“Groupthink and echo chambers mean some people will reward you for being the person who comforts them in their prejudice.”

Thank you.

I knew that some would opine that the title of your piece, let alone its content, is enabling men to be at the ‘top of the food chain’. They unfortunately cannot let go of a limiting prejudiced stereotype which gives them comfort in knowing the enemy, in this case all men, and thereby empower victimhood.

And it is a victimhood with no accountability it would seem.

But it also posits an inane absurdity: men can’t be victims — they can’t feel pain. Oh no, men can’t be depressed enough to kill themselves at four times the rate as women.

No, according to many in the social media world, the market in victimhood has been cornered by women, and the likes of the ‘woke’ generation.

Therefore, any appeal to humanism is anathema to those who only wish to blame men for the ills of the world.

Your piece is the anecdote to the mindless separation of men from women. Pick up a shovel indeed and bury the divisiveness.

Otherwise, women will have to fight against the sheer and utter nonsensical and ignorant misogynistic degradation in Alabama’s recent abortion law…alone.

Why?

Because some women think they won’t need ‘men’ to help fight this kind of regressive legislation.
