"Liar"?
How about instead of having an attitude problem with me, we both agree that neither men nor women should be abused and both genders have unique issues that, in a healthy society, would be acknowledged and addressed?
Or are you just here to argue with someone?
you’re choosing to use that to invalidate other people who go through that? Wow.
Wrong - And knock off the pearl-clutching. I'm literally the one who just said that the whole "Oppression Olympics" mentality is toxic and needs to go.
Don't misconstrue my message. This is not a zero-sum game. We can address the issues of both genders at once, and there's nothing "all lives matter-ish" about saying that.
I'm starting to get the idea that you aren't here to speak in good faith. If you're just here because you want to win an internet argument for "your side", go elsewhere for that.
Oh? Because I've experienced domestic violence at the hands of a woman.
Are you telling me that my life does not matter?
I refuse to belittle or diminish anyone's suffering who's been through domestic violence. Doesn't matter if they are a man or a woman, I hope that your neighbor finds away to get out of their abusive situation.
So, no answer then?
Oh, you got your answer. You just didn't like the answer - Probably because the answer acknowledged that men's problems actually exist in this regard, and you don't like that either.
You know what I didn't like? My ex beating the shit out of me, and getting away with it every single time because just because she's a woman.
What? Saying one thing is on a different level is not the same as saying the other doesn’t exist.
Well, a big part of men's problem here is plenty of people do say that in one way or another - That men's problems in this regard "don't exist".
I've experienced domestic violence before. She preferred to knock the shit out of me when I was sleeping. I don't care how strong you think you are, you aren't able to protect yourself when you are asleep.
I have flat-out had people tell me that "men cannot be abused by women, just like how a woman can't r-pe a man" when I've told people about the situation.
How else am I to interpret that, other than "your problems don't exist"?
Yes, they are both dicks.
Stop. Right there. That's all you need to say.
Cut off that other crap about men "running the most powerful government in the world". I guarantee the average man does not "run the world". I sure as hell don't. Do you? No? Then stop.
No more saying "My side has it worse, so your side doesn't deserve to have your problems addressed", neither gender should have their very real problems ignored.
There are no winners in the "Oppression Olympics", only losers. The first step towards not being a loser is to stop thinking like a loser.
Not-so-fun fact: If you call the domestic abuse hotline as a male who's experiencing violence at the hands of a woman, they will just hang up on you.
Source: I was in a physically abusive relationship and tried to call the domestic abuse hotline for advice, and they hung up on me.
LMAO let's not pretend like places such as /FemaleDatingStrategy don't exist. Misogynists and misandrists are two sides of the same coin. If I have no problem saying that misogynists like Andrew Tate are shitheads, then you can admit that man-hating misandrists are also shitheads.
And don't you start telling me "Oh, but woman-hating misogynists are worse" because then the conversation turns in to the "Oppression Olympics" and all people do is focus on arguing about who has it worse instead of focusing on actually fixing anybody's problems. Both misogynists and misandrists are bad, and both should be condemned.

GamerGate-tier slop. “tumblristas” or whatever have nowhere near the level of influence, power or damage to society as the manosphere.
By that logic, if someone punches you with brass knuckles then you have no right to complain because brass knuckles have nowhere near the level of power or damage-dealing ability to a person as a gun does.
Ah, so you're not just a Smoking Nazi, you're also a homophobic bigot. That's not helping your case at all, but it does make sense - You know who else hated cigarette smoke? Hitler, that's who.
Anything else you want to share? Maybe a dog whistle, or a "roman salute"? Hell, I bet you could think up at least 14 words you'd like to tell me, eh?
Libertarian here. That's a terrible idea, most of us are downright nutjobs. The only things us libertarians have going for us is that (unlike Democrats or Republicans) some of us are fully aware that our party is a joke, and sometimes when we screw things up it's amusing. Ever hear about the time we got an entire town over run by wild bears? I mean, bringing in actual wild bears might sound more entertaining than Democrats saying they'd rather be around bears than men, or the bear markets that Republicans have create with tariffs, but it's still not exactly good for the people living there.
I was addicted to alcohol for a long time. I get that addiction is a rough road but when I drank alcohol, no one was forced to drink with me.
Naah, instead of "forcing" people to drink with you, you ended up blowing way too much money on drinks for a stranger you just met because "you like their face", bet that person $100 that you could piss in a cup from across the bar, then when the bartender asked you to stop you asked her to "show you her tits", then punched the stranger you bought a drink for earlier because "you don't like their face", then after getting kicked out of the bar you call your ex at 2 in the morning proclaiming your undying love, right before driving wasted to get back home and end up t-boning some poor soul and putting them in the hospital.
Y'know. The standard type of stuff alcoholics do when abusing their drug of choice. But by all means, tell me more about how I'm the worst person on the planet because my cigarette happened to bother you a little, Mr. Chug-A-Lug. 😉
23% of Americans smoke which means 77% do not smoke. Smokers are clearly a minority. 29% of US males smoke compared to 17% of females.
LOL nobody cares about your 'research', shut up nerd.
You can poison yourself or masturbate covered in scat but do it in private.
I'd rather not know what you do in private with your scat, pal, and the fact that you're comparing smoking to a kink of yours is very weird.
No one wants to see or smell that nasty shit.
Well see, that's the thing - I enjoy it when Smoking Nazis like yourself get annoyed by my smoking. So if you are one of those people who go around lecturing strangers about smoking, then right off the bat I'm incentivized to smoke around you.
Yes. I am that petty.
Smokers are a minority. Far more people are non-smokers than are smokers. Bar owners who cater to smokers are shooting themselves in the foot.
Wrong. Actually, most club/bar owners really don't want people like YOU there, because nobody wants you pestering their customers and driving people away.
Lots of people who like to drink, dance and party avoid bars because they don’t like smoke.
^ See, here's how I know you're full of BS: I live in a major vacation area and there's only one single non-smoking club in the entire city.
Hawaii banned smoking in all buildings open to the public and within 100 feet of the entrance of any building open to the public. Not one bar or nightclub was forced to shut down. The idiots were just forced to poison themselves in private.
Then move to Hawaii. I know I'd feel better if people like you were stuck on an island hundreds of miles away from the mainland where you can't bother the rest of us.
Also, I'd like you to know that every time I encounter an annoying Smoking Nazi like yourself who love giving holier-than-thou lectures about smoking, I instinctually light up a cigarette while they give their anti-smoking lecture, and I intentionally blow the smoke right in their face.
Okay, how about we compromise? How about I just put up a sign that says "if you don't like the smoke, get the fuck out of my bar" and that way, you can just choose for yourself whether or not you'd like to give the place your business instead of expecting everyone else there to bend over backwards just to accommodate you?
Bro why are you so defensive about a bunch of poison-belching stink bombs?
^ See, funny thing about me is that when you say things like that, my brain actually interprets it as "Not only do I want you to smoke right next to me, but I also I want you to blow all the smoke right in my face after every puff you take".
Actually, let me update those wishes a bit: Not only do I hope your kids become smokers, but now I hope one of them gets a fulfilling, high-paying job as a tobacco company executive.
And after that? May your house be struck by lightning and burn to the ground, and the only thing that saves you from living under a bridge is the fact that your wealthy tobacco company executive offspring can afford to just buy you a new house with his hard-earned tobacco blood money, so that way every day you live your life knowing that your existence is subsidized entirely by smokers.
I hope you have kids and that they start smoking in their angst-ridden rebellious phase and become lifelong smokers because of it.
Not only that, but I also hope every time you get to see your kids, you smell smoke on their clothes and when you do, may it remind you of this time on lemmy when you said all smokers should find a faster way to kill themselves.
