        Edit: My comment below was frustrated and more aggressive than it should have been:

        People like you are a discredit to any real men’s rights activists, and are a drain on human rights movements.

          All because I want the law to be gender neutral? Wow.

          Heaven forbid anyone care about real world injustices that rape victims have suffered because the law doesn’t recognise them.

          I think you should take a good hard look at yourself and reflect on your statement, to be honest.

      You’re saying that the other poster was not invoking any of those legitimate reasons. And you base that on… what exactly? His five other comments on Lemmy?

      Jumping straight to the most uncharitable interpretation of someone’s intent is a bad habit.

        A guess based on experience with similar toned poster’s across social media. Don’t pretend a majority of dudes talking like that aren’t just out for some sort of women-hating catharsis. Weeding them out isn’t my job, it’s the poster’s to be aware of the reality of online human rights discussion before all-lives’ing their point of view. However annoyed my tone was their initial post was also in bad faith.
