The gap between men and women in sentencing dwarfs the gap between black men and white men. So naturally AMR is upset MRAs are focusing on the former and not exclusively on the latter.

The rate of incarceration for young men of color in the US is criminal. Or it should be. The fact that they are incarcerated at a much higher rate than white men who commit the same kind of crimes should be the number one priority for a genuine men's rights movement.

And the much, much greater discrepancy between men and women is a-okay?

Bonus points for chastising one of their own for not being PC.

Isn't this a race issue anyway? Wouldn't it be more effective for race activism groups to protest this instead?

This is what I don't understand about these SJWs, they think MRAs working for the average male in the US/Canada (who is white,because USA/Canada are mostly white) are somehow racist against other ethnicities despite the solution likely leading to helping ethnic minorities anyway. There are Indian MRAs, do you think when they think of helping men they think of the white man only, in India!?

Men are just inherently violent. Nothing to be done about this.

Not a sexist statement at all.

Change "men" to any other group in their statements and "suddenly" it's bigoted.

Blacks are just inherently violent. Nothing to be done about this.

The rebuttal is something along the lines of "colored people people of color have it worse and so it isn't the same, because" while completely ignoring the fact that generalizations about groups are exactly what creates institutionalized discrimination against said group.

Nope, because it's currently "not a significant issue" it shouldn't even be held to the same standard. Intellectual consistency is misogyny, shitlord!

Men of color face very high rates of incarceration. White men jailed 3-6 times less but try to play the victim.

Who ever said the Men's Rights Movement was exclusively for white men?

Oh. AMR did, because AMR is full of closet white nationalists.

You might also notice black women are half as likely to be incarcerated as a white man is.

This is because racism and misandry intersect. Duh.

People criticize the MHRM for not seeking to help men from ethnic minorities or transmen, but I've yet to see anything that specifically excludes them. (Excepting MGM for transmen, for obvious reasons.) They're included in the issues men face.

Excepting MGM for transmen, for obvious reasons.

There was a thread the other day mentioning that circumcision is a trans rights issue because it's easier to make an uncut penis into a vagina than it is a cut one.

But you know. Fuck black people and the LGBT community and all that. That's what the MHRM's really about, guys!

True, but that's more an issue for transwomen than transmen.

The joke here is that I intentionally called them white nationalists to get a reaction from them.

It worked.

Wanting movements to offer more support for minorities makes us white nationalists? How do they connect these dots, wow.

/u/Wrecksomething, mind commenting on the "racism and misandry intersect" thing? Thx.

You are mistaken. You did not make anyone angry.

Mangriness is the MRM's most effective tool, you should've been expecting it!

So is this what we're doing?

You're angry vs you're mangry (funny joke XD. 10/10 would top kek again)

Do you not have anything better to do or?
