    This sounds like a misrepresentation of left wing politics.

    It sounds more like how the right defines the left which brings us to the real issue.

    Outrage narratives have grown increasingly popular with social media and the right spends endless time blaring sirens on representing the left a certain way.

    The left has in response, done little, to influence the narrative.

    I personally have not heard the left as a whole admonishing individual men simply for being men.

    I think an honest assessment of society, historically and now, should lead to the conclusion that we live in a male centric society that is gradually becoming less male centric. This is a good thing if you believe in fairness and egalitarianism (ie. not fascism).

    It was a little more than 50 years ago that women could not hold credit and were expected to be subservient to their husbands or else be institutionalized for “mental illness”.

    I think many women see this backlash / desire to go back from conservative men as a skill issue so I’m not suprised they’re looking elsewhere.
