My friend and fellow YouTuber Sydney Watson posted a video to YouTube the other day that did what other YouTubers have done recently, and that's comment on actress Milly Alcock torpedoing her upcoming movie "Supergirl" by doing what many an actor and actress have done before her, and that's open her mouth about social issues and raising her middle finger as high as she can to the audience.
What makes it worse for Alcock is that you'd figure Hollywood's denizens would've learned by now to just shut up and not say anything that would endanger the success of their project, but nay. The people of Hollywood clearly aren't as smart as you or me, and Alcock seems to represent the more dense among them, as one of her first targets was "Christian dads."

Sydney's video, while good, didn't say anything that was outright bombastic. She laid down a simple truth about film promotion, in that you don't alienate your fans. Pure and simple. You don't weave in socio-political matters when the film doesn't need it. Basic logic, well put by Sydney.
But she did say something that is apparently so enraging and so unforgivable to the left that they began an attack campaign against her.
"Attacking men is bad for business."
As Sydney noted in her follow-up video, the left began attacking her relentlessly, not just stopping at posts on X, but TikToks attacking her as well.
What's interesting is that the attacks don't actually address what Sydney is saying. Their line of attack is to call her a "pick me" or suggest that Sydney is simply defending men in hopes of getting their approval. I can tell you personally that she doesn't care one war or another who gives her approval, but the truth of the accusation doesn't matter.
But that's hardly the focal point.
What I found interesting was how fast the backlash spread, and how much interaction posts mentioning her got, and why it happened with this specific subject. Not Supergirl, not Alcock, and not female actresses. The subject I'm talking about is the suggestion that men shouldn't be attacked for being men.
A while back, I made a YouTube video that was wildly successful, which covered the reactions around the game "PRAGMATA." For the thumbnail, I decided to do something simple. I had the young heroine, Diana, pointing at big, bold blue lettering that matched her jacket that said 'MEN ARE PRETTY AWESOME, ACTUALLY."
I found it interesting that this video received the most dislikes I've ever gotten on a video (almost 800), but also that the video attracted its own battalion of anti-male haters. To be sure, they didn't attack me like they attacked Sydney — any woman who tells feminists they're wrong must be destroyed with prejudice — but the brigade that went after my video was as unreasonably hostile.
And oddly, well seen.
I'll let you explore the post replies for yourself, and if you do so, try to pay attention to the rate of likes and responses, and how even the most ridiculous and asinine responses got a boatload of interactions.

The interaction rate for this is incredibly interesting. Leftists post stuff all the time, and sometimes it blows up, but it's usually due to conservatives getting involved and creating a war in the comments section.
But this is a pure, uncut, leftist circle-jerk of hate.
This particular subject seems to get an extra bit of attention from the left, and I have to wonder why.
Could it be that there are just that many rabid feminists on the internet? Could be. The perpetually miserable do love their company, and the internet is the best place to find people who fit your specific brand of misery.
But I'm not so sure.
If you ask me, I think a lot of these accounts that go around and hit like on posts that no sane person would hit like on aren't real. I'm not telling you anything new, of course. You knew a lot of the interactions leftist posts get that seem really far out of the realm of believably interacted with had some fakery going on with them, but what I find interesting is that the fakery is directed toward this particular subject with regularity.
Why does the left not want people to think that men are good and that not attacking them is wise? Why are they so invested in keeping the hate for men flowing freely?
Why are they so scared of men?
Looking at men's voting habits, I think we can easily conclude that men pose a massive threat to leftism, and the best course of action is to divide women and men, almost like some sort of quarantine, to make sure women aren't affected by the mind virus of men's logical thinking. They want to drag as many women into their realm, teach them to despise, resent, and be terrified of men, not talk to them, or God forbid, listen to them.
That's why when another woman suggests something along the lines of not mistreating men, which Sydney did, they attack relentlessly. That's why when you suggest men are actually pretty great, like I did, there's a wave of hate launched after the video.
Men are scary to the left.
