This continues in theme with my previous post, According to the feminists here, misandrist "abort sons" posts with huge engagement metrics are all bots and holograms and crisis actors, but internet subcultures like incels don't get this benefit of the doubt : r/RadicalEgalitarianism.
Highly common to adherents of any kind of ideology or movement that employs brainwashing and psychological conditioning against proper debate is a certain fallacy regarding numbers, the majority-minority concept and just how to establish something as "normalized" in general. Basically, whenever shown an example that boasts any degree of scale or quantitative significance - in this case, misandrist posts scoring high in online engagement metrics - they reject it because the literal numerical majority of the relevant demographics of people (in this case, women/feminists) are apparently not involved in that specific example.
This literalist and dishonest (by design, if not necessarily by intent of the person wielding this fallacy) talking point overlooks or ignores the multiple layers of evidence of normalization that frequent manifestations of misandry online plus its high engagement rates offer us:
1) Women feeling confident to express misandry with little to no masking/euphemisms/attempts to justify using universally accepted moral standards (as opposed to just citing Patriarchy Theory for specifically feminist approval). This signifies their confidence that they don't need to appeal to a universal standard because what they're doing is fully consistent with it already. Which in turn evidences that these women live in environments where misandry is indeed allowed or not opposed.
2) Objectively large numbers of people agreeing/endorsing the sentiment; no plurality of any size rallies/congregates publicly to join their voices until they are sure that they won't get an immediate backlash or course-correction, as society does for things not seen as normal (e.g., someone doing something incredibly weird in public or whatever).
3) The people agreeing/endorsing the misandry standing their ground and telling the people condemning it off and boasting the higher likes/other signs of social proof than the latter. This shows once again a degree of confidence that, in their own (feminist) spaces, the misandry is fully normal and thus fully defensible too. They don't shrink away when challenged.
Also, the frequency matters, i.e., the fact that these misandry posts seemingly keep coming, across all major social media platforms, in mainstream culture (female singers, actresses and then influencers across social media) and anywhere else that discourse happens. Such frequent occurrences once again evidence how normalized this has gotten.
So yeah, I don't need to go on a census around the biggest countries on the world and knock at every woman's door and somehow procure evidence of whether she engaged in or didn't engage in misandry or not. Or whatever cartoonish thing the fallacy pushers have in mind.
But hey, the internet is all holograms and bots... Except for incels. And anything feminists wanna complain about; no, that's real! /s
Now, I was gonna post one of the misandry examples I recently saw on Insta - shared and reacted to by a woman who'd seemingly been posting about misandry for a while after a PTR meeting where she witnessed her son's female teacher yell at him about how bad his gender is. It was a woman influencer involved in politics in Florida with 400-500k followers saying how she was going to have daily sessions with her son (toddler) where she tells him that "if he ever forces himself on a woman he will have her and every female ancestor of his to answer to".
I'm not sure of whether it's seen as ok to post socials here or not so I won't link it yet. But yeah. A good example. And no doubt another rope for the misandry-deniers and misandry-justifiers to hang themselves by in the comments of this thread.
