I've never seen a single video on Lemmy of a dude punching a woman. That shit is on the front page of reddit every day.
Each individual video seems justifiable. Usually the girl is assaulting the dude first. But you have to wonder why videos of that act is a whole fucking genre into it'self.
I was on reddit for about 15 years and I don’t think I ever saw a video of a dude punching a women. What subs did you spend your time on?
R/incelsRus. ?
I'm not on Reddit enough to recognize that as a common thing, but I was looking into something the other day, ended up on Reddit, took a peek at the front page, and right near the top was a dude punching a woman.
Anecdote of course, but what are the odds it's not a regular occurrence?
Now when I was actually using Reddit on the regular I'd have mostly only ever stuck to my own subscriptions or whatever it was called. But now that I'm not a regular user and not logged in, it means all I ever see when I go over there is the "All" tab -- which is presumably where the woman punching content is showing up.
i remember seeing it a few times on the front page (r/all?) you get on old.reddit.com when not logged in
I haven't logged into my reddit account in almost a decade. A few weeks ago I was searching for something and ended up on the reddit front page, and I saw a video of a man punching a woman. It's not about how one curates their feed; it is what new users are served.
man my yt feed has been flooded recently with this shit.
generally, it's warranted, but I just keep asking myself, "why is YouTube force feeding me this garbage?" makes me wonder if they're trying to pump up the aggression against women so the US government can rip away more rights and protections for women.
I actually have never had that experience. Maybe something to do with how you curate your feed?
The amount of "The [clearly disproportionate response] was completely justified here" I used to see in the comments on that genre is terrifying.
