No need for a gender war if you just stop downplaying women’s issues.

Just food for thought

I don’t want a war. I want cooperation.

The billionaires lovingly refuse to cooperate. They’re going to keep taking more than their fair share whether we like it or not.

If you find a non-violent way to get billionaires to cooperate, I would love to hear it.

This ad was directly below your comment when I was scrolling and I thought that’s what someone had answered, until I realized it was an ad… šŸ¤¦šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø so I obviously had to put it here.

It was placed right in the comments as a comment. I’ve never seen that before. 🤣

I just don’t think laughter, hugs, and happy tears will work with the billionaires. Thanks anyway, Vitas Healthcare.

I don’t have answers. I do know the root of cooperate is Co-Op. which would be a key word for those of the socialist or communist mind. Cooperation isn’t far off that idea. You can’t just over throw the rich and sing all is fine and dandy. There will always be rich and always be poor. There will always be enmity between the 2. There has never been a great answer or solution. Only cooperation, respect, and love amongst our fellow man ever really soothes the situation.

There will always be rich and always be poor.

This is only inevitable if we choose to let it be.

There is no other way

Social and economic inequality is not a inherent part of the human experience.

u/its_garden_time_nerd 9h ago

Well yeah obviously, but the rest of us understand that we're FAR past that kind of pipe dream and stuck in the tarry mire of shitty, shity reality.

It’s human nature. It always has been

u/Awkward_Turnover_983 9h ago

That isn't one of the options, sadly

u/Similar-Sir-2952 8h ago

It’s always the answer.

u/RobinsEggViolet 8h ago

If the rich were planning on cooperating with the poor to improve the world, they would have done it already.

u/Similar-Sir-2952 7h ago

Some do, some don’t.

u/lilmissbloodbath 6h ago

The time for cooperation may have already passed, my friend.

u/Sudden_Sentence_8534 10h ago

Maybe, but you're getting a gender war. The winner will fight in the class war!

u/Seienchin88 11h ago

Too bad.

Last time it was you can’t vote for genocide Harris and now it’s gender war time…

But it’s never class war time…

It is possible to be angry with and call out and try to right the subjugation of and violence against women and also see how misogyny plays a role in classism and systemic oppression. It's not as if it's some made up boogey man. Women have been saying it for years and years and years. Dismissing it as a "gender war" and a distraction from bigger problems is one of the reasons we haven't risen up yet against the ruling class.

How many wars can a good army fight at once? One. This is meant to cause division and splitting attention from the most important fight.

u/Seienchin88 7h ago

You take a very noble and ethically good approach here but haven’t you wondered why the hugely popular left wing messages like workers right, family rights, egalitarian education and of course destruction of large private monopolies and higher taxes on billionaires don’t turn into overwhelming voting success?

Because in every single western country messages like "all menā€œ only land with a smaller percentage of the population than is necessary for victory while it galvanizes opposition to it… Genocide Harris campaign was an absolute master stroke as a Democrat can’t seem to be indifferent to something as horrible as a genocide while Trump said he wants to turn Gaza into a holiday resort and no one on the right cared…

Yes, feel free to call people stupid and cynical but in the end economic left wing policies win elections, culture wars don’t.

ā€œI hate the gender warā€ mfs are always quiet when men are being spat on.

Like when Obama recently said that female leaders would be better than male leaders.

Don't be mad because it's true

u/Equivalent-Ambition 10h ago

What’s true?

u/saywgo 10h ago

Reading is fundamental

u/Equivalent-Ambition 10h ago

I want to hear you say it. And explain why you believe it.

u/Few-Pen9912 9h ago

Women are better leaders than men because they are on average more cooperative and have better emotional intelligence.Ā 

1

u/Hablian 6h ago

Studies show that on average women and men have roughly equal levels of cooperations and emotional intelligence, albeit typically along different lines. For example, men are on average better at regulating their own emotions while women are better at regulating the emotions of others.

So not better, just different.

I'm fairly sure you're just a female supremacist.
