One of the problems with activism is that the enemy is hard to identify. Oh, sure feminism is an identifiable political group, but is feminism truly the enemy?
Our greatest enemy is our own sociobiology. Our sociobiology isn't egalitarian. It has embedded within it the double standard from which all the feminist double standards arise. We naturally view women as victims, and we naturally dismiss men as victims. We naturally view women as deserving of protection, and we naturally view men as being capable of fending for themselves. We have an aversion to violence committed against a woman, but we don't have the same aversion to it when committed against a man. Indeed, in many cases we expect him to dispense and absorb it.
The sociobio frame is the matrix if you ask me. It's the blue pill paradigm. All the feminist lies come from this base biological behavior, and we swallow them up as men because they align with our base sociobiological desires and preconceptions. Feminism is just more of the same archaic sociobiology at work.
This is just my own opinion, but unplugging from the matrix means two things. 1) Being able to stop seeing women as victims deserving of protection, provision, and all manner of aid (stop white knighting, force women to carry their own weight), and 2) being able to acknowledge your own vulnerability, and yes,
that means acknowledging that you can be a victim too (learning to prioritize your own safety, well being, and happiness over women's).

I don't mind the MRAs or Anti-Feminism guys on here based on what they say exactly. I dislike them because of what they don't say. They tell us about all these problems but don't give any solutions beyond unrealistic ones like "don't get married" or "don't interact with women".
That's a fair point. For alot of guys, I think game really is the solution, and I certainly won't tell them they're wrong.
