[–] petrol_sniff_king@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 point 3 days ago (3 children) Why is it an obvious simplification? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] Brainsploosh@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago* (2 children) The post is complaining that the counter movement #notallmen is obviously right, and also that it's a trite counter argument to what is assumedly (and commonly) a claim of "all men X". They are arguing that "All men X" should obviously not be taken as literally "all men", but as a shorthand for "systemically enough men that the behaviour continues to exist so that almost 30% of men will do X at some point in their life". And that anyone saying "well, not all men" just isn't listening. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] petrol_sniff_king@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 3 days ago (1 child) Yeah, that's all true.
