All men have a race and a national origin. When we dehumanize men and say that a vicious animal is safer than them, we are normalizing dehumanization and violence. Which, in the United States, will eventually lead to violence against men who are disproportionately black, brown, Muslim, and foreign born.
Which is partially why black men are murdered at such high rates - they aren’t seen as “people”, they’re seen as superpredators. And is also why it is easy to turn away refugees at the border - because they’re all soldiers in a migrant caravan coming to kill us. And is why Israel can claim they killed a dangerous Hamas terrorist when, in reality, all they did was murder a 12 year old boy.
When men are seen as inherently harmful and women are seen as inherently harmless, dehumanization and prejudicial violence occurs. This meme was astroturfed by right wing organizations to help accomplish that goal. We should reject it.
Holy shit look at those mental gymnastics
