read what I wrote, Adolf.
uhhhh did you even bother looking at my profile before you just Nazijacketed a Jewish person or
@YKantRachelRead @jonesmurphy@mastodon.social @QasimRashid I suspect he said that because, not despite, checking your bio. I saw that and thought "fuck this guy, blocked"

@QasimRashid I'm glad you posted this and I'm also pissed that women have been saying this all along and no one listens to us
Most women learn the hard truth early on, that men can't be trusted not entirely. If you're not a man or perceived as a man, you're in danger. Even men in your family are not safe
Anyone reading this that replies with a variation of 'not all men' will be blocked with no reply. Instead of whining maybe go do something useful like tell your man buddies to stop harming women -
@YKantRachelRead @QasimRashid yeah, it's completely off topic. Sorry you had to deal with that fool

@QasimRashid
Another example of Qasim's pathetic engagement farming. The capitalist system, which he will never address, is inherently sexist and the hierarchy requires someone to be picked on who's considered lower on the pecking order. Women and minorities have conveniently always been in this catagory.
The USSR-Communist Russia-which everyone on mastodon vilifies with ignorant Russophobia, always considered women as equals and important. That's why the US goal has been to destroy Russia. -

@QasimRashid Ok, I need to know what to with this information.
I am a male and have never hurt a woman.
Do you want me to self quarantine for the rest of my life in order to make women feel safe?@johnrohde @QasimRashid
Same things you do any time you learn about human horribleness:
• sit with it for a while, and take time to grieve both the victims and your own lost innocence as needed
• consult family and close friends about it, to see if/how you can improve your own behaviors
• remain aware of it, and keep it in mind when interacting with others
• leverage your own privileges to intervene if/when you see it happening in the real world -

@QasimRashid The picture is so dire.
I don’t know what to do, except raising my sons to respect everyone equally, and raising my daughters to be comfortable with enforcing their limits.

@QasimRashid Well Some Men Anyway
@billjryan @QasimRashid all men benefit from male supremacy, and one of male supremacy's main enforcement arms is violence against women. so, yes, all men.

@QasimRashid The best thing a woman can do if she wants to live a long and healthy life is to stay single. We can't choose to have male relatives or not, but we *can* choose to have a partner - or not.

@steff seriously, that's like, not even historically accurate. women in the USSR were nominally equal to men under the law, but in practice they were expected to work full-time jobs in addition to the uncompensated "women's work" of maintaining a household and raising children.
-
@YKantRachelRead @QasimRashid Sorry What you Suffered, But You Only Met The Wrong Men
@billjryan @QasimRashid every man I meet who responds to me like you just did reinforces the fact that, no, I haven't met The Wrong Men, I've just met Men

@YKantRachelRead@treehouse.systems Yeah… the vast majority of Marxists and Leftists don’t consider domestic labor to be of near value with that performed by the glorious industrial proletariat.

@steff @YKantRachelRead also the USSR very much believed in hierarchy. So much that they murdered Anarchists for not believing in hierarchy!!! -

@QasimRashid Men aren't safe around men either. You know that, right?
Also, men are more likely to die preventable violent deaths, be seriously injured by random violence, and die from preventable diseases.
Statistically men are in more danger than women, every day, all the time, from everything and you only need to look into an OAP home to see who is outliving whom.
In summary, feeling safe and being safe are not the same thing. Safety is not and can not be guaranteed for anyone, ever.
