@djsumdog This person talks non-stop about "femicide", the belief that woman are purposefully being hunted and killed just for being women. Maybe, that's the case in some third-world shitholes, but she is making it look like that woman have to be constantly on guard. It's literally the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard.

I think this gets into the "victim as virtue" idea. I remember Helen Dale (Australian lawyer/author) talking about how Roman society didn't have a concept for virtue in victimization. Works like the Book of Job didn't really resonate in Roman society. Dales makes the argument Romans didn't believe in refinement through trial, although I question that stance since they did have The Odyssey and other popular works/theater that fit the standard heroes journey.

If Christianity was the moving force that pushed the idea of virtuous persecutions (e.g. "Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven."), it would make sense that people would eventually seek out persecution as a means of increasing their virtue.

@xianc78 @djsumdog is this a fedicock post? yawns how boring 💤

@Zergling_man @djsumdog Colleges have been pushing feminism for decades. It wouldn't surprise me if even back then there were a few men who couldn't get a girlfriend because all the women they talked to swallowed the propaganda.
