Dude. Life is too short. Spoons are too hard to come by. Whoever is saying that to you, block them. Block them right now. For good measure, block one or two people for the mere crime of showing clips containing this bullshit rhetoric.

Not people complaining while offering wholesome alternatives, mind you, like Jordan_the_Stallion8 or Speech Prof or Joey Swoll (YOU MUST NEVER BLOCK JOEY SWOLL!)

But if you're following some internet personality, and they show these weird extremists to you, and all you feel is anger afterwards... get rid of the people showing you the crazy man-haters. You do not need that in your life.

There will always be some portion of the population that seeks to invalidate every form of pain. Every, single form of pain!

saying rape victims are "asking for it"
saying poor people just need to work harder
saying ADHD folks like you and I are only held back by our laziness
saying black people who get the shit kicked out of them by a police officer "should have tried to deescalate"
saying white men live easy lives

Often these people are narcissists, and are fed by the outrage they generate. Sometimes they are just set in their ways, and don't realize that science and society have moved past their obsolete worldview.

But in all cases, these people aren't worth your limited energy.

Block them and subscribe to ADHD groups on all of your apps.

Thanks.

I don't deliberately follow that sort of stuff, that would not be good for my mental health. I certainly don't seek out that sort of rhetoric; I know some people do. Cynically, I would say those people must enjoy it.
