#notallmen practice violence against women but #YesAllWomen live with the threat of male violence. Every. Single. Day. All over the world.

      @schemaly It distracts from real issues of why these mass shootings occur so much more often in US even as violence in gen'l decreases.

      @davidgaliel also, this implies that US immune from misogyny and that wealth disparities are not related to same.

      @schemaly Focusing on mass gun shootings does NOT require abandoning other civil rights issues. Talk about binary thinking!

      @davidgaliel this is impossible in twitter. Misogyny as the expression of mental illness and in culture at large is a civil rights issue.

      @schemaly no disagreement. Mass shootings in US are also a civil rights issue. or, do they matter only when women are explicitly targeted?

      @davidgaliel of course not, I'm saying we culturally resist understanding the reality/role of toxic masculinity in all of our systems

      @schemaly there are no problems that are human problems, just "male" problems?

      @davidgaliel it is a luxury to assume this is true, one that I do not enjoy. Do you doubt that women's human rights are more negotiable?

      @schemaly This mass shooting is of a type with many other mass shootings in the US. It is wrong to exploit as "men v women".

      @davidgaliel have you looked at trends in murder suicides in US? Or gendered nature of mass shootings? (1)

      @schemaly This was a mass murder of human beings - not a salvo in the war of the sexes.

      @davidgaliel war of sexes is mis categorization of issue and focused on very traditional binary ideas
