Some years ago I wrote a blog post about the sad fact that, very much unlike far-leftists, when anti-leftists try to promote and fight for some cause, if it doesn't immediately take hold, they just give up and move to something else. Sometimes they might try to fight for the cause for a few years but eventually it will just fade away and they will give up. Sometimes they give up in just mere weeks.
(There's a great deal of irony that being independent individualists who think for themselves and are not just brainwashed drones is both a strength and a weakness: It's rather obviously a strength because they are much harder to manipulate and dissuade into destructive behavior. But it's also a weakness in that trying to organize them is like trying to herd cats: They just don't want to follow the crowd, and even if they do show some interest for a little while, they quickly get tired of it if it doesn't seem to produce immediate results, and move to something else. And, thus, anti-leftists rarely achieve anything, and that's why the left is winning.)
One example of something that anti-leftist anti-feminists fought for several years was drawing attention to the discrimination against men in western societies. This was a thing for some years... and then it just faded away and nobody talked about it for something like ten years.
This is not because the situation has gotten better. On the contrary, the situation has only gotten worse and worse over the years.
The vast majority of western societies are still astonishingly misandrist to the core. As an example, ask pretty much anybody how prevalent is one-sided spousal violence where it's the woman who is the perpetrator and the man the victim, rather than the other way around, and almost every single person living in western countries will tell you that it's extremely rare. A microscopic fraction of all cases of spousal abuse and violence.
Yet, actual statistics show that when the violence is not mutual, ie. it's one-sided, it's about 50-50 whether the perpetrator is the man or the woman.
Societal attitudes towards this, however, are extremely biased. Nobody wants to believe men if they tell about being abused by their spouses. They are dismissed, they are not believed, they are laughed at, they are mocked. In some countries even law enforcement and the judicial system is strongly biased, having two very different standards depending on who is the perpetrator and who is the victim.
Many countries have numerous shelters for battered women to escape spousal abuse. To my knowledge there does not exist a single such shelter in the entire world for battered men. Not one. In fact, there was this one case where some organization tried to create such a shelter for men (I don't remember now which country it was), and feminists strongly and aggressively protested it. They could not give any rational reason why they were protesting it. They just hate men so deeply and think that men do not deserve any help, and any help that's provided to them has to be opposed and destroyed.
Courts of law in almost every single western country are heavily biased against men. It's a completely open secret (and sometimes even not even a "secret" at all) that courts give harder sentences to men than to women for the exact same crimes done in the exact same circumstances and context, the sole and only distinction being whether they are men or women.
(In fact, there was this rather telling example of a judge, I think it was in the US, who kind of let a Freudian slip through, and said in a press interview about a female criminal that he had sentenced that her crime was so heinous that he decided to sentence her the same way as he would have sentenced a man. Clearly showing his bias and how in this one instance he actually treated the woman equally to men.)
The list could go on and on and on. There are entire documentaries (sometimes even made by major news networks) about this.
Recently the topic has gotten a bit of a resurgence because of some high profile cases of celebrity spousal abuse where it was the woman doing the assaulting, as well as some celebrity women very openly and brazenly denigrating men and advocating for violence against them.
But, like always, the anti-leftists will talk about it for a few weeks or perhaps even a couple of months, then forget about it and move to something else. Meanwhile the problem will persist and nothing will be done about it. Once again.
And then they wonder why the left is winning. Anti-leftists should take a good long look in the mirror.
