    If men must bear collective guilt for everything bad ever done by other man, can we also take collective pride in everything good ever done by other men?https://twitter.com/nytopinion/status/1055092300626436099 …

    Men, we may not be Harvey Weinstein or Bill Cosby, but we are collectively complicit with a sexist mind-set rooted in the same toxic culture from which these men emerged. #IamSexist https://nyti.ms/2D1W7GW

        It is the paradox of the modern left. Whites must bear collective guilt, but it is a sin for them to feel collective pride. Men must bear collective guilt, but again no collective pride. For women and minorities, is the opposite.

        It all makes a lot more sense when you don't think about it too much.

        There is something weirdly religious to all that. You must be punished to have salvation.

        No. And it's disappointing that you don't get this. Here's the crucial difference: you weren't complicit in the good things done by the other men of history. You weren't involved. You *are* involved with the bad things happening now with sexism in our culture.

        If all men were not complicit in the good things of the past, surely they are ALSO all not complicit in the bad things of the past? If all men are systemically involved in the bad things in the current culture, then surely they are ALSO all systemically involved with the good?

        I did. Can you please explain what you mean? Just assume I’m curious and well intentioned yet too dumb to understand unless you explain it.

        And are women collectively complicit for a mindset rooted in the same toxic cultures where false rape claims occur?

        Women are also collectively complicit in the matriarchal conspiracy to deny the conceptual masculine from the right of reproduction and the bearing of children.

        The joke was funny. The fact that in today's academic culture, you had to tell us it was a joke, not so funny.

        @nytopinion Absurd! With some exceptions of course, men have fought to protect and worked to provide for women/children for centuries. Not sure why we can't celebrate our differences and be thankful for what each brings to the table. Sick of this nonsense!

        In what universe? Credit for the achievements of men is levied purely at the individual, not males as a gender.
