Lots of sensitive susans in the comments. If you don't like it block it and move on. There's too many people on lemmy that want to dictate what everyone can and can't see rather than moderating what they themselves see.
Lemmy is a pretty bad echo chamber at the moment. Here it seems like there’s only ever one right opinion.
Apparently that's the misogynistic one, based on a whole series of posts on the front page at the moment and the hundreds of gross comments that have followed.
I don't get what's up with people nowadays throwing up the adjective "misogynistic" everywhere, when 80% of the time they're really not seeing something misogynistic, but rather some ideologically conservative crap.
conservative ideology is misogynistic
Sexism is not misogyny.
misogyny, as defined by webster, is "hatred of, aversion to, or prejudice against women." we use the term to make it clear that this contempt and prejudice is against women specifically.
conservative ideology seeks to actively harm women who dare be anything more than servants to men. to have contempt for a group of people unless they're effectively enslaved is to have contempt for that group in general.
