not blaming anyone, but even leftist men have some questionable takes about dating, women’s rights, etc. and it really makes you realize how our world is just misogynistic at default & it takes a lot of unlearning to NOT fall into the ”gender war” traps
I’ve talked with a lot of leftist men and some of them who are really into it are very strange. I remember reading a Twitter post by a girl who joined the DSA. 2 different men tried to get 1 on 1s with her as soon as she met them

I don’t even remember what the clip was but I remember there was a big Twitter post about this a few years ago because hasan had said something kinda misogynistic and someone said something like “even the leftist men hate us”

yeah, a lot of the leftist streamers like Hasan, Destiny, Vaush especially, have problematic takes or histories with women

But there’s also a lot of leftists who are respectful. Given, I am a man. I tend to trust what women say when it comes to this stuff

my hot take, as a leftist woman, is that liberal men make the best boyfriends (this is a silly generalization & not serious) but on a more serious note, i know what you’re talking about. some leftist men’s approach to dating or having sex with women feels off.

i don’t know if i could actually explain what i’m talking about with that though so i would never make a main post about it or promote that narrative basically just off vibes lmfao

Back in high school (rural Missouri, very red area) there were very few leftists, mainly just me and one other guy, and we only ever really talked about politics, but eventually he ended up dating one of my close friends. They lasted a month. The stories I heard were wild.

You know in Interstellar how the fifth dimension is love? And believing in metaphysics is kind of innately absurd if we potentially live in a universe solely consisting of natural phenomenon. What is love? Baby don’t hurt me?
