This might be the most directly political XKCD I've seen. Go Randal!

Dumbasses

So your excuse is that some other people of the opposite gender are equally as shitty as you're planning to be?

Nvm I will change my mind if Yoda is the one arguing against me

Why would you believe a position that involves hating an entire gender is at all justified

Would you like to elaborate or just lob an insult and leave

They didnt even need to googlr it, their own link specifies "criminal" defendants

This is a dangerously strong and broad sentiment to present as a hard rule. This is how propaganda is created.

Although in the example you gave those four did literally give the bill exactly enough votes to pass, so... uhoh

So you were only pretending to call them racist?

It's two different people

I know this is a joke, but for informational purposes, it's the opposite of what this guy said

Those examples are used because there is plenty of well-known racism and religion...ism (forgot the word) discussion along those lines. It's like asking why people use squares and circles as their go-to example shapes, it's part of the cultural consciousness. They're using those examples because they know people consider them to be racist, and using that to imply that "men are rapists" is similarly sexist. It's easy to twist this behavior into something problematic, but it's really not.

If you can't win an argument without insinuating your opponent is a rapist maybe you should stop to think about why that is.

I feel like almost every time I've seen "not all men" in the wild, it's in response to someone actually making generalized statements about men, not just someone stating that they must be cautious.

Bad take, you're dismissing society's effect on the psyche of many men by saying these things

Hating and fearing are not the same

"Women made me evil"

This comment section is amazing. Good job all

Thanks. That's bad to be clear, but 4 out of 213 doesn't seem worthy of all the displeasure you've stated.
