    No it isn’t true, because it’s a broad stereotyping and generalization based upon “they who scream loudest” and negates any local culture or even considers the concept of a silent majority. Basically you’re throwing billions of people and thousands of cultures under the bus cause it makes you feel superior.

    It’s the same kind of thinking that helps to create more chauvenists, because you’re basically feeding people the “us vs them” mentality, also known as “otherisms”, that is the bread and butter of fascist, nationalists and the like that want you to think in those terms - because that allows them to prey on weak and infirm, who feel powerless to that type of shaming tactic, which then makes them go against the concept of humanism, because “all men bad” is empirically untrue. That then gives them an opening to think in the terms of their oppressor, because it is STILL a class struggle.

    You want it to be true as a matter of toxic mentality - which includes toxic femininity, which is the core of TERF thinking - and rhetoric as a tactic to try and shame people into being agreeable to your point. But it will instead have the opposite effect, which means your mentality and false axioms cause more harm than good. In effect it becomes a self fulfilling prophecy, because it is blatant disinformation that refuses to see the actual problems of the world. That’s why the world of psychiatry has said it clearly: “men bad” basically becomes a feedback loop.

    If you think bro casts, think tanks and political interests are a 1:1 with the thinking of the general populace, you have put on the jogging suit and drink deeply from the KoolAid bowl because it is cheaper than therapy.

    When you use terms like “them”, I can’t help but think that you’re misandrist - and as I tell people all the time: misandry is just the other side of the patriarchy coin, opposite to misogyny. That in turn feeds the fire of chauvenism.

    I.e you’re apart of the problem.
