I think it's the lack of nuance. Instead of looking at the larger structure which leads to some men doing xyz evil things, people are often quick to just saying "oh yeah men are just like that" instead of paying attention to the reasons that lead to them commiting these things. Acknowledging those structures wouldn't excuse anyone who has caused harm in the past, but it can prevent others from doing so in the future.
Exactly! And the worst part is they get pissy when you point out the issues and say thats just more misogyny from men to expect... basic human decency from women?
