          Yeah, I had heard of motherless before but did. It know how bad it really was and then teaching people how to abuse is sickening.

            Yeah in some way I guess it’s inevitable some fucked up things like this will be on the Internet but a part of me wouldn’t have expected a community as big as this one sounds. Where people are comfortable talking about this scumbag behavior.

              Worth it to note: many sources inaccurately cite “62 million men” taking part in it, but that’s not what CNN found or claimed. That number is the total amount of visitors to the Motherless website in February. CNN found on the scale of “over a thousand” men in the group chat they joined, and found ~20,000 videos of it on Motherless with some reaching over 50,000 views. Still horrible, and I doubt that’s the only group, but it isn’t 62 million at least.

                Thanks for that. I didn’t even notice the number but that is definitely smaller than I was imagining

        This is disturbing.

        Then I searched that “Eye check” thing and there are even videos on YouTube. WTF. I hope they are honeypots.

          Rules…

          Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women’s community is a good fit for them.

            Oh sorry, I got here via the “all” feed and fit neither of these categories. If you feel I’m intrusive or unhelpful just delete my comments. I’ll make sure to start away from blahaj.

              Ah it’s just this community (Womensstuff) that’s women only, not all of blahaj.

    This whole thing reminds me of the very recent case of Gisele Pelicot and how her husband arranged for similar treatment as what these men talk about in the chat group.

    It’s very telling that the trial and conviction of her husband and the fifty other men who raped her was an exception to the rule.

        This is a women’s only community.

        Go whine about misandry literally anywhere else on Lemmy where you are more accepted. We don’t do this shit here.

            You want logic? A quarter of you voted for him. A quarter didn’t. Half of you didn’t fucking care enough to even try and keep him out of office.

            Don’t try and ascribe this shit to “maga”. This is a social enabling.

    I disagree that it’s hate. Hate is much more directed. I believe that it is more about not seeing women as people at all. That’s not hatred any more than fucking a fleshlight is hatred.

    I don’t agree with hate.

    I think it’s a whole lot more complicated than that and involves a certain amount of disbelief (as in “believe women” levels of disbelief), and guilt.
