    Geekandmisandry. Misandry ie. someone who hates men.

    Well at least you’re open about it. Many aren’t when they attack men.

    Here’s the thing about “toxic masculinity”. Some people are toxic. Women and men tend to express that toxicity in different ways. Attacking an entire gender for the behaviour of the worst is stereotyping.

    More broadly it’s part of the modern notion that we are on teams and that the other team is bad.

    Friendly reminder that VOA, aka Voice of America, is a subsidiary of the US Agency for Global Media. It was established to convince people in the Soviet sphere that the US was better in every way. It continues that mission with America’s allies and enemies today.

    The process of opening up a country’s media space is integral to getting those State department messages in there.
