Basically the problem. It has a click bait title it's points are poorly defended. At what point are you separating an ill thought out opinion piece for interest and a revenue from a genuine properly back up article.
Anyway pointing out junk points in an argument is worth while criticism. Not everything idea has merit and it's not an issue when someone points this out.
Agreed. I'm surprised this thread has this many pages. At the very least the article should have tried to present some evidence/data that black men are *especially* misogynistic. An article claiming that is fine, but it should back up the assumptions, first.
For example the author states:
Intraracially, however, our relationship to and with black women is not unlike whiteness's relationship to us. In fact, it's eerily similar.
OK, great. I'm sure they'll have some stats to back that claim up... (he never does).
We're the ones for whom the first black president created an entire initiative to assist and uplift. We're the ones whose beatings and deaths at the hands of the police galvanize the community in a way that the beatings and sexual assaults and deaths that those same police inflict upon black women do not.
Huh? Black women got beat as well, and we also had the black first lady, OK. By the way, Obama is just as white as he is black, whereas Michelle and the children are majority Black. Let's not mention that, though...
And nowhere is this more evident than when considering the collective danger we pose to black women and our collective lack of willingness to accept and make amends for that truth.
Hey, more unsubstantiated claims.
Can't say I'm surprised. Like the author says, black men have poor educational attainment, haha. Joking aside, this is a trash article that really doesn't warrant serious discussion. It's a shitpost, basically. The only conclusion we can draw from this article is that its author, per their experiences, is sexist and is trying to project that on all black men.
