I disavow the ignorance displayed in the statement that “Feminists always think women are better than men.” But felt important to share how well received such a message is received on this site.

i agree with literally everything you said here except that you put words into the other commenters mouth over eight words lol.

No, I really didn't, I made a mildly snarky remark pointing out the direct implication of their bullshit statement (E: and which, if you agree with everything I've said, I'm genuinely confused why you're getting defensive of), and I stand by it.

I'm sick and tired of people responding to problems we have because of very specific systems and a very small group of people with a condemnation of humanity as a whole (E: consciously or unconsciously, but very directly, helping our oppressors by shifting blame away from them), and I'm not going to be made out to be "abrasive" for calling it out for exactly what it is, nor the tone in which I do it in (which, lets be honest, was seriously fucking mild), policed.

If they don't like the implications of their statement, perhaps they should reconsider why they made it, and not make it again in the future if they don't want to be seen to be making those implications again. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I think you're dead on. I have nothing else to add, but it's refreshing to see a non-doomer take.

I appreciate that, thanks.
