Men's Liberation
This community is first and foremost a feminist community for men and masc people, but it is also a place to talk about men’s issues with a particular focus on intersectionality.
Rules
Everybody is welcome, but this is primarily a space for men and masc people
Non-masculine perspectives are incredibly important in making sure that the lived experiences of others are present in discussions on masculinity, but please remember that this is a space to discuss issues pertaining to men and masc individuals. Be kind, open-minded, and take care that you aren't talking over men expressing their own lived experiences.
Be productive
Be proactive in forming a productive discussion. Constructive criticism of our community is fine, but if you mainly criticize feminism or other people's efforts to solve gender issues, your post/comment will be removed.
Keep the following guidelines in mind when posting:
- Build upon the OP
- Discuss concepts rather than semantics
- No low effort comments
- No personal attacks
Assume good faith
Do not call other submitters' personal experiences into question.
No bigotry
Slurs, hate speech, and negative stereotyping towards marginalized groups will not be tolerated.
No brigading
Do not participate if you have been linked to this discussion from elsewhere. Similarly, links to elsewhere on the threadiverse must promote constructive discussion of men’s issues.

This is... a interesting statement
The Democrats had a Joe Rogan, his name was JOE ROGAN..... Joe Rogan ENDORSED Bernie Sanders for president.
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-51241462
And then, (like the author in this article continued to do), they vilified all men, and specifically white men.
And they wonder why they can't attract men?
Joe is a good example that even simple people are complex and don't really fit into simple left right schema.
Bernie is a Socialist Democrat, not a DNC Democrat.
Not doing the show was clearly a mistake at this point. Branding him as extreme right doesn't seem to be working either.
"Doesn't seem to be qorking?"
It's a statement of fact. Rogan's politics are clearly far right. This isn't even debatable unless you've fallen for the lie that his views somehow represent the "middle" because he at times gives token criticism of some Republicans, too.
Only because Bernie was pushed on useful idiots as a useful vote-splitter that benefitted Trump
