Flat out lying is not a good idea.

Your exact words....."You can find some bad anti men rubbish too if you go looking for it"

You literally said male bashing or hate can be found if you go out looking for it. As if it's not there unless you hunt for it.

You don't have to "go looking for" male bashing, male expectations: financially; dating; roles; fighting and more. Even in courts. Especially dating/relationships which is a big pull on young men that whether you care to acknowledge definitely has many double standards for both men and woman. Acknowledging only the issues woman face, but blowing off issues men face is part reason why many flock to that content.

This is way more nuanced, and to dismiss that is part of the growing problem.

There is nothing comparable for "Men bashing and hating" on this scale or scope and the past decade of politics in the West demonstrates that succicently.

This is exactly what I mean. The problem is far more nuanced than you care to acknowledge. Your attitude totally dismissing it is why some flock to the content.

The type of people who are all for addressing a woman's concerns, woman bashing, woman hate, expectations for a woman...... but very quick to dismiss expectations of a man, labels thrown at man, problems a man faces.

You wonder why that content is growing, but fail to grasp this dismissal attitude is in some part why. Redpill content acknowledges some of the problems men do actually face.

Does woman hating/bashing culture exist? Ofc it does.
Should it be condemned at every turn? Ofc.
However the attitude that since woman hating/bashing culture exists, that somehow issues men face is non existent, doesn't matter, or how you characterized it that you have to "go looking for it" is what's pushing some men into redpill content.

Which again, here comes the nuance that I'm sure my post will get misconstrued. To be crystal clear, redpill content goes off in the toxic extreme route of talking about almost anything. The point I'm making isn't to say, "ya! Redpill content is great content people should listen to!" Redpill content is awful. My point is why it's growing. Redpill content takes issues men do actually face, takes advantage of that since no one else wants to acknowledge those issues are even issues, then profit off a toxic masculinity approach on dealing with those issues.
