Reply to comment by IamSauerKraut in This is a long shot, but a 22 yo male has plans to rape/murder his 19 yo ex girlfriend. Post history suggests they're in Maine. by mycatisawhore

I don't live in Maine or belong to this sub. The guy sounds real and reddit seems to think so too. Why dismiss something when someone's life could be in danger?

I agree. You are not an alarmist, you just want to know if it is real you tried, and hopefully the right person sees it.

Thank you. Violence against women is so common that it's been normalized. Claiming some dude's explicitly violent post is fake is misogyny in action.

Wtf? No, violence against women is not normalized. If anything, violence against men has been normalized, because they "can take it ". Maybe this poster has asked for help and hasn't gotten it . Not saying their intentions are good or healthy at all, but when people are pushed away when asking for help I don't know what you expect.

With all that said, maybe you should change the post title to "help me find this rape victim and get him some help "

Violence against women is so normalized that you refuse to see it as wrong or preventable as evidenced by your claim that men are the true victims here. Yes, toxic masculinity exists and prevents men from seeking mental help, which then results in women dying. He's a rape victim who plans to rape and kill his ex and you appear to be in support of that with your whataboutism. You can choose to help prevent a murder and get this guy the help he needs or you can keep scrolling, but defending this him is gross.
