When men are not heard they simply seek other audiences and other avenues. It is the incentive structures that will tell them where to go.
The fact that they don't get listened to causes them to double down into extremism.
Our current levels of extremism have put us in danger of sliding into becoming a totalitarian state. That risk will not lessen unless both sides recognize that extremism itself is the danger. Underneath the anger, angry people are often hurt people. Labeling them enemies and hurting them further certainly feels good in the moment. But in the long run it is counterproductive.
It turned out not to be.
> What exactly are people not hearing? Say the quiet part out loud already.
There are no hidden messages here. If you think there are I suggest you seek a licensed psychiatrist.
> It is the fact they can no longer openly shit on women and minorities and homosexuals and trans people that they have issues with.
> The fact that being white and having a white name are not enough to be granted a favorable job.
That didn't happen. I just made that up. Was that also your first instinct upon reading it - that I made it up?
But I see men saying things like this happened to them, and that is my first instinct: it didn't happen and they made it up.
Am I supposed to stop doing that? Am I supposed to believe them?
Listening to real problems is good - are you saying I should listen to obvious trolls as well? That is what "bad faith" means - it's a euphemism for "obviously trolling".
Perhaps you even think I'm lying when I say I see people saying things like this online - but if that's the case, that means you're part of the same problem you cite, since you're not listening what I'm saying. Can you propose a solution to all this?
