A lot of the positions you’re thinking of the person taking are extremely competitive. So, while that situation is unenviable, you can also think of it as promoting a more worthy candidate.

Still doesn’t pass over the simple idea that there should be more jobs available. (Maybe even more judges/lawyers/doctors)

more of one of those would be great.

I'm generally against snitching, but if I get to ruin a man's life it does get awfully tempting.

Ah, so you don't want to report illegal activities because it's the right thing to do morally, but because you can be vindictive against an overly generalised group of people?

yeah I don't think snitching is good, and its definitely not safe or without social cost when the target of it is popular, and the entire concept ofva hierarchal power structure makes me a little uneasy, but I do enjoy hurting men. especially shitty men who do shit like rape.

like, I know rapists rights and all that and I should be more fair to consentually-challenged men, but I guess I'm just a bad person, and im okay with that.

This will be taken the wrong way, as usual, but...

I wish society would both encourage such reporting without subtle victim blaming, which is what discourages so many to say anything for years, if ever. I also wish society wouldn't assume one side is right and the other wrong before the evidence is out. Some men's lives have been ruined by false allegations. I'm not going to argue about how few, lots of them are also a problem. But we should be an innocent before proven guilty society. We aren't, and people will still look at someone who ended up innocent after a false claim as if they did do something wrong.

Ruin the guys who are rapists. But sometimes that claim is used as a weapon without any substance, and that's terrible for those who need justice done. I wish we could do better than that.

We'll see how much of all that gets twisted around to mean something else I didn't say... :/
