There is no way to argue against a statement like “Women’s safety is more important than men’s feelings”

Yes there is. Show how the statement causes harm. If it is too ambiguous, make it concrete by interpreting it.

“Men’s feelings” and “women’s safety” don’t negate each other,

For the most part you are right (most feelings are not problematic), but there are situations where Men's feelings do affect women's safety.

For example. If a Man feels like he deserves sex even if a woman is not interested in having that sex. Another example is if the average man feels like they rightfully control or are better than women. Then that makes that society less safe for women.

But yeah, if a man feel sad because his favorite driver loss the race, that doesn't harm women. To me, these kinds of feelings were never the issue.

Why don’t you hold the actions of rapists and abusers against rapists and abusers, instead of innocent men who’ve done nothing but try to live their lives and respect the people around them?

I am confused about you got here. Is this post calling you a rapist? I have yet to judge you on anything. I am just trying to understand why this post is getting you so upset. If it turns out this post is upsetting to you because you are a rapist that thinks that women shouldn't have safety, then your reactions would make sense to me. As of now, I am still confused.
