Lets take this to the media. If everybody underneath this comment could leave the email of a news outlet or journalist we could take this to that would help.

If you have a good example of an email for people to copy and use. That would help.

And feel free to share this post. The more people on board. The better.

The following is a copy of the email I've sent to various news outlets about this.

I welcome everybody else to do the same.

Hello. I've decided to send you an email with a story I am hoping you can cover.

You see, Reddit is a website wherein people can gather up in specific groups called "subreddits"

I frequently visit a number of subreddits that focus on men and men's issues. And there is a problem I have seen festering for some time there.

Young men and boys are being pushed to right wing radicalization. They're joining Q-anon groups and alt right groups. And I've come to understand where some of this push is coming from.

You see. There's a number of subreddits dedicated to harassment and hate towards these people. and as per the included image. The reddit admins allow it.

Anybody with any kind of knowledge about psychology will tell you that a constant stream of negativity, abuse and denial that any of this is a problem is damaging. And will eventually lead the people on the receiving end finding groups that accept and acknowledge them.

So when hurting underprivileged men go online to talk about their issues. Their feelings, Their lived experiences with things like rape and abuse. They're shut down. Denigrated, treated like they don't matter and nobody cares. They get the message that they are simply making up issues and that they are the source of their own problem. If not the perpetrator.

They're called names like "scrote" or "fragile" or "autistic mouthbreathing virgins" and bullied for this.

This inevitably leads them into a further spiral of Addiction, Depression, Radicalization and Suicide.

And many will choose to lash out against women. Because much of the above is done under the guise of women's empowerment. In much the same way Transphobia is pushed by TERF's

The unfortunate truth is that if you are maximally mean to innocent people, then eventually bad things will happen to you. First, because you have no room to punish people any more for actually hurting you. Second, because people will figure if they’re doomed anyway, they can at least get the consolation of feeling like they’re doing you some damage on their way down.
