Washington Post links MRM to Rodger

The fems are in a full-court press to rebrand the Men's Rights Movement, similar to the way conservatives rebranded liberalism in the late 60s: Bleeding Hearts, Tax and Spend, etc. The Rodgers affair was just a fortuitous incident for them. They have the bully pulpit, so if not Rodgers, it would've been something else.

Well any feminist who has a position as an editor is now linking mens rights with him. Dozens of articles are now claiming that he was a "mens rights" advocate.

Complete bs.

Yet another here: http://www.smh.com.au/world/elliot-rodger-and-the-creepy-world-of-the-pickup-artist-20140528-zrqg1.html#ixzz32yNuCiGM

Thing is, they know there isn't even the slightest hint of a link to the men's rights movement, but they're latching on to the PUA links and assuming without any basis whatsoever that it's a subset of the movement.

"PUA is linked with a broader movement that calls itself MRA – men’s rights activism. The movement’s aims are nebulous and varied. At its most basic, it seeks to reclaim the traditional territory of the "Alpha Male", one of sexual dominance, strength and privilege."

Seems astounding that such blatant straw man arguments go completely unchecked.

Mostly, it’s about sex. Or the lack thereof.

This is a boldfaced lie. It's about men getting screwed in all areas of our society, not about sex... which, quite frankly, is ridiculously easy to get.

Many men are socialized young to believe they are owed sex and attention from women.

This is the part they keep saying over and over which makes me laugh. I mean, seriously. Controlling access to their vaginas is one of the few times women actually exercise any agency whatsoever.

When all you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail. When all you have is a vagina, ....

I thought because it's a big mainstream paper it should be a separate post, apology if it shouldn't be.

What hurts me so much is I am about his age and never had any of ther advantages he had like BMWs and being supported by his parents even after he was an adult.

he never asked a girl out.

he was insane.

I wish I never posted this link. I got zero help and support. I got down voted for being worried about all this. I don't know who you people are.

You guys have been roasted, face it. And you will continue to get roasted whenever this stuff happens
