Shouldn't it be up to the author to prove his claims rather than someone else to disprove them? I see no evidence provided for his stereotypes of women, for example. Something this unsubstantiated doesn't need debunking. It's simply one man's unsubstantiated opinion, nothing more or less.

- jackvalentine 9y ago> Shouldn't it be up to the author to prove his claims rather than someone else to disprove them? Look, yes. It should be. But the author has made his best 10 page effort to do so and now I'm looking for someone who has the necessary background to critically question his claims. That the manifesto has taken on a life of its own and spread as far as it has is only more reason for it to be succinctly and academically critiqued.
