  • Discord is commonly abhorred by the FOSS community as it’s commonly referred to as “the place where information is lost forever” so why would Signal be any better?

    The reason why I bring this up is because you (an hour old account) are posting this on a fediverse forum where knowledge is more readily available for the public to share and learn from.

    So no offence but I personally find it difficult to see as to why anyone should trust this on first glance.

    If the reader feels attacked

    Non-violent criticism can still be done by addressing the point/statement rather than attacking the person. I don’t understand how gender is involved with fragile egos as it can be a universal problem.

    As a feminist I have to say media such as this comic hurts the movement as it makes it harder for us to garner support from people of all backgrounds. Not all women sterotype men, and not all men sterotype women. The best of both is possible, but like a scientist you have to be willing to find the truth.

    I find this similiar to how some:

    • anti-oil activists cause harm onto all people (such as causing traffic problems by sitting on roads) rather than protesting against oil companies directly.
    • schools create penalties for the entire class instead of singling out and isolating the bully.

    I’m not a fan of this kind of media as it’s still about kicking others down rather than raising people up which is really unfortunate as we’ve already got plenty of corporations already doing this to the majority of people

    If the essence of this comic is about critisizing the fragility of ego in men, then wouldn’t a better solution be to encourage men’s ability to self-reflect and learn empathetic communication (Non-Violent-Communication)?

    Personally I’m tired of these firestarter situations that pits people against each other as it’s all so needlessly tragic. As someone with conservative family members this is just all too familiar unfortunately and I hate it as it’s not useful or enjoyable for anyone.

    Like does the state of humanity’s current shitty position really change by fighting each other? Personally I don’t think so. Unless we’re in a situation where civil disobedience is required to fight opression from the top, I see these situations as unhelpful and toxic for both feminists and men.
