For example workplace harrasment by women towards males like touching or groping being ignored because the victim is male but if it where to happen to a woman by a male the male would be fired

That's a funny one because men are celebrated for suppressing emotions and women are penalisd for showing them.

Yeah the patriarchy is really just the ruling class using us to suppress each other.

Which is also funny because that leads directly to a lot of mental problems for these men.

I see a change is this trend, but a lot of damage has already been done and it will take quite a while to recover from this.

Hmmm, I think Kyle Rittenhouse and Gus Walz might have a different perspective. One displayed remorse through blubbering "tears" to play-act out of murder charges and one displayed genuine emotion for a successful family member. Both were pilloried for displaying emotion, fake or real.
