i lurk in these spaces a lot and recently these accounts have been posting old court cases or body cam footage of stuff and putting a poll in the comments “who’s to blame: mother or _____” (insert whatever other possible answer could be, like the cops or the school) like theyre putting that thought into ppls heads indirectly
And my point is just that I don’t see how you can materially differentiate between the shit Andrew Tate and Ben Shapiro and whoever else were saying about women and mothers 5-10 years ago from the shit people say now. It’s always been the case that they’ve portrayed women as overly emotional, incapable of properly raising children without a “father figure,” alluded to single mothers being sluts, etc. I just don’t know why we’re acting like any of this shit is really that new. It’s a revolving
andrew tate and ben shapiro arent even the same kind of misogynist. i feel like ur just out of ur depths in this conversation like if we replace misogyny with the color red, we’re all talking about a new shade of red and ur sitting here telling us it all looks the same to u. thats a u problem lol
Actually what I’m saying is that we’re now talking about three different shades of red, among many many others, and you’re somehow just counting 2. I just don’t know why we’re drawing the line on like this one “specific kind of misogyny” as if that’s a total vibe shift when it’s always just been a million different heads of the same dragon
that literally makes no sense lol. this is what happened i said “hey guys theyre popularizing this new shade of red”….. and u said “uh, red’s always existed”…. and i said “this is a new shade theyre trying to popularize”….. and u said “idk how u tell the difference between this shade and Shapiro or Tate red”….. and i said ya those are red too but this is a different red
What you’re saying is more like “guys they just created a SECOND version of red that’s so different than the first red” and I’m saying we have a million shades of red and I don’t see what makes your shade of red so special that it deserves the distinction of “second red” when we’ve always had all these other reds
its novel in that theyre doing it collectively and commonly now in this way, to put this specific idea in peoples minds about mothers being to blame for childrens (not just minors btw) shortcoming. and like i said before, theyre doing it in a specific, also new way, of putting polls in comments
