>>743653It is true that there's a vested interest in tech companies to engage in toxic discourse. Though even here on leftypol we keep having this kind of discussion with little progress made, although it isn't zero progress I would say. Unfortunately we still have plenty of foolish people here too, and we all bring here our biases. None of us are immune to propaganda. I've actually never looked at fedi though I've seen it mentioned here and there, I've long given up on finding nice places to chat online because they all seem to be poisoned now.
>Yeah even early on in the gamergate stuff I saw incelism as the logical result of prior waves of feminism not getting garbage collected where men do the same shit. Wemen basically reinforced gender chauvanism and machismo by adopting it themselves but even cruder, and then that synced up both sides and now incelism exists as a sort of weird gender neutral machismo culture.It's really bizarre how this happened. I think women have every right to be angry, but often our anger quickly crosses the line from justified to overreaction, and then into oppression. It is funny to see the dialectic in action, and in this case it just created a universal repulsive culture. I think we're all tired of it, but we don't know quite how to detach just yet. It's obvious that nobody is really happy with the state of things.
