    Meh, easier to get mad at you and refuse to change because they can’t possibly be making a mistake

    Exactly the same as when they say “all men are dangerous” instead of “all unknown men have the potential to be dangerous”

      They are already refusing to change though. “I hate all men” clearly it’s really winning them over, and it just makes it easier to discredit us as misandrists.

      Everything is becoming so polarized that we are losing nuance. If we ever want to actually change things for the better, we have to stop reaching for the easy slogans and bring the nuance back.
