A user confronts r/AskMenAdvise on one question; "Is it just me, or is this sub quickly getting overran by redpill philosophy?"
Buttery comment threads:
There's a bunch of men that hate women in this sub, that's for sure Edit: The fact that this comment is down voted is VERY telling. Lotsa incels up in this bitch
"feminism thinks all men are evil and the root of all problems" is a pretty common red pill sentiment I've seen here a couple times. Might just be people thinking "patriarchy" means "all men" (183 replies)
To be fair, feminist spaces seem to have better advice on accepting and managing emotions than fuckin redpill and manosphere spaces.
JFC THIS thank you!!!! I literally just posted about how I, as a woman infiltrating the space of course, literally cannot make any simple mistake or make neutral comments without getting ATTACKED with violent misogynist comments… and again I’m not even that active on here and I really am not here to pick fights either!
I thought this was Askmenadvice, not Menslib, what ever the fuck that is
the examples are all over this comment thread But go ahead and just downvote this instead of acknowledging that OP has a point
Critical of a woman does not, critical of all women does. There is a lot of the latter here.
Yes it does. If there's an ounce of honesty in you, just think about what it would mean to have a woman be critical of men, full stop, without being misandrist. Don't criticise "women" or "men". That's never neutral. Criticise behaviours, cultural trends, values, things that can be acted on and changed.
I find this argument to be such bullshit honestly. The toxic traits we're being told aren't OK anymore are things like sexual harassment. I'm a normal man and don't feel persecuted in that way at all
Why do you feel anything OP described is synonymous with masculinity?
OP's replies to comments
Why should we listen relationship and dating advice from people with failed marriages? Why should we support a message of sour grapes?
You know the term has context outside of subreddit titles?
I've found that man-hating comments are buried under a mountain of downvotes within minutes of posting. Said posts do exist, but they're so unpopular it almost doesn't matter. This type of sentiment is so unpopular that I don't see it as a threat. More often than not these comments are at -50 within 30 minutes if the comment has good real-estate. I also just don't think that man-hating and redpill styled content are the same beast, either. They're separate issues. Different root causes. Different solutions. They aren't a mirror.
