Ain't that the truth

I would also add the vulnerability of male children to the list of things they never bring up except as a weapon. young boys are often treated by society as if they're just mini adults, to the point where nobody looks twice if their sexually harassed or assaulted. But men never bring this up in an attempt to change it. It's only ever used as an ammo to fling at women and say "actually, we're just as if not more oppressed."
As a trans woman who dealt with that pretransition, that one really stings to me. Nobody cares about helping people like me, we're just a weapon to be used.

Check the post about the rise of the manosphere. Shockingly the top and first comments were all blaming wimmenz for it

Autistic gay man here. You are absolutely right about certain important issues being neglected, especially now, although there's a few important general complications about common narratives on the subject.

Part of it is how hard guys have been shut down when trying to help those in need.

A big part is intentionally divisive propaganda, which is more commonplace than people realize. How BLM and antifa got quickly painted as antagonistic and evil. valid attempts to deal with men's issues also got slandered until all the progressives left the space, or killed themselves, like the guy who was trying to create Canada's first men's shelter after surviving abuse.

Those trying to address the division and promote cooperation with feminism were met with incredulity, and images of severed penises, because of the narrative was that there could be no valid men's issues.

Many years and dead friends later, I'm still getting banned from most spaces for just trying to talk about communication issues and how minority groups are affected by social constructs of reciprocal division.

Keep in mind, no group is perfectly homogenous. TERFS exist and are a problem, but we don't want to throw the baby out with the bathwater and renounce all of feminism due to the anti trans idiots. If feminism was younger and smaller, I'm sure propagandists would try that to increase hate for feminism, freeing abandoned feminist spaces for bad actors, like how incels took over completely once the good actors and progressives gave up on men's spaces due to slander and demoralization. Note that much of the aggression experienced by both sides is fabricated via third party. I've seen entire media groups come and go, doing nothing but spreading misinformation about anything divisive, up to and including the hillary emails, the science surrounding the reality of trans people, and there are articles about how the black community is propaganda target #1.

Weirdly, atheists also got a lot of targeted heat back then from these same propagandists, usually for actively fighting the growing cults that fed what MAGA became. the same christo fascists are now using lies about furries as an excuse to defund schools and keep the cycle of ignorance going. Heritage foundations and other well funded anti progressive establishments have been working hard keeping progressives attacking each other, and not finding solidarity in any capacity. Even just general anti circumcision sentiment got turned into "us vs them." because you can't be generally against baby genial mutilation without also being an incel equivalent, etc. Because the religious right to cut babies somehow became necessary for protecting feminism? This is what happens when social vibes take over actual communication, fueled by oligarch funded targeted aggression, snowballing into recursive justified grievances dissolving any pretense of solidarity between progressives.

Personally I just want everyone free from suffering, and for humanity to find solidarity and compassion, and to learn how to communicate.

This continues to be extremely unpopular.

Oh, do they complain about us in Ask Lemmy?

Convince me I don't want to peek inside. PLEASE!
