That makes sense. I think of shell scripts as "things programmers execute", but that's obviously not always the case.

Third-wave feminists' deliberate use of the word "patriarchy" to describe modern western culture is itself a class-conflict power grab. But to directly address your point, the OP's argument isn't a strawman. I cou

Overall, I don't disagree with much of what you said. > ALL of your comments are about men's rights. Yes, most of my comments are about gender issues. And interestingly, despite the vast majority of comments in any given thre

We must protect the fairer sex at all costs. This use of "privilege" as a targeted weapon to silence specific demographics has to stop. Women in the western world have always been among the safest, most privileged people on Eart

It's probably safe to assume that you're parodying the nakedly Orwellian nature of third-wave feminists, but I'm going to respond just in case this is a serious post. This use of "privilege" as a targeted weapon to

What's the purpose of this comment? I obviously don't think all feminists walk around saying that. I was simply explaining why that particular shaming tactic was included in the list above.

I've seen feminists publicly accuse men of being closeted gays to explain "an otherwise inexplicable hatred of women".

Modern western feminism certainly has widely accepted dogma, but there are exist bitter battles between competing factions. That being said, the largest factions don't exactly cover all sides of an issue, to put it mildly, so the exi

Nice. Feminist bullies use the same tactics and insults that kids use in middle school. What's so wrong with asking someone in an elevator ? I'm all ears. Is it because you think women will cower in terror because they're an enclosed box w
