  • Experiencing social consequences for saying something people disagree with is not infringing on your freedom. Unless they band together and try to go further than simply not liking what you have to say, how is that stopping men from saying their opinion on 4chan?

    Independently, I wouldn’t call 4chan a liberal place. As far as I know, 4chan started and participated in activities in the past that go far beyond simply not liking an opinion. They doxxed, harassed and threatened people, among other things. And with support from many people on that platform.

    Which of those issues are in place because men are oppressed as being inferior instead of being gender expectations that feminism targets? Meaning: which are a consequence of gender expectations?

    High suicide rate is connected to men more likely to have access to guns and because they are less likely to go to a doctor because of gender expectations.

    Loneliness is on the rise for everyone. Some studies find more loneliness in women. The idea of “the male loneliness epidemic” is meme that just generates tons of clicks and engagement. It’s not real.

    For the work place it’s again a problem of gender expectations. It’s not because people see men as inferior.

    So are the next three.

    Men are actually more likely to get custody if they ask for it. You have fallen for a manosphere conspiracy theory that has no basis in reality. Women more often get custody because when both parents work, the men’s job is respected, the women’s isn’t. They get automatically assumed to be the caregiver because of gender expectations. The only thing a man has to do is literally ask for custody. On the other hand, a single mother who is expected to do the brunt of the caregiving, can’t force the father to take more time with the kids. Simply because of gender expectations.


  • Yeah, I know… I’ve given up at that front with some of the comments here… It’s unfortunate, but I feel the whole issue with many topics in nutrition is that it’s unreasonable to expect for most people to read up on organic chemistry and metabolism lol And even if you have some understanding, much is still far from understood well.

    So most people end up with a superficial (mis)understanding. And Fruits, Corn Syrup, fresh juice, “100 % juice but actually it’s concentrate” get all tossed together in one bag because omg Fructose.

    I’ve certainly seen an increase in people on- and offline claiming fruits are essentially death cookies. Sometimes even expanding that to peas etc. because they realised Fructose is in them.



  • Health impacts.

    I feel like you try to derail the conversation and move goal posts to “be right”.

    Fruits and vegetables contain Fructose, Fructose has a smaller number of negative health impacts than Saccharose and Fructose is metabolized differently in our body than other sugars.

    The intravenous administration or other consumption of very high doses of Fructose, often in obese and/or diabetic patients in studies, has been identified as a potential risk factor for fatty liver.

    That doesn’t mean eating fruits and vegetables increases the risks for a fatty liver. It also doesn’t mean Fructose and Saccharose are the same.
