You should know. Had it been a woman downloading those publicly available documents, she would have been untouchable, and instead we'd have a news article calling for that (presumably male) admin's head on a platter, to be replaced by a woman asap. The movement you've claimed to be a member of have long been calling for an end to due process for men accused of crimes. Now that the elites want to start World War 3, I think it's a bit too late to backpedal. Didn't you realize what the elites were really after by getting you to adopt the position that accusations are convictions and men who know how computers work are oppressors and incels and homosexuals and all that? I just hope everything you've done for the elites was worth it. Maybe it is? Who knows.

I think you know what I'm talking about. Elaboration would serve no purpose.

He's ranting about feminism and social justice warriors. Of course, he's gone off half-cocked. The mafiaa groups don't care if they nail a male or a female. I don't think that the various intel services care much either. If some chick had been caught doing the same thing this guy did, I give it at least 75% chance that she would have been charged. And, if some rich kid had been caught, the chances go down, whether male or female.
There's some kernel of truth to what he writes, but he's overstating his case, and being an obnoxious ass while doing so.

Yes, I get that. What I don't get is how he seems to be reading something into my views from previous post(s) which doesn't make sense.
Or he's a really crappy troll, or both. Probably both.

According to Runaway1956, "white hetero males have been targeted for extinction [soylentnews.org]."
