(48,121 posts)if they are not coming from that group but have an opinion that is like that group on a particular issue what does pointing out that a group they could care less about holds the same opinion?
It is simply an attempt to associate them with something seen as a negative and does not address the opinion at all.
We all have done it, it is easy to do, but that does not make it right.
I don't read mra stuff online, don't really care to. I do post a lot on reddit (60k link karma) but stick to the news sections and IamA sections. From what I have seen on here there is an mra section there that people bring up on DU. Does it follow that because I post on reddit and some on reddit are in an mra subreddit that things I say are from there somehow? If people hate what they say and don't agree why are they spending all their time reading what such people are saying in the first place and then using what those folks say to label people here when their opinion does not match with someone Else's here?
I don't care what mra types think. I am sure they have some valid opinions on court issues and custody, but that also bleeds over into feminism and labeling women as somehow different from men and being better/more naturally suited to raising kids. A stereotype they don't want with an affect that men don't want either. So if I agree that in the past it has been a big issue for men in custody cases would you point out for some reason that mra people think that too? Would it make it any less valid?
