We're wrung out by society, every drip of productivity or money grabbed by a mad free for all struggle to... be comfortable and not have to struggle. Men and women in the USA are used up by industry and capital to the point of damaging their bodies. People turn to mood-altering substances to try to dull the mental, emotional, and physical pain. In parallel to the efforts to make society better for both men and women, we should be attacking the root causes of oppression. We can only fix that by attacking inequality, poverty, lack of access to mental/physical healthcare, and injustice. If you reduce the stressors, fewer people will turn to the toxic aspects of society that promise easy answers and simple actions. We do need to be listening to everyone, with no exceptions. However there's no guarantee that those ideas will be good or moral, and some segments or ideologies forget that. There's no right to have your ideas accepted or to never receive criticism.
