Claim: Feminism is excusing and downplaying perpetrated violence
see https://sci-hub.se/10.1016/j.avb.2011.04.006
Claim: The science on this matter is reasonably clear
you just said it'd been denied for 4-5 decades
Claim: and yet female perpetrated violence is downplayed and male domestic violence is overplayed
This could easily be argued to be part of patriarchial society, but there's still no source despite such large claims
Claims: These gender gaps exist 30:00
I agree. I think I've heard about the existence of almost all of these. But he's also just saying things without sourcing anything.
So consider your evidenceless claim dismissed.
Claim: No feminist is advocating for anything to be done about these gaps
Just..
Claim: Feminism is neither liberal, because it treats women as children
didnt even elaborate how this time, let alone name real examples
Claim: Undermine due process
doesnt elaborate how
Claim: Suppress freedom of speech because they say that they are being sexistly oppressed and use that to shut down free speech
I don't think they challenge the 1st amendment, but while I have you, Paradox of Tolerance
Claim: expanding state power
feminism is when you want the state to do its job I guess
Claim: Sex work is considered a form of oppression under patriarchy
There is a very loud SWERF group in feminism but I think most feminists already have come around to see that it's best for it to be legalized and protected
Claim: Mobbing/Vigilante Methods/Cancelling is illiberal Paradox of Tolerance, and while there are obviously instances where I disagree with mob-rule type decisions, people generally rile up to hold others accountable - I don't agree with
retributive justice and hope society in general comes around, but that is not a feminism issue.
Claim: Authoritarian Control & Obedience
cant name a single policy that furthers this narrative
Claim: Feminism is not leftwing because Marxist-connected feminism is on the decline
I have no fucking idea whether or this is the case, outside of intersectional feminist spaces almost all critique Capitalism as part of what needs something done with
Claim: There's actually a lot more women doing super great, it's just that men are the top 0.01% while there are way more women below them [in like the top 10% i guess?] and Theresa May was a conservative prime minister
I don't see how the first part would make feminism not left wing, but yeah there can be conservatives that think they're feminist despite ignoring big feminist ideas I guess
