Look, I really *do* get it. I’ve been where a lot these fucks are at. I spent most of my time in college as a meritocracy-spouting, anti-“sjw” libertarian. I traveled in MRA circles for awhile, thought Milo was so clever, ate it all up.
But I was WRONG. It was all bullshit. I get how weirdly seductive the straw man arguments can be. How easy it is to get sucked into cherry picked logic and inherited rage and to intentionally take intent out of context, hunt for something to be angry about, to attack, under the guise of “calm” smug superiority
