In the hours following former President Donald Trump’s election victory, Google searches related to 4B — a fringe South Korean feminist movement that made a name for itself in the mid to late 2010s — surged in the United States.

    A message to my fellow guys: if you dislike this, guess what: it’s real easy to stop being the target of it. All you have to do is quit being a misogynistic, authoritarian piece of shit.

      This isn’t targeted at just the shitty dudes. It’s no sex with any dudes period until they get their rights back.

      Respectfully, this isn’t on dudes.

      Four and eight years ago young men overwhelmingly supported Bernie Sanders, and they were ridiculed for it. Dems even made up an epithet for it: Bernie Bros.

      The perspective you’re showing in this reply is why Republicans won. You can’t make it very clear you don’t want young men to vote for you and then be surprised when they don’t.

        What are you talking about? Bernie Bros are the diametric opposite of the problem. My comment is addressing all the men but them!

              You can live in 2008 and 2014, but I can guarantee you (if what you saw this week wasn’t enough) that people are a tad more concerned with their inability to pay for groceries and the necessity of rationing their meds.

              The voters told Dems what they wanted. Dems told them to be joyful about being in poverty.

              They didn’t vote Trump out of hatred of women. (Most, at least. Some surely did.) They voted Trump because Harris represented a very shitty status quo.

      For real, it’s astounding(not really) how much women appreciate not being treated and viewed like they are things to be owned and controlled
