Totally, the whole thing is inflammatory hyperbole.
I get the point that while not all men™, enough men exhibit predatory behaviour to the extent that a decently large percentage of women fear the average man more than the average bear.
But this is just deliberately sowing division, and more shows how little both sides know about both bear behaviour and crime statistics

Women should fear the average man far more than the average bear because they will almost certainly never encounter the average bear, but will encounter thousands of men.
That said, the entire argument belies a deep misunderstanding of statistics. Many women, perhaps most women, have experienced trauma at the hands of men. Many men, perhaps most men, have not been perpetrators of that trauma. There is not a 1-1 relationship between victimized women and guilty men - there is a minority of men who negatively affect many women.
The entire thing has become flamebait and it is impossible to have an actual discussion about it. The point is to start a conversation about how women feel unsafe in society - not to talk about bear attacks and incels.
Femcels complaining about incels. You people are the spiderman meme.
