No one is asking them to see themselves as monsters? You're creating a problem where there isn't one.

What is a child supposed to pull from the bear vs man type of discussions?

[-] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 1 month ago

to be better than a bear probably?

[-] elidoz@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 month ago

children already know to be better than bears, what this argument provides for them is a window into what other people assume based only on gender

[-] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 month ago

then why are so many men worse than bears

this is a trick quesion, they're not

when evauluating risk you have to take into account the general population, and the general population of bears is not exactly friendly

[-] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com -2 points 1 month ago

as is the general population of men, I think you guys missed the point of that whole discussion

[-] drunkpostdisaster@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I don't think you understand bigotry the way you pretend. I remember what my dad was like before he started watching fox and the way it rotted his brain and how it turned him from a reasonable well spoken human to a republican bigot. I see that in a lot of liberal discourse, but people think they are special and will never fall for the same shit that turned the party of Lincoln to the party of trump.

so your dad was brainwashed by right wing propaganda, what exactly are you trying to tell me with that?

[-] drunkpostdisaster@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

The point is no one is immune to that. Its not exclusively a right wing thing.

[-] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 month ago

so that makes it ok to be a bigot? it's not their fault?

no I'm asking, what point are you trying to prove? how is it relevant to the discussion?

[-] drunkpostdisaster@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

That anyone is vulnerable to that kind of brainwashing

[-] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 month ago

ok but that irrelevant to what has been said before
