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.

Everyone coming up with reasons to blame the left for failing when the right, the rich and Russia teamed up in a country with unlimited anonymous election spending and no left wing parties.
It would be strange to blame the right for the failure of the left to succeed - it's kind of their goal.
It grinds my gears too. These people love to complain about identity politics but then indulge in moral superiority to liberals. I don't know why they don't see it as hypocrisy.
This is a failing of the left that is talked in the article though. Men were abandoned by the left, and the far right filled the void.
Now indeed the liberals tend to blame all the problems in the world on the left, but this is not the matter in this article, although it does talk about elections.
