I entirely agree they are not comparable, but they seem to comprise two of the three main “freedoms” craved by libertarians.

First two goals of any libertarian project are legal weed and fucking minors.

Guessing football and wrestling in high school, growth hormones in their meat, and an element of obesity. These are all guesses though, not shitting on the yanks.

The ultimate goal is equality, but it takes targeted support of women to attain that.

I'm not saying that men's issues should remain unresolved, but the intent of the Tory MP is not to support men. It is to divide and conquer.

Who's responsibility includes reducing the disparity between men and women. Having a minister for men introduces parity in this regard, which therefore does nothing to advance the interest of women in a male dominated system

This is the same difference between Black Lives Matter and All Lives Matter. Nobody is saying that men should not be advocated for, but elevating the issue of men's rights to ministerial level does not help resolve the larger issue of the systemic disadvantage of women in society.

It’s a disingenuous argument. The MP is from the Conservative Party, i.e., the right wing arsehole party.

You may have noticed how the Right Wing Playbook has been imported from America. Increasingly, when things aren’t going politically well, they’ll have a look at the Playbook and pick a Culture Wars trope. This is one such instance, intended only to divide.

It's such a badly written and blatantly disingenuous article.

I totally agree with you. What I want is pie in the sky. Without regulation, nothing will change.
