This is not offensive so much as being completely unreasonable to make a point of how unfair the world is perceived to be. And that's just boring and annoying because it is overused and can be dismissive.

I also don't support executing those narrow e scooter 🛴 thingamajig drivers even though they are a danger to themselves and bikes. Even though it would solve problems.

I don't think anyone thinks men should actually have a curfew. We think that men should stop assaulting women on the street.

Well, that is not clear in the post.

[–] Gladaed@feddit.org 4 points 3 weeks ago

Pretty clear to me.

I think "place a curfew on 50% of humanity" is a pretty clear "this is not a real thing"

Just to be overly clear: I didn't think that! I just am bored of overly extreme phrasing that inflict substantial harm on others.

Mm, I hear you. There's catharsis in it, I think. And its not really great to tone police a marginalised group (not saying that's what you're doing)

I do, but only because it would be funny.
