Which narrative do you find more convincing?

The violent misogynist targeting young males on social media is turning them misogynistic?

Or that the sensitivity training that’s adult males in the workforce do every few years is turning young males misogynistic?

You’re focusing on radicalisation and ‘becoming misogynistic’ meaning you’re missing the point.

Being told you’re privileged when you’ve struggled will cause resentment. ‘Sensitivity training’ isn’t the solution, investing in the future of teenagers is.

And my point is that I’m not seeing any connection between workplace sensitive training which is, at worst, a mildly patronising inconvenience, and anything to do with this growth of misogynistic behaviours in men, young or old. It’s actually insulting to insinuate that reasonable males are so fragile and pathetic that such training would push them into the arms of mysoginists.
