I couldn't believe my eyes seeing this advice to teach young boys to hit girls so as to restore the boys' self esteem and pride.

This is the kind of toxic belief that shouldn't be allowed to proliferate here and yet is embraced with open arms by other users.

That boys can only regain their pride and self esteem by hitting girls leads directly to more violence against women and girls.

Lemmy.world, especially, is really bad about this. I try to avoid comms on that server, other than the animal and food groups, which are noticeably more reasonable.

    I hate this kind of instance-ism. It's just a very unjust way of looking at your fellow lemmings.

    Instances mean basically nothing.

    I'm on .world because it's the first instance I came across when I joined and my experience has been fine.
