In a way, I’m flattered that right-wing extremists are so obsessed with our movement.

First of all, I can’t agree with some of the controversial ideas promoted by MGTOW and Incel. I think they should be held accountable for their actions. However, it’s still apparent that the anger can be traced back to the societal conflict between men and women. But aside from that, you can’t help but notice that right-wing extremists are going all out to manipulate us. Whether it’s promoting hypermasculinity, patriotism, nationalism, or religious dogma, they all believe that the answer to the crisis between men and women is to go hypermasculine and ultra-conservative. They would say that the traditional masculine roles are always the right solution, that women should be oppressed, that feminism is the only problem, that the conflict between men and women is a result of feminism.<br><br>It’s interesting how they always see us as their proxies, their foot soldiers, as a means to an end. They believe that masculine men would be their most loyal followers. They believe that we would automatically be their ‘friends’ if we could hate and fear the right enemies. They want us to believe that we should be angry at the right people and the right ideologies. But how does all of this benefit us? That’s right, it doesn’t.<br><br>They want to sacrifice our lives and our rights to achieve their right-wing agendas, even though it’s clear that it would only worsen our lives. We have a hard time finding good jobs, getting a good education, becoming respected members of society, being happy… They have no solutions for our problems and they only care about their power and their status.<br><br>If we adopt ultra-conservative dogma, we would only end up sacrificing our rights and freedoms. What a bone-headed move, right? It’s stupid to believe that we’ll live better lives if we have fewer options and fewer choices. Right-wing extremists want to control our behaviors and turn our lives upside down to suit their agendas.<br><br>Remember that having few options is worse than having no options at all. It’s like being stuck in a chess game; you have few ways to move and the game always ends with a checkmate. Right-wing extremists want to confine us in a way that benefits them, not us, adding more burdens to our already hard lives.<br><br>That’s why I don’t like right-wing extremism. They want to sacrifice us, but sacrifice nothing in return. I don’t like to be anyone’s foot soldier and I don’t like my rights and my happiness sacrificed for nothing.<br><br>In a way, I’m flattered that they have such a high opinion of us. But on the flip side, they should not mistake flattery for subservience. In other words, we are not stupid enough to be coerced into their foot soldiers.
