t. Right-wing extremists are annoying, left-wing extremists are dangerous.

Reddit definitely has the content though, you’re right about that.

[–]Aeternalis_ 2 points3 points4 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Both of them are dangerous, they're just dangerous in different ways.

[–]Lethn 0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

I guess it must be because I'm an Anarchist and I'm used to the fuckers trying to hijack the Ancap sub, but honestly I think even though they're deranged they do actually stick to their corners fairly politely, I tend to just respond with anime and pro-Israel comments.

They don't spam, they don't stalk and they don't doxx people, say what you will about them and they do have detestable views the fact is they mostly keep to themselves unlike the Communists and Socialists because they actually understand the internet and know they'd get their arses kicked if they tried shit in real life.

The anti-capitalists are learning the hard way now that people aren't going to put up with them for much longer, there are unspoken rules on the internet and they're breaking them constantly, well not unspoken rules, more like boundaries.

[–]Aeternalis_ 3 points4 points5 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I have noticed that. When I've debated fascists/natsocs they've always been far more civil and polite than communists. Doesn't make their views any better, but at the very least they won't resort to cop outs and stupid shit like that.

[–]a-man-from-earth 0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Gab is a lot like that too.

[–]RonTomJohnson 7 points8 points9 points 8 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

No kidding. The concern trolling is out of hand. Almost every post you have someone commenting, asking or stating how it isn't a men's rights issue. They'll tell everyone to go to men's school, run by feminists, and try saying it's the same thing.

[–]BlueOrange22 8 points9 points10 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

It's clearly an organized and cooedinated effort, I recognize the same language patterns usually seen from SJWs.

[–]AudioAssassyn 0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

The last few times I've posted here it's resulted in some SJW arguing in circles about their safe space and how terrible we are.

[–]meeelting 0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Better to just form a new subreddit. Voat is a cesspit and steemit is too small to generate any kind of public debate.

[–]ThePigmanAgain 0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Re trolling attacks. If our mods weren't such pussies, they'd shut those fuckers down before the attack was even noticed.

[–]ee4m 27 points28 points29 points 8 years ago (11 children) | Copy Link

That is a totally editorialized head line.

We arent right leaning.

[–]Western_Ways 11 points12 points13 points 8 years ago* (5 children) | Copy Link

Since when have MRAs been accurately depicted by their political opponents?

As far as feminists are concerned, we're a bunch of seal clubbing, puppy raping, alt-right supporting, Illuminati henchmen that want to strip women of any and all human rights in order to pave the way for a perfect world where females become nothing more than axlotl tanks.

[–]The_Best_01 0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

Axlotl tanks? As in the amphibian? That doesn't make any sense.

[–]porphyro 1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

[–]pintocat 3 points4 points5 points 8 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

It's getting better, but there have been quite a few alt right linked sites on here. Makes it harder to have people see us as reasonable when we link to articles on shitbag sites

[–]ee4m 0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I actually think manu think we are reasonable and alt right try to use us as a way into the mainstream.

[–]Thesauruswrex -2 points-1 points0 points 8 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Bullshit, there are plenty of right wingers here that are a hair away from being full blown nazis. Look at the comments in this thread, for fuck's sake. They infest everything having to do with men's rights like a fucking plague.

MGTOW and Redpill are like walking around a white rights parade. Now they come here and fuck this up, too because they fuck up everything that they touch.

[–]ee4m 0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

They are unwanted though. I think its time to have a political stance, because the right minority have jumped the shark.

[–]DarthRoacho 42 points43 points44 points 8 years ago (24 children) | Copy Link

I doubt it. Theyre banning subs that openly call for violence. While sometimes you get people in here like that, its pretty rare.

Edit: They havent banned T_D so im pretty sure this sub is safe.

[–]bufedad 31 points32 points33 points 8 years ago (21 children) | Copy Link

No, they aren't. They are banning right wing subs that they can find an excuse to do so.

Some subs with no calls to violence are being banned as part of this purge.

[–]Schkateboarda 6 points7 points8 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

This sub isn't necessarily right wing though. Feminism/men's rights isn't black and white when it comes to politics. I'd say that Men's Rights tends to be more unknown in the liberal circle that's dominated by feminism, but every other liberal I have talked to about this has come to the conclusion that there are men's rights issues, and that feminism can, and often is toxic to TRUE gender equality.

[–]Im-going-underground 15 points16 points17 points 8 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

Latestagecapitalism users are constantly advocating violence. I was banned for telling the pro-violence set that they are nuts.

[–]ColonelSwede 3 points4 points5 points 8 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Socialists subreddits on reddit have all gone the way of hardline Stalinism. f you're just a little bit to the right from a guy who murdered 30 million of his own people, you're out.

[–]fuckyoubanhappymods 0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I once got banned from one of those socialism subs because the mods didn't detect i was being sarcastic.. Fucking hellholes. I don't want to go there even though i dislike capitalism

[–]Ferg8 5 points6 points7 points 8 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

Like what? Because that makes no sense to me.

[–]Mayocide_Now 4 points5 points6 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

[–]ColonelSwede 1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

This place has never been politicaly aligned and there is no way they could spin it otherwise. While we do get an occasional nutjob, it's almost always been leftist and rightists, socialist and libertarians, rubbing elbows together and discussing men's issues.

[–]bufedad -1 points0 points1 point 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

This place has never been politicaly aligned and there is no way they could spin it otherwise.

There's no way they could spin the MRM as alt-right? You mean like the media is already doing? How could they possibly do what's already being done.

[–]heimdahl81 -1 points0 points1 point 8 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Just because a lot of right wing subs advocate violence doesn't mean they are targeting right wing subs. Besides, Mens Rights is nonpartisan.

[–]bufedad 0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Troll harder next time.

[+]WhiteAsTheNut -13 points-12 points-11 points 8 years ago (9 children) | Copy Link

No they are banning shit that's violent. They do it to subreddits that hate white people too.

[–]bufedad 5 points6 points7 points 8 years ago (7 children) | Copy Link

And yet, that isn't the case.

[–]WhiteAsTheNut -1 points0 points1 point 8 years ago (6 children) | Copy Link

[–]bufedad 5 points6 points7 points 8 years ago (5 children) | Copy Link

You didn't read the article.

[–]WhiteAsTheNut 4 points5 points6 points 8 years ago* (4 children) | Copy Link

The problem with the article is it's wrong. The admins banned violent subreddits. They banned a "leftist" subreddit "WhitesAreCriminals", and it banned NatSoc subreddits. It's arguing that they're banning extremist subreddits when they aren't, LateStageCapitalism and Socialism would both be banned. They are banning violent subreddits. This is just right wing garbage media that's spoonfeeding you guys shit. Also it's not that these things are "apparently violent" it's that these guys are shown to be violent. They post violent nationalistic hate posts. Socialism is about equality at heart. Nationalism isn't about that. And many people on these subreddits are violent.

Yep I think this subreddit has gone down the alt-right shitter. Unfortunately banning these subreddits makes the cancer move to other subreddits. This post shouldn't even have any upvotes since it's a non-issue for us. If TheRedPill hasn't been banned yet we aren't gonna be banned. As long as we keep our views the same. The second we become an alt-right shitfest fuck it I'm leaving and going over to r/MensLib and don't care if this subreddit is banned to be honest.

[–]bufedad 6 points7 points8 points 8 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

It's arguing that they're banning extremist subreddits when they aren't, LateStageCapitalism and Socialism would both be banned.

And yet, they've already purged the "violent" subs... and these two weren't banned...

So, you were saying?

[–]WhiteAsTheNut 1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

That those two subreddits aren't violent. Sure they're technically extremists or whatever, but they aren't violent. They don't think an entire ethnic group should die. That's why they aren't banned.

[–]bufedad 2 points3 points4 points 8 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

LateStageCapitalism sure as hell IS violent.

But that's on the correct side of the political spectrum... so they are immune.

[–]WhiteAsTheNut2 points 8 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link

Not really. Most of it's basically r/hailcorporate but not posts just anti industry. As a matter of fact the most posts aren't praising genocidal leaders. Just anti corporation stuff. Quit acting like the right is always targeted for media and social oppression. You're playing the victim card the same thing feminists do. It's not like "Oh they're socialists so they are accepted" in fact I believe America had something called the Cold War where everyone was fucking anti socialist.

[–]Brusanan 8 points9 points10 points 8 years ago* (0 children) | Copy Link

You're using the normal-person definition of "violence" rather than the SJW definition. SJWs live in a bizarro world where any concept (Racism, Sexism, Violence, etc.) can be expanded indefinitely until every tiny little thing that is even mildly offensive to them can be labelled using one of these buzzwords when they need to defeat an idea with moral outrage rather than arguing against it intellectually. Social psychologist Jonathan Haidt describes this as "Concept Creep".

To an SJW, words are "violence". Haidt had a "debate" with a SJW student and some faculty at his school where the student tried to use "violence" in this exact way:

https://youtu.be/qTU3hxgr2Kc?t=1312

And he talks about this new SJW definition of "violence" in his recent article in The Atlantic:

They won't ban t_d because it'd ruin their website. Half a million angry internet autists shitposting the hell out of every sub? Mods wouldn't even come close to handling that save for locking their subs down.

As for the rest: you know leftists, speech is violence.

I understand the paranoia, but some people in this thread are taking it too far. As far as I’m concerned this is not, nor should it ever be a political sub. That being said, it’s also disturbing to see the SJW conspiracy. Sure there are loads of feminazis on this site (cough cough r/twoxchromosomes), but assuming all women that believe in gender equality are out for our necks doesn’t make us look any better than r/incels.

[–]AlekseiDanilov 2 points3 points4 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

From other subs i understand that they're targetting any sub that doesn't deal with incitements to violence.

So assuming any comments on here advocating violence are dealt with properly, this place should be fine.

[–]Adanu0 2 points3 points4 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Far as I'm concerned, we can and should talk about politics... but it should never be about who is right or wrong. It should be about how we can get involved in politics to further the MRM.

[–]a-man-from-earth -1 points0 points1 point 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

It's about men's rights. How can it not be political?

[–]primo_pastafarian6 points 8 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link

No. This sub does not advocate or glorify violence. If anything, one of the issues here is domestic abuse AGAINST men and how to stop it.

[–]ColonelSwede 2 points3 points4 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Let's not get paranoid all of a sudden.

[–]Creature_73L 1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I noticed that too. Many subs that were controversial can no longer be looked up by nearing searching for them.

[–]omegaphallic 1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

I don't see this sub being targeted, MRAs aren't popular on the left, but they aren't as hated as The_Donald except by the most extreme elements.

The redpillars are probably fucked, the PUAs are too a politically, but if they start getting smeared with third party sexual assault accusations it could happen.

[+]primo_pastafarian1 points 8 years ago* [recovered] (1 child) | Copy Link

TRP is going to be just fine. They do not advocate for or glorify violence.

[–]omegaphallic 0 points1 point2 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I just think they would be a higher priority for those who who censor then us, but you could be right and I hope so.

[–]Aatch 1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

While the application of this new rule may be biased (hard to tell, this site doesn't exactly seem unbiased itself), the fact that one of the affected subreddits is "WhitesAreCriminals" suggests that the rule isn't some cover for an anti-right-wing conspiracy.

It's difficult to present MRAs as actively encouraging hate or violence. The evidence just doesn't exist. Sure, we get some crazies, but you only have to look at their comments in context to realise that they aren't tolerated here. (A good trick is to find comments on heavily-downvoted posts, since people aren't going to spend much time downvoting the comments for those posts).

[–]BruceCampbell123 1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I can't see this happening.

[–]WhiteAsTheNut 7 points8 points9 points 8 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link

Guys don't worry. As long as the alt right shitheads don't flood us and make us a hate subreddit we will be fine.

[–]WaltzRoommate -4 points-3 points-2 points 8 years ago* (3 children) | Copy Link

"Even though society says men are privileged and don't need advocacy, we believe they do and so we advocate for men." - MRAs

"White people don't need advocates; haven't you heard the cultural zeitgeist?" - Also MRAs apparently.

[–]WhiteAsTheNut 5 points6 points7 points 8 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

The alt right isn't about advocating white people. It's about hatred. If you've ever seen alt righters. Lots defend Naziism and fascism.

[–]WaltzRoommate -2 points-1 points0 points 8 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

"Despite what feminists and others say, the MRM isn't about hating women. It's about advocating for men." ~ MRAs.

"The alt right isn't about advocating for white people; haven't you heard the cultural zeitgeist?" ~ MRAs apparently.

[–]heimdahl81 1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

MRAs are about equality. The alt right is about white supremacy. There is no equivalency.

Could fucking be. There's always the odd alt-right asshole posting breitbart shit here.

The mods here need to get their shit together and start removing this alt-right bullshit before it starts. If they are alt-right supporters, then get the fuck out, ya assholes.

There is already more than enough of this nazi bullshit associated with men's rights and the only thing that it is doing is hurting the cause and making anyone who stands up for men's rights get immediately assosciated with 'white power', 'anti-jewish', 'force women and black people into slavery', or some other nonsense. Fuck that and fuck those nazi pieces of shit.

Yep. They're going to ban every subreddit that even hints that men have any problems at all because of their gender in The West. They will ban all of our accounts too.

Did I say they are equal in some way ? "If T_D stays",like,if even this shithole is allowed,there is no way they are banning us.

[+]atred1 points 8 years ago [recovered] (2 children) | Copy Link

Yes, but I don't see T_D being banned impossible or even improbable... saying if T_D stays and does this subreddit doesn't assure anybody of anything.

I realize you are trolling, but for anyone else that reads this, Serena Williams is significantly wealthier and more famous than Alexis. Google says $9 million versus $150 million. So if she married him for his money, that would be ridiculous.

Why? We have a free and open discussion about gender issues. Try going to feminisms sub and so much as ask a question, or post a source showing something like the wage gap being up for debate. There will be no discussion. You will be banned. When you ask why, you'll be called a misogynist, and muted. All because you dared look up contrary sources and citations, no matter how compelling the source actually is, or who wrote it. You toe the narrative, or are banned. Again, go on any of feminists subs, ask if the wage gap or rape culture is real, and watch how fast you're banned.

[+]papa_blesss -6 points-5 points-4 points 8 years ago (6 children) | Copy Link

You've proved my point in your very first sentence. This sub reddit isn't about equality for men. It's slinging shit at feminist. From what I've seen on here is nothing short of disgusting trash talking that doesn't help anything. Down vote my comments see if I give a shit. At the end of the day you're just a bunch of sad cunts that blame other people for your short comings

[–]RonTomJohnson 4 points5 points6 points 8 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link

I proved a point, by pointing out that at least you can talk here? If i tried talking on feminisms sub, I would be banned, doing exactly what you're doing here now. You just sound like a butt hurt feminist, mad that your BS is starting to be called out more and more.

Also, I didn't down vote you... Relax, they're just fake internet points redeemable nowhere. Enjoy having the freedom to talk here. I don't agree with you, but again, at least you can talk and comment. We don't have that luxary. We do it because feminists are easily debated, and then others can see the arguments for themselves.

Do you have an issue you'd like to discuss? Or, are you just going to act like a whiney twelve year olf? I wouldn't say me pointing out that we don't censor is, flinging shit, as you put it. Since it is an objective and demonstrable fact. If they don't want people to call them out. Maybe, just maybe, they could lay off the censorship so people from both sides can converse? The reason we are critical of feminism, is because they fight against men's rights issues. Take NOW, the biggest feminist organization in the world. In the year 2017, are still lobbying governments around the world to not let men have equal custody in divorce when both parents are deemed fit. Let that sink in. The biggest feminist group in the world, who claims to despise traditional gender roles. Actively fights to make sure that women get custody, and basically pigeon holes them into a traditional gender role of child caretaker. Seems like they want their cake and to be able to eat it.

Now, I doubt you actually care about any of that, and are just going to keep acting like an angry child. If so, please, go away. We don't have time for misandrists here with a chip on their shoulder. Again, do you have an issue you would like to discuss or are you just going to insult people and stay on your fake high horse?

This sub reddit isn't about equality for men. It's slinging shit at feminist.

Admittedly, yes partly. I don't like that part either, but it's just a very small part of the community. Every group have people that take it way too far. Feminist, Dem/Rep, left/right, etc..

Men's Rights is doing a lot of good things. More importantly, Men's Rights accepts people with different views to discuss here.

Please keep an open mind, try to understand why people are here. The hate on feminist isn't okay, but out right hating Men's Rights is also not okay.
