      You realize those prejudices get compounded, right?

      What’s the name of that highway in canada, where they raped and murdered and dumped the corpses of native women?

      Never a lead on any of those cases. I don’t think one was male, but hey, maybe there were a couple

        The varies WILDLY in how and when it is enforced, you fucking buffoon. Why isn’t trump in prison for fucking ever right now?

        I’ve never even heard of someone else collecting felonies like beanie babies and not spending the rest of their life in jail.

        There’s black folks Still in prison for petty weed crimes, on state charges, in states where it’s legal now and has been for years

        The counter-claim is not that racism is exclusively a men’s issue. The counter-claim is that the claim “men’s rights don’t vary by state” is false, as evidenced an example of how men’s rights do vary by state. The implied part that should have been explicit is that the way racism manifests from state to state also has gendered aspects, with some disproportionately affecting women (e.g. hair/dress policing in the workplace) but some also disproportionately affecting men (e.g. incarceration). That is to say, racism and sexism are intersectional. Another example might be how custody rights typically vary from state to state often unjustly disfavoring the father, given all other things being equal.

        I’d suggest that this argument does not go against the underlying position of OP that “patriarchy bad”, rather it corrects OP to highlight how institutional sexism typically falls along normative/conservative conceptions of gender for men too. That is to say “patriarchy bad mostly for women, but also bad for men too”.
