the fundamental disconnect between the manosphere and reality is that they are incapable of understanding that this is - according to every woman I’ve ever met - the sexiest thing a man has ever done

The 50501 organizers in LA had a “post protest party”… They used a picture of ice goons abducting Romaysa in the background of their party flyer - when the raised funds or the protest itself had nothing to with ICE abducting pro-Palestine students. this is disgusting.
