I think there is a stupid propensity to overcorrect in the mainstream media about polarizing issues for profit which has been normalized by repeated messaging and has spread into our normal lives like a disease.

Violence again women is very real and men have been the main inflictors of it. However violence against men isn't physical because just biology. So it takes more insidious forms which combined with expectations of masculinity makes it so much more worse.

If we chose to selectively condemn the former kind of visible violence without protesting the more hidden kind, it is equally toxic as condoning violence against women.

Proudly lauding an app that enables scaling up of this kind of toxicity without any recourse by giving women carte blanche is another form of extremism.
