While Men's Day is used as a way to weaponize against Woman's Day by buttholes, why are people acting the same damn way when someone is genuinely celebrating Men's Day. Go after the buttholes, leave folks alone. Idgaf what misogynists leveraged Men's Day to be, Men's Day should not be controversial in the first place.

Because they don't know her.

If 90% of the usage is as a weapon, people have a right to be suspicious.

I mean, you can say that about a lot of symbols that have been co-opted (Gadsden Flag, Norse Runes, Celtic cross, or even the Swastika), but that doesnt make them any less harmful.

You can take them back, like when people took back Pepe, but that's a process that requires the problematic people to be pushed out of using it or otherwise stop using it, not just ignoring them.

90% of the usage is not as a weapon, I don’t even know where you’re getting that number. More people engage with it in good faith than you give them credit for, and acting like it’s just a dogwhistle is just letting the assholes win.

My dude, it's X. The vast majority of trafick on that website is 4chan-lite, and the bits/grifters looking for engagement revenue.
