No that's very executive dysfunction coded

I agree that we need to treat men (and indeed everyone, we're all victims) with compassion and care. However, I think these conversations often turn into tone policing our own community more than those who attack it

In progressive spaces, we need to make room for anger and negative emotion because they are how we express the injustices of the world. The problem is, how do we allow people to express that anger safely, without causing harm. To that, I don't know the answer, but I have personally found art quite helpful

Idk, I'm trying to also be sympathetic to that anger because it often comes from a place of hurt

Also practices like that reinforce the gendered division of labour. As men get jobs, women are usually left to pick up the slack of care responsibilities. This leaves them financially dependent on those men. So both men and women suffer, but the system leaves women with less agency than men.

(Also nonbinary, queer, and third gender people are treated even worse)

This is actually one of his dogwhistle tactics. He makes some comics that are more vague on his political beliefs and some that are explicit, so that he still gets algorithm boosts

You do this already. If you are part of a church or friend group or organisation or whatever, you usually sort out issues when they come up by talking to one another. Saying people are going to vote is a weird framing of normal collaboration, because most of the time we agree on decisions by talking and compromising
