Not to be pedantic (๐):
You got your first sentence backwards.
Nzi does always mean authoritarian, but authoritarian doesn't always mean nzi.
I can't bring myself to write the word, I feel like if I spell it out, I'ma be put on a list and start getting YouTube ads for Tate and shit.
Instructions unclear.
Got dick stuck in the upside-down
Even now, you're trying to derail the conversation, which is about how women have to deal with this bullshit all the time online, and make it about a topic you care about.
You don't need to participate, if this isn't the subject that you want to talk about.
This isn't a universal complaint about the frustration of whataboutism.
This is a specific complaint about how any time women try to talk about women's issues in a forum that may contain men, those men engage in disingenuous whataboutism.
The men replying are almost never showing support, they're minimizing the issue, or they're trying to co-opt the thread.
It doesn't need to be a uniquely woman's issue for it to be a predominantly women's issue.
And it doesn't need to be a predominantly woman's issue for women to want to talk about it from a woman's perspective without men making it about them.
As someone with a loud car, I can confirm
The downvotes are insane when you're demonstrably right.
I feel like that's a pretty gross misrepresentation of the issue.
The people in the comic (and in the comments here) are often trying to minimize the issue on which she is speaking, or co-opt the conversation for their own issues (typically forcing her and the original issue to the sidelines). They're not adding context or having a discussion in good faith.
The comic is about how when people speak online online about women's issues, dudes keep trying to make it about dudes.
The comic itself is someone talking online about women's issues, and the comments are all men trying to make it about them.
It's remarkably similar.
The way this comment section unironically mirrors the comic perfectly.
So many dudes here unironically talking about how men have it hard too ๐คฆโโ๏ธ
One hell of a FUPA
