If you’re a man wondering what you can do about the Cornell 7 situation: cut off that guy you know who has committed assault. That’s literally it. Tell him to his face, “I can’t be friends with people who act like this”.
@danirabbit Then tell the police. You never know, they might do their job… 😒
@danirabbit I am a man. I approve of this message.
@danirabbit But if we just start ostracizing and casting out any and all transgressive men, all those ostracized men will group together and create pod casts and things about a newly constructed misogynistic world view that draws in young disenfranchised boys who then become a formidable political force who vote in crazy fascists who tear down our democracies and just start doing bad things because they can and there are no more consequences.
Think of how bad that might be!
@danirabbit FUCK yeah
I mentioned the most evil person I've met in my life over the weekend, he was trying to threaton me with his lawyer
"He got me off on an SA charge, he's gonna get ALL your jobs"
That was when I stopped trying to verbally deescalate him, little bastard can get fucked
@danirabbit jfc esp the ones that don’t even acknowledge that that behavior *is* assault……so fucking tired
Auto blocking anyone even remotely close to posting “not all men”. I’m too tired dude.
@danirabbit not all men are decent human beings. :)
@danirabbit I've had that response so. many. times. I don't even post or engage with posts where that reply could conceivably turn up eventually.
It's fucking exhausting.
@danirabbit What I've never understood about that take on the topic is...how many men are you friends with who has committed assault? Or any crime?
It isn't like most people are hanging out with criminals, or folks in prison. Most of us are "normal", not homicidal maniacs assaulting people in our free time. Like most adults, I live at home, raise my kids, teach my teenagers how to drive, convince them to do their homework, typical stuff.
It isn't like "men" provide safe harbour to folks like the "Cornell 7". We're not out here trying to cause all sorts of pain to fellow humans, much less our mothers, sisters, and daughters.
@charette @danirabbit That’s a lot of words just to say ‘not all men’
@danirabbit I can't be friends with Fraternities.
