MRA is kind of the inverse i think because it typically is just about mens rights not egalitarianism. At least in my experience with it online.
I can accept im wrong if put to the test but i dont think im wrong enough that ill wait for a convincing argument before i burden myself with slogging through that much slop to find if theres good stuff underneath
Its making it sound like patriarchy isnt a nebulous web of consequences.
If its giving people the idea that the patriarchy is something akin to a politcal party or movement then we should probably stop unintentionally giving people the wrong target to hit.
Its a thing of a billion selfish decisions and consequences going back thousands of years.
You cant just name it and scare it away, you have to understand how it still exists and set the path for self correction when decisions are made that affect and effect people broadly.
It cant be fixed by making gender based corrective rules or legislation, its by adopting good practices when making policies for people you wont ever see or hear from because they arent born yet. Hilariously to me, im kind of saying wont we just think about the children.
Like climate change and pollution its not the world today we can fix, its fixing today so the world can be fixed later
And thats why its so hard, everyone is arguing about what is first thing we should already be doing but arent
We need to just start making choices now whenever we find the opportunity, that we wont have to revisit tomorrow.
And that means finding common ground so we can start agreeing on somethings and making some decisions like that today.
And im not smart enough acheive that, and it looks like around the world we are all having a hard time finding choices that arent getting unmade by the next people who get to make decisions
If i have a very plain boring hamburger. Bun cheese patty bun, are the cheese and patty in the middle? Middle doesnt always mean center, center doesnt always mean exactly in the center between 2 points either because thats why the term dead center exists

Would you mind trying to explain (ELI5 style) what you did before and why you are excited for this new method for those of us who dont understand code?
So like my english teacher taught me. Keep It Stupid Simple(though he would say keep it simple stupid to some people in class i am just realizing now 20+ years later)
