    You’re not helping to eliminate bigotry by enabling their hypocrisy, you’re only helping them.

    What you’re not getting, and what you don’t understand, is that they’re not actually accusing the post of bigotry in good faith. They’re doing it only to further the interests of misogynists, and their hypocrisy is the proof. Unless you want us to believe they actually care about what happens to women.

    The motivation of a speaker dictates the context of their statements and therefore the truth value of it.

    This is why we respond by dismissing their accusations – and yours. If you cared about bigotry, it’d be you calling them out. It’d be you telling them what you just told me.

    So for those of you playing at home, what do we do with blatantly hypocritical bigots and abusers, and their enablers? That’s right, we dismiss and ignore them.

      Enabling their hypocracy? It isn’t exactly unfair to call out this kind of joking when a cornerstone of men’s issues is that they often aren’t taken seriously when things like mental health issues arise. They’re often dismissed with jokes or belittled.

      In other words, the person who came in joking failed to read the room and got called out for it. Would you defend someone saying, even facetiously 'bet she’s just saying that for attention ’ in a rape support thread?

        Cry harder, you whiny, enabling, sexist piece of shit. You’re exactly the person defending the monsters who demand to know what women were wearing when they were raped. That’s exactly what you’re defending, because you’re sad other dick wielders are on the receiving end of the kind of treatment they’ve been giving women for thousands of years.

        You can dish it out but you just can’t take it.

        Like all hypocrites.

          Sounds like you’re working through some personal issues there, champ. Wanna air them out?

          Cry harder, you whiny, enabling, sexist piece of shit.

          you’re sad other dick wielders

          You really expect people to take your opinions to heart and maybe change their minds and agree with you, while speaking to them like this?

          If you’re here to just make yourself feel better, especially if you’ve been hurt, then by all means, continue. We don’t mind the verbage pollution. /s

          However, if you’re here to express ideas and have conversation that may lead to understanding, you’ll need to work on your temper/tone.

          And if you just want to flame me for pointing this out, then continue on, Internet Warrior. Or don’t, you’re not making things any better here if you do.

      Oh horseshit, you said you’re cool with making bigoted jokes now that the shoe is on the other foot. Get fucked with the whole righteous indignation spiel.
