    Judge me if you must, but I think it goes too far. I’m a guy at the moment (probably an egg), but there are a lot of oppressed people who fall under the umbrella term “men”

    Yes, men suck, but that’s largely because of the patriarchy and the system we live in. As an other poster said the guys killing themselves are not White trust fund guys.

      Men created the patriarchy. Without the patriarchy there would be no men. Without men there would be no patriarchy. I’m not really sure what you mean by this. Under socialism, capitalists won’t largely suck, but there wouldn’t be capitalists. The individuals who would have been capitalists wouldn’t largely suck, but they’d be completely different people at that point.

        CW: Talk about Suicide

        In short. Yes and men created capitalism. Yet a lot of men suffer under capitalism similar to the patriarchy. The men who profit the most from capitalism or patriarchy are most likely not the ones who kill themselves rather its often the most vulnerable and oppressed men.

        The OP also felt misleading posting this comment in a vacuum.

        I just consider jokes about suicide at least in bad taste having had a suicidal phase in the past. (I fully admit that I have a biased position due to that)
