This kinda bullshit emboldens idiots of the opposite persuasion and I find that terrifying because I've been to /r/menrsrights and /r/theredpill.

I want to blame the internet but I think the average person really can't have a rational debate that involves anything other than a clear cut right and wrong. The internet just makes it easier for anyone to lock them self in an echochamber that reinforces their opinions and too many people want exactly that.

I'll blame the internet anyway. If I do that I can retain more optimism about human nature.
