A lot more sexist
I haven't seen this. Are there specific communities you are thinking of?
Me either but as a CIS Het dude, I may be unlikely to notice it. Can anyone tell me more? Serious question, want to be part of the solution here.
Honestly it's mostly the very casual, low effort stuff on meme communities that I was thinking of last night when I commented. The incel shit, I can deal with. But it's the casual objectification, as well as the diminishing of anything outside of a woman's appearance that I find exhausting.
Less out-and-out manosphere garbage than on Reddit, but man oh man have I seen some real incel adjacent shit pop up from time to time on asklemmy and nostupidquestions.
And they stay up too, because we’re too small to moderate effectively around the clock.
The manosphere shit actually doesn't bother me as much as the very casual, low effort stuff on meme communities that just make me feel completely valueless and like nothing will ever change.
Right? Just the other day some idiot posted a “my wife sucks” meme, and they were all very upset I pointed them to c/arethestraightsok.
Time to leave this shit behind.
