Misandry is not an axis of oppression that exists outside of men's projection

Misandry is not real.

[edit]

Misandry doesn't exist as an axis of oppression. I will continue to reverse this agenda another wiki editor keeps pushing in trying to sanitize and codify "man-hating feminist", no matter how long it takes.

There is no place on earth where men are oppressed or are subject to violence based on the fact that they are men. There is no place on earth where women pose a real risk to men's lives.

False equivalence is intellectual dishonesty, and Wikipedia editors should be held to higher standards. Agenda Pushing (talk) 17:43, 10 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Agenda Pushing:
  1. You keep saying misandry didn't exist as a concept in 1967, but the term misandry dates back to at least 1871.
  2. Even if the term didn't exist back then, it's irrelevant. Wikipedia is written now, in the present.
  3. You keep saying that misandry doesn't exist as an axis of oppression today. No one other than you said anything about oppression. This is completely irrelevant.
  4. What the heck is as an axis of oppression, anyways? On Wikipedia, one should use clear and precise language.
It looks like you are not here to build an encyclopedia, but only to use Wikipedia as a soapbox for your fringe views. drt1245 (talk) 19:54, 10 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Do you genuinely not understand the term axis of oppression? Is that something you're admitting to?

Misogyny, racism, sexism, xenophobia, are not just terms to be used in intellectual exercises. They have concrete definitions and affect people's lives. How is that not an important concept to protect? Do you think Wikipedia doesn't need to educate its users about the material impact of different types of discrimination against the people who are being discriminated against?

Also, how are you going to claim authority over a feminist book when you don't understand basic terms used by feminists? "Axes of oppression" was a term coined by Audre Lorde when describing intersectionality, which was the examination of how different axes of oppression intersect to impact people's lives. In Lorde's original work she was specifically discussing the intersection of racism and sexism and how that intersection impacts Black women.

It looks like you are not here to defend intellectual honesty, but only to use Wikipedia as a soapbox to yell over women. Agenda Pushing (talk) 21:25, 10 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
