Riiight? Like, women shouldn't be hitting people for sure and there should be consequential. But men celebrating that women getting knocked out gives me the creeps. Honestly, if it was anyone substantially larger knocking out someone so much weaker of any gender or age it would be wrong. Imaging a body builder knocking out an old man or a small boy? Very wrong. I think everyine could agree there. But reddit just loves to celebrate this specific brand if violence on women.

People's outrage would never reach criticality in those cases as men are currently viewed as expendable and a socially acceptable target of hate in general society at large

You're in a bananas level victim mindset if you genuinely think this. My whole state freaked out because the police shoved an old man over on camera once.

Here a kid, a little 5 year old boy was violated, tortured then murdered by both the mother and the mother's girlfriend and no one batted an eye even after they admitted they did it to spite the dad who's been searching for custody for years

It's weird you even know about it if no one batted an eye. How did it even make the news?

How does a whole state freaks out and have motor ability to be shoved and shove at the same time?

This sentence is such gibberish I don't even know how to respond.
