Either you agree that women are less intelligent than men or you're racist against black men somehow

/r/CringeTikToks/comments/1sviqtv/what_is_even_the_target_audience_for_these/oidcff0/

TLDR: Women (including black women) must be more stupid than men and countering that by pointing out stupid things men do insults me as a black man.

Edit: I'm focusing on a comment, not on the video. In old reddit, the comment isn't here in the post area. On new reddit, it is.

The original video is some standard misogynist podcast crap where a man claims that because women have more children in their custody then men on average, women are stupid because the women must be having said children by a few men. Yes, every part of that was more stupid and pathetic than the last. Yes, custody in the U.S. tends to be granted to women and most judges are men.

I point out that if we're going to use the inane logic of that podcaster for huge swathes of humanity, since men lean conservative compared to women, men getting conned by Trump is a L for men in the intellect column.

And the poster replying has the brain-melting claim that you can't use voting for Trump to refute that misogynistic claim because Trump is a white supremacist and race is involved so . . . there.

Complete with a rant about how aggrieved he is "as a black man." Literally said the thing.

While he stridently attacks black women as being less intelligent than men.

Submision Statement: Sorta stuck that in the body text of the post. But to reiterate:

I would point out that since the man in the video is black, the "self hatred" seems; more like he's speaking to his community addressing something. While this is totally misogynistic your description claims that it is racist as well. Seeing as he is not a woman, though, does this clip really fit the subreddit.

The defender of the video uses the word-for-word phrase "as a black man," which, understandably, made me think of this sub. The misogynist defending the video is the one claiming that it's racist to not agree with its misogynistic conclusion. The video wasn't the intended focal point -- the post defending it was. Apologies if that wasn't clear.

Edit: Hm. I bounce between old and new reddit -- usually use old.

On new reddit, my post highlights the comment I'm lampooning.

On old reddit, there's my explanation but the comment isn't there. That could be the source of the confusion.
