Ladies, the next time a manosphere loser tries to pull some NAMALT shit say this instead.
"My bad. I forgot about the cowards and the passively complicit"
"'Ur not one of those "good" men, though. Otherwise you wouldn't be acting in the "bad" one's benefit by taking it upon yourself to police the women who react viscerally to their violence by making sure their anger "stays in line with what's proper'
'Yeah but it's not cause ya'll respect women. It's cause ur mostly too scared or too dumb to do that shit urself and get away with it which is why you gotta settle for living vicariously through the few who actually have the balls to actually act on their violent urges and the brains to avoid getting caught . And if this wasn't the case, u guys wouldn't be holing up in the comments of every social media post about a femicide victim, feverishly churning out fanfiction about what she must have done to deserve it"
Say nothing. They don't deserve the arguments or clapbacks and all it will do is rope you in. They're laughing at us when they are able to get us to respond; that's literally their #1 goal.
It’s not all men who set that woman on fire in newyork but it’s all men who just recorded it for views and did nothing. It’s not all men who raped that girl in the subway but all men ignored it. It’s not all men who dragged the girl in his car to rape her, but it’s all men who just stood there and did nothing ( It was the wife who reported him after seeing the images on the news, and the men were still acting like she only filed for divorce to get his money )
Therefore it’s all men.
It’s all men, if men can say all women are the same then I can say it too. It’s all men.
Just say YES ALL MEN and sit back for the fun.
"Not all men" is just their attempt to stop us from noticing patterns in male behavior. It's designed to keep us from observing, judging, understanding, and being smart. It's supposed to trick us into believing that objectively analyzing the reality we live in, and responding in a rational and healthy way, is morally and logically wrong like prejudice and oppression. They want us to be afraid to see what they really are or else we are bad people. They want us to be afraid to think. They want us to believe that using our own eyes and brains is similar to being a bigot.
Don't try to argue against it in good faith because they are not arguing in good faith. Don't use logic or explain. Don't try to convince him of the reality he already knows and gets power from. Like everything else, they know, but don't care.
Instead, say something you know will confuse or upset him. Hurt his feelings, insult him, say something random and upsetting. Call him a sensitive whiney bitch who can't take a joke. Mock his voice or clothes. Pretend he said something else and passionately argue against that. Maybe keep saying "huh? What?" like you can't hear him. Maybe say you didn't realize he was a man. Maybe just start laughing while staring at his potbelly. Gaslight him. Fuck with his head.
You could also lean into it as harsh as possible. Like, say all men should go into concentration camps and get forcibly castrated. Say you love to bake and eat little boys.
Or even just completely ignore him. Yawn if you can. He is nothing and you don't care what gibberish comes out of his mouth. The grunts and snorts of a wild hog rooting in around in shit contain more wisdom and value than the words out of the mouth of a man who says "Not all men."
They won't bother you again if they leave the conversation feeling small instead of feeling power over you by getting you upset and forcing you to defend your own humanity. It's not an argument. It's a power play.
Besides, the statement itself remains unproven. To prove "Not all men" true, logically we need only one counter example. Where's he at? I certainly haven't met him.
It's NOT all men...but it's AT LEAST half of them and we don't know which ones!! We're also not taught about ANY red flags during our formative years, and we're taught that being nice is more important than being safe.
Love the "cowards and the complicit" comment! Chef's kiss!
"Then why is it ALL women have a story about being victimized by men?"
You could also pull out a box of chocolates and say "And not ALL of these chocolates are poisoned."
