Posted October 19, 2022 @Optimized Life On 2022-10-18 at 0:12 AM, Optimized Life said: Getting raped is less severe of a crime than the crime of falsely (Intentionally) accusing someone of rape Getting raped is a horrible traumatizing experience, but nothing is worse than spending life in jail for something you didn't commit, that is the highest tragedy. They are both extremely bad & I'm not saying that the latter is worse to trivialize rape, I'm saying that the false penalty is so bad that's even worse than rape, yet in the media & people's minds we don't tend to even think about this. We think so simplistically & archetypally of "the evil rapist pedo murderer when will we have a society without these people!!" Yet we don't also get horrified in shivers at the narcistic woman who falsely accuses a guy of this & that & he goes to jail for it, she should be classed in the same category as the murderer and rapist, and because she's subtle & more likely to get away with it, she's more dangerous, she's like the female savvy version of the serial killer, she steals mens lives away through lies & deceptions instead of direct violence, but it's all ultimately the same thing. ... There's men like this too and they're equally evil however it is distinctly more dangerous for the female versions of this because she can leverage her beauty & illusory image of fragility to disarm & manipulate & to play up the victim narrative; the narcissistic woman is so dangerous she is arguably more frightening than a serial killer (Ok bit too dramatic there, but still pretty bad). There needs to be more of a focus & commitment to the innocent until proven guilty too many men are abused by the system for this bias, especially black young men who lack social power & resources & more easily stereotyped by judges. Most men aren't rapists but a lot more people are sociopathic narcissists, who love to defame others for their own gain or petty satisfaction, there should be severe crime punishment for women & people who falsely accuse of rape, the punishment should be as strong as the rape penalty. I be t you this thread will be deleted or locked ... but silly af it does because I'm making some genuinely insightful points here, free speech & authenticity is important. Or the thread would be locked or deleted on the grounds of your hate farming and trolling and triggering heated debates and arguing and encouraging close minded and dogmatic discourse. Nothing malicious or conspiratorial about that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

None of you have the balls to give them a lecture about 'attitude'. Cuz they're so 'oppressed'. And that would be 'misogynistic'. All of this bullshit-talk is reserved for men in our society. Shame on the people enabling it. Does it hurt your little feels when feminists are rude to you? 🥺 Is that what this is really all about? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 19, 2022 @Optimized Life To be a bit fairer to you and demonstrate to others how you've conflated the experience of rape trauma to the experience of false accusations and jail time, let's look at this from a different context and situation. The context is fitness, and the issue is which fitness programs or which ways to exercise. What you did, is you took the power lifter/strongman's fitness program, were they prioritize lifting heavy to very heavy weights, with certain types and ranges of exercises, and you took the bodybuilder/marine/navy training program for endurance, and conflated the intensity of the power lifter/strongman fitness program and falsely equate that intensity to that of the marine's and the bodybuilder's, it's no big deal that experiencing high intensity can be highly traumatic and stressful, look at the marine's and bodybuilders! The D.O.M.S (damage onset muscle soreness) and higher metabolic stress is far more concerning. The main issue is you had to downplay the negative effects of the stresses of the strongman/power lifter, and by doing so, you've written off the experiences of the power lifter and strongman and over emphasized the troubles of the bodybuilders and marines. Yes, in context to fitness, every type of fitness program is designed to increase some level of stress, in order for your body to respond and adapt to those stress levels, but that doesn't mean every fitness program is equally stressful and equally bad.

Since you found this community, I assume there must be some small piece of you that cares for the truth. Even if that small piece is buried so deep that you’re disconnected from it most of the time. My suggestion would be to find and listen to whatever that is because I can guarantee with absolute certainty that whatever it’s trying to show you is not what you currently believe.

Posted October 19, 2022 @Ulax 4 hours ago, Ulax said: @mr_engineer To some yes, to some no. I think it would be pointless me saying it to some feminist demographics. I'm not actually intending to tell you to stop complaining. Its more that it seems to me you are trying to persuade people to your viewpoint and it doesn't seem like your strategy is v effective to me. To my mind, complaining isn't an effective way of persuading people to your point of view. So, what would you say to @mr_engineer to help him improve on his persuasion tactics? What are some examples that would replace what you think is him 'complaining'? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
