    What if constantly calling a system that fails men “the patriarchy” was part of the problem?

    What if calling a system that blames all men for a system that benefits a tiny elite was a large reason why so many men are totally dead disenfranchised with the concept? If there was even a one percent chance that was true - would you stop it doing it?
